Glossop North End A.F.C.
Glossop North End Association Football Club is a football club in Glossop, Derbyshire, England, which competes in the North West Counties League Premier Division. The club was founded in February 1886. Between 1899 and 1992 the club was officially known as Glossop. Their current home ground, since 1955, is at Surrey Street in Glossop; the club's colours are blue and they are nicknamed the Hillmen (previously also as the Peakites).
Four years after their formation the club joined the North Cheshire League for three seasons and were champions in 1893–94. They then played two seasons each in The Combination and the Midland League.
Between 1898 and 1915 the club were members of the Football League. The club played in the First Division for one season, 1899–1900, making the town of Glossop the smallest whose team has played in the English top-flight. During this period the club chairman and benefactor was Sir Samuel Hill-Wood who was later to become chairman of Arsenal.
In the 1914-1915 season Glossop finished bottom of Division Two and were not re-elected to the Football League. Following the resumption of football after World War I in 1920 and through to 2015 Glossop played at various times in several north-west England based, non-League competitions: the Lancashire Combination, the Manchester League (in which they were 1927–28 champions), the Cheshire County League, and the latter's successor the North West Counties League (in which they were 2014–15 champions). Following promotion in 2015 the club played in the north of England based Northern Premier League until relegation in 2023 when they dropped back to the North West Counties League.
Glossop North End were beaten finalists in the FA Vase in both 2009 and 2015.
