Ground Inspection Report

History:

Early records of Heswall F.C. are a little obscure but it is documented that their first game was played in 1891, Heswall losing 13-1.   Things could only get better.
Heswall joined the West Cheshire league just before the 1st World War, playing at Puddey Dale, but it wasn’t until the 1930’s that Heswall started to make their mark.
In what proved to be a purple patch for the club, Heswall took three consecutive Division 1 Championships, as well as two Pyke cups, five Wirral Amateur cups, the Wirral Senior cup and the coveted Cheshire Amateur cup.

In 1971, after a brief spell playing at Irby, Heswall moved to their present ground, 'Gayton Park'. Where they have had continued success on and off the pitch, building a fine clubhouse and gathering trophies such as Division One Championship, Cheshire Amateur Cup, Pyke Cup, Wirral Amateur Cup, Division Two Championship, and the West Cheshire Bowl.

This has also been supplemented by appearances in the F.A. Vase, a competition getting more and more popular with some of the more established West Cheshire clubs, giving them a chance to play against strong opposition from farther a field.

In season 2004/05, Heswall once again took the sought after Division One Title, after a close fought race with eventual runners-up Christleton.
