History

Barton Town was formed in 1880, moving to the Marsh Lane ground in 1927. Town was one of the founder members of the Lincolnshire League, winning it in 1960/61, before embarking on its golden era over the following two decades, initially in the Midland League and then, particularly, in the Yorkshire League. The club returned to the Lincolnshire League in the early 1980s, winning the first division title in 1981/82. The Swans remained in the league for the next 10 years before dropping out for the usual off-field reasons, lack of help and finance. They merged with Barton Old Boys F.C. in 1995 to form Barton Town Old Boys F.C.
