Flackwell Heath
Our time in cahoots with Flackwell Heath is pretty limited to say the least; our paths not crossing since the late 1980s. After losing our first game with the Heathens in a 1984-5 league campaign in which both meetings came at the back end of term, we’ve now won three on the spin. Two of those, however, were FA Vase Round One ties; the first in ’85 and the second in ’89. In 2007, they quit the Isthmian League for the Hellenic League.

Club History
Flackwell Heath: Us And Them
From near the town of High Wycombe they come, do the Heathens. And with them comes more than 100 years of history wedged under their belt. For the best part of 70 years, the club shared their time between the High Wycombe and District League and the Great Western Combination. In 1976, however, came a change of scene: the Hellenic League. Promotion from Division One was earned at the first go. Five years were then spent in the Premier Division, followed by two in the Athenian League. After that folded, it was into the Isthmian League.
The 1984-5 season saw Flackwell Heath compete in the Isthmian (or Servowarm) League Division Two North for the first time. It just so happens that a certain Stevenage Borough were also making their debut in that same competition too! Oh, what japes! The first meeting, however, didn’t take place until March 1985, with both the home and away legs making up two of our last nine games of term. The first was at their gaff, and a less-than-successful experience; Martin Sperrin scoring the consolation in our 3-1 defeat at Wilks Park.
How to get to Flackwell Heath
By Car
By Road
Go around the M25 and take the M40 towards Birmingham. After eight miles, come off the motorway at Junction 3. This will be for the A40 to High Wycombe. Take the first exit at the roundabout and continue onto the A4094; crossing the M40 in the process.
At the next roundabout, take the second exit for Boundary Road and go back across the M40 again; turning left onto Treadaway Hill next. Guess what? You’re going back across the motorway when you do so.
As you reach Flackwell Heath, take the third exit at the roundabout for Heath End Road. The ground is up here on the right.

Yep – High Wycombe is the nearest station for this trip. But you’re not going to want to walk it. If you’re determined to take the train, a taxi is pretty much the best solution.
