History

Honiton Town were members of the Devon & Exeter League during the 1980s and 1990s, until withdrawing in 1997–98.^[1]

On rejoining the league, they stayed in the lower divisions until they won Division One in 2014–15.^[2] They won the Premier Division in 2016–17 and were promoted to the South West Peninsula League Division One East.^[3]

At the end of 2018–19 the league was restructured, and Honiton successfully applied for promotion to the Premier Division East, at Step 6 of the National League System.

In the 2022/23 season, Honiton had their highest league finish of 13th position in the South West Premier Easy Peninsula League, a season which also included significant ground upgrades with the additions of floodlights and a seated grandstand.

In 23/24, they entered the FA Vase for the first time, drawing Falmouth Town away.
