[2][3] The club was formed in 1875 and played their early games on what is now a supermarket car park before moving to their present ground at Drove Road in 1880.

The Great Depression saw people from Wales arriving in the town, played rugby for Weston and became one of the top clubs in the country at that time.

Recently they have had a resurgence in player attendance, overall improvement in facilities and a thriving social scene which has equated to success on the field.

The ground capacity has been historically listed as 6,000 and early games have been reported of 4,000 spectators attending, but a figure of 3,000 is more realistic with modern crowd safety measures in mind.
