Witton Albion F.C. are a football club based in Northwich, England. They were founded in 1887. They have won the Cheshire Senior Cup 11 times since 1902. Their most recent success in this competition was in 2006, when they defeated Stalybridge Celtic in the final. They have also reached the FA Cup Second Round on at least three occasions. The club will play in the Northern Premier League Premier Division (eighth tier of the English football league system) in the 2015–16 season.
The club's ground was for many years in the centre of the town, just behind the library. In 1989, they moved a couple of miles to Chapel Street in nearby Wincham. Sainsbury's Supermarket now occupies the old Central Ground site.
Witton's current home, Wincham Park, holds in excess of 4,500 and is equipped with floodlights, segregation, a club shop and a museum.
There used to be a fierce local rivalry with Northwich Victoria.
