HistoryThe club was established in 1949 as Lawrence Weston Athletic, playing their early years in the Bristol and District League and then the Bristol Premier Combination. In 1979, they moved to Hallen, changing their name to Lawrence Weston Hallen. The facilities available at their new base enabled them to move up to the Gloucestershire County League in 1987. Three years later, they changed their name again, to simply Hallen. In 1992 they gained a further promotion, joining the Hellenic League Division One, and after further improvements to the facilities (particularly the erection of floodlights and a all seater stand), a runner-up position in 1996–97 led to another step up, to the Hellenic League Premier Division. After three seasons in the Hellenic League Premier, they were granted permission to switch to the Western League, but had to take an effective demotion to that league's Division One. They were champions of that division in 2003–04, meaning they took their place in the Western League Premier Division, where they remain to this day.
