The original Blyth Town was established in 1995 as a junior club, initially having three boys teams. They gradually expanded to more age groups, and added both men's and women's adult teams in 2002, with the men's team entering Division Two of the
Northern Alliance. The club were Premier Division champions in 2013–14, and the following season saw them win the treble of the Premier Division, Challenge Cup and George Dobbins League Cup. In 2015, the first team broke away from the main club to become a separate organisation. Despite winning their first four league games of the
2018–19 season, the club resigned from the league and folded on 28 August 2018 due to a lack of support and permanent home ground. After the breakaway club was renamed Blyth AFC, the original Blyth Town were admitted to Division Two of the Northern Alliance for the 2017–18 season. The
2023–24 season saw the club win Division Two of the Northern League, earning promotion to Division One. In
2024–25 they finished fifth in Division One, before going on to beat
Shildon 2–1 in the play-off semi-finals and then defeat
Newcastle Blue Star on penalties in the final to secure promotion to Division One East of the
Northern Premier League. ==Ground==
