Harrison Delbridge Ok they also have one of the worst football logos I've ever seen
Looks like it was hastily made on paint

Harrison Delbridge I always get confused between all the Eastbourne and Biggleswades (between their respective selves)
Also the Westfields but they aren't all in the same place which is even worse
There's just so many

Summary 4 U
3 x Eastbournes
Borough STEP02 National League South - Founded 1964 (as Langney Sports) play in Priory Lane Langney
Town STEP04 Isthmian One - South East - Founded 1881 (as Devonshire Park) play at 'The Saffrons'
United Association FC STEP05 Southern Combination Premier - Formed 2003 as a merger between two clubs 'United' and Shinewater. Play at The Oval.
3 x Biggleswades
Biggleswade Town - trad. the 'main' one for the town - Founded 1874 - used to have a ground right next door to Biggleswade Utd but in 2008 moved to a new ground (Carlsberg Stadium) on open land to the south of the Town, visible off the A1(M).
'The Waders' have reached STEP03 on a couple of occasions - have just been promoted back up to Southern League Premier Central above their younger 'offspring' but are currently bottom. No real Cup/Vase successes - managed the first round proper of the Cup once in 2013-14.
Biggleswade United - the lesser outfit - Founded 1959 - been rather left behind by the other two, to scrabble around in the South Mids Leagues. Dropped back into County Level (Herts) for a decade or more late 80s. Still play in a fairly basic enclosed ground (Second Meadow) on the western side of the town. Currently STEP05 - Spartan South Mids Premier. Pretty unremarkable history in the Cup/Vase.
NOTE Famous chairman - Spanish Pundit :Guillem Balagué
Biggleswade - the newbies - Formed only as recently as 2016, from what was previously Biggleswade Town's under 18 team - have risen very quickly up the leagues. Currently STEP04 Southern League First - Central. They lost a PO Final to reach STEP03 two seasons ago - and got to an FA Vase QF in only their 3rd season.
Rather perversely they have 'flown the coop' and now groundshare over at Bedford Town's stadium - The Eyrie .
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Westfield (Surrey) - Founded 1953 - based in a suburb of Woking in a much refurbed ground within Woking Park and set right opposite the main entrance to Kingfield (Woking FC) - traditionally a Combined Counties side - recently promoted up to STEP04 Isthmian League One - South Central
Westfield (Sussex) nr Hastings Founded 1911 - never got about Division 2 [STEP06] of the Sussex County League (now the Southern Combination League) and eventually relegated on ground grading rules in 2019, into the Mid-Sussex League Premier [STEP07].
Westfields (Hereford) Founded 1966 - spent most of their subsequent time in the Midlands leagues - joined the Hellenic in 2019 and made quite an impact. They were unbeaten in the their first 26 games before COVID curtailed the season. Currently mid-table in the Hellenic Premier STEP05.
Had reached the First Round proper of the FA Cup in 16-17 beating some higher level clubs on the way (e.g. Leiston) until losing a replay vs Curzon Ashton.
Based in Hereford - which, until this season, boasted 4 non-league sides in the pyramid (Westfields, the former 'United' now just plain Hereford, Pegasus and Lads Club - the latter resigned from Hellenic Premier pre-season 24-25)
...and the only other one I've heard/read of:
Westfield (Somerset) - never risen above Grassroots County Level leagues - currently STEP08 Somerset County League Div One - based in a suburb of Midsomer Norton, south of Bath
- quite a common name so there probably dozens of other little Westfields up and down the country.

Sutekh Aren’t there a couple of South Parks too, plus, at one point, several Ashford Towns - although think there is only the one Ashford Town left now?
