Ashton & Backwell United

The club was established in 1911 as Backwell United. After playing in the Bristol Church of England League, they progressed to the Bristol & Suburban League in the 1950s. In 1970 they transferred to the Somerset County League, becoming founder members of the new Division One. After gaining promotion to the Premier Division, the club won the league title in 1977–78. They went on to win the league in four successive seasons between 1979–80 and 1982–83, also winning the inaugural League Cup in 1982–83.

Backwell moved up to Division One of the Western League in 1983. They were Division One runners-up in 1989–90, but were unable to take promotion as they did not have floodlights. However, after lights were installed, they finished third in 1994–95 and were promoted to the Premier Division. They remained in the Premier Division until finishing bottom of the table in 2005–06, resulting in relegation to Division One. After finishing third-from-bottom of Division One in 2007–08, the club dropped back into the Premier Division of the Somerset County League.

In 2010 Backwell United merged with Ashton Boys and were renamed Ashton & Backwell United. A third-place finish in 2012–13 saw the club promoted back to Division One of the Western League. In 2021 they were promoted to the Premier Division based on their results in the abandoned 2019–20 and 2020–21 seasons. However, they resigned from the Western League during the 2022–23 season, dropping into Division One of the Somerset County League.
