History
They were established in 2007 following the demise of Louth United. They played in the Central Midlands League until they were promoted to the Northern Counties East League in 2010.
At the end of the 2012-2013 season, Louth Town finished in their highest position of 3rd in the Northern Counties East League. Manager Daryl Clare, in his first season with the club as manager, took the club to its highest ever league position.
The club resigned from the Northern Counties East Football League at the end of the 2014-15 season[2] and joined the Lincolnshire Football League, taking the place previously occupied by their reserve team.
