The original Huntingdon Town was formed in the 1800s and won the
Huntingdonshire Senior Cup eleven times before
World War I. They joined the
Peterborough & District League in 1922. Although they left the league in 1926, they returned the following year. Their second spell in the league ended in 1932, although they returned again in 1935. They remained in the league until merging with Huntingdon Wanderers to form
Huntingdon United in 1948. The modern club was established in 1980 as Montagu Football Club. They were later renamed Sun Football Club, before adopting their current name when transferring from the
West Anglian League to Division 2B of the
Cambridgeshire League in 1996. They were promoted to Division 1B at the end of the 1997–98 season, and went on to win the division in 1999–2000, as well as the Hunts Junior Cup, which they retained for the next two seasons. They were Division One champions in
2011–12, earning promotion to the Premier Division. In
2013–14 the club were Premier Division runners-up and won the League Cup. However, they finished bottom of the Premier Division in
2015–16 but were reprieved from relegation as two clubs left the league. However, after finishing bottom again the
following season, the club were relegated to Division One. At the end of the
2020–21 season they were transferred to Division One North of the
Eastern Counties League. After the
2022–23 season the club were moved to Division One of the
Spartan South Midlands League. ==Ground==
