The club was created in 1948 and has always played their football at the Martin's Hill Lane ground in the village of Burton in Dorset, England. Although a combined Burton and Sopley F.C. was a founder member of the Bournemouth Football League in the 1920's, the team disbanded during the war and was reformed as Burton F.C.


The club runs 4 teams in the Bournemouth Hayward League. 2 on Saturdays in divisions 3 and 6 and 2 on Sundays in divisions 2 and 9.


The football club continues to be part of the village with today's pavilion erected in 1969 with monies given by the late Katherine Chance. In the early days a post match wash took place alongside a standpipe and drain!


Burton Parish Council are supporting us in improvements & maintenance to the current ground & pavilion. This directive was given to the Parish Council when the ground was handed a 900 year lease by the owners Merrick Estates, at its inception.


The players and spectators have always enjoyed a post match gathering to discuss late tackles; great saves and goals. They do this at The Lamb Inn.
