Club History
The club was established in 1904 as Amesbury Football Club. They joined the Salisbury & District Junior League, before becoming members of the Salisbury & District League in 1906. After winning the league in 1955–56, they became members of Division One of the Wiltshire League. However, after finishing third in Division One in 1958–59, the club left the division. They returned to Division One in 1972–73; despite finishing bottom of the table, they were not relegated. The following season saw them finish second-from-bottom of the division, but in 1974–75 they were league champions. They were runners-up the following season, and were placed in Senior Division One in 1976 in what is now the Wiltshire Senior League after the league merged with the Wiltshire Combination to form the Wiltshire County League.

Amesbury were extremely successful in the early years of the Wiltshire County League, never finishing outside of the top five in any of the first eight seasons of a division that always had a minimum of at least 16 teams. Season 1979-80 was a highlight in that period with Amesbury lifting the league title for the first time after finishing three points clear of nearest rivals, Swindon based side Sanford.

Amesbury began entering the FA Vase in 1978–79, and were Division One runners-up. The following season saw them win the league and reach the third round of the Vase. In 1983–84 they won the Wiltshire Senior Cup for the first time. The club were renamed Amesbury Town in 1984

After a couple of seasons at the wrong end of the table, Amesbury were to have another succesful run between Seasons 1987-88 and 1993-94, the seven seasons seeing them finish in the top four each and every season and lifting the league title on another two occasions, in Season 1990-91 and defending their title the following season in 1991-92. During this run of successful seasons they also won the Wiltshire County League Senior Cup (what is now the Fountain Trophies Cup) in three successive seasonsbetween 1988-89 and 1990-91.

After finishing as runners-up in 1993–94, also winning the Wiltshire Senior Cup that season, the club moved up to Division One of the Western League. However, after finishing bottom of Division One in 1996–97 they left to rejoin the Salisbury & District League.

After finishing as runners-up in the Salisbury & District League Premier Division in 1997–98, Amesbury joined Division Three of the Hampshire League. A fourth-place finish in their first season in the league was enough to earn promotion to the Premier Division amidst league reorganisation, and they went on to win the Premier Division at the first attempt.

In 2004 the league merged into the Wessex League, with the club becoming members of Division Two, which was renamed Division One in 2006. In 2015–16 they were Division One runners-up, and were promoted to the Premier Division. After finishing third-from-bottom of the Premier Division in 2017–18, the club were relegated back to Division One. They were Division One runners-up the following season, making an immediate return to the Premier Division. However, they finished bottom of the Premier Division in 2021–22 and were relegated to Division One. Following a second-from-bottom finish in Division One the season after, they were relegated to the Premier Division of the Wiltshire League.
