Purton Football Club was established in 1924. They played in the
FA Cup in the six seasons preceding the
Second World War, but never advanced further than the Preliminary Round. They joined the
Hellenic Football League Division One in 1986 and won that division in 1995–96. After some league restructuring, they were placed in Division One West which they won in 2003–04, but on neither occasion was the team promoted to the Premier Division due to not meeting the relevant ground criteria (primarily regarding floodlights). The club stepped down to the
Wiltshire Senior League for 2017–18. After finishing bottom of the league's Premier Division in 2021–22, they were relegated to the newly formed Division 1 for the 2022–23 season. ==Ground==
