History

Although the club can trace rather tenuous roots back to 1901, the modern club was founded shortly after World War II as Port Talbot Athletic. They were promoted into the League of Wales in 2000, and changed their name to Port Talbot Town in 2001. Port Talbot's biggest rivals are considered to be Afan Lido, located less than half a mile away, however the rivalry is not considered fierce.
