Wellington (Somerset) F.C. are a football club based in Wellington, Somerset, England. They have played at Wellington Playing Fields in North Street since 1954.

Wellington joined the Western League in 1978, and have remained in Division One of that league ever since, except for a three season spell in the Premier Division from 1981-84. They escaped Division One again in 2008 after winning the title and gaining promotion to the Premier.

The club entered the FA Cup for four seasons in the early 1980s, twice winning a preliminary round tie, but never progressing past the first qualifying round. Their best FA Vase run dates to 1990-91, when they reached the third round (last 64).

Although officially named simply Wellington F.C., the county in which they play is ofren appended to their name to differentiate them from another Wellington F.C. based in Herefordshire. They are also sometimes listed as "Wellington Town".
