The club, founded in 1901, hails from Belfast and plays its home matches at Skegoneill Avenue.
Formed in 1901 and named after Brantwood Street, the club first played at the Glen, Alexandra Park Avenue.
From 1920 until 1930 they played at Dunmore Park, during which time they won the Intermediate League twice (1920–21 and 1924–25) and Steel & Sons Cup once.
After 1930, Brantwood were unable to secure an extension to the lease at Dunmore Park and became homeless.
For the next 22 years they played at various venues, including Ligoniel, Whiteabbey, Donaldson Crescent, Oldpark Avenue, Greencastle, York Park and another four-year spell at Dunmore.
