History

The club was formed in 1959 and originally played in the Hexham & District League as Ovington F.C.. They moved upwards through the Newcastle & District League, the Northern Combination, and the Northern Amateur League before joining the Northern Alliance in 1984 as Prudhoe East End.

Twice Northern Alliance runners-up, they joined the Northern League in 1988, spending all but two seasons of their period in the league in Division Two. Promotion was earned in the 1993–94 and 2001–02 seasons, but on each occasion they were relegated after a solitary season in Division One. They adopted their present name in 1994. They stayed in the Northern League, until 2009 when they resigned and joined the Wearside Football League, where they have remained since.

Ground

Prudhoe Town played their home games at Kimberly Park, Broomhouse Road, Prudhoe, NE42 5EH. The club's future was put in doubt after the loss of this ground officially.
