Framlingham Town Football Club is an English football club based in Framlingham, Suffolk. The club are currently members of Division One of the Eastern Counties League and play at Badingham Road. The club is affiliated to the Suffolk County FA.

History

The club was established in 1887 and started playing in the Ipswich & District League (now the Suffolk & Ipswich League). They dropped into the Framlingham League, before playing in the Leiston League and the Woodbridge League and returning to the Ipswich & District League.

The club won Division Two of the Suffolk & Ipswich League in 1980–81, and the League Cup in 1989–90. In 1991–92 they won the Senior Division and the League Cup, but could not be promoted to Division One of the Eastern Counties League as their ground did not meet the required standards.[1] In 1995–96 they reached the final of the Suffolk Senior Cup, losing 3–0 to Grundisburgh. In 2010–11 they entered the FA Vase for the first time.

At the end of the 2011–12 season the club were relegated from the Senior Division to Division One. In 2014–15 the club finished second in Division One, earning promotion back to the Senior Division. After finishing fifth in the Senior Division in 2015–16, the club were promoted to Division One of the Eastern Counties League.

Stadium

The club initially played at Dickson's Meadow, before moving to Brunnings Meadow, both of which are now part of Framlingham College. They later moved to the Red House Farm and then Hayning's Field in 1932. In 1951 they moved to their current ground on Badingham Road, Framlingham.
