Saltash United Football Club is a football club based in Saltash, Cornwall, in the United Kingdom. They were founding members of the South Western League in 1951 and won the title two times in their history. They remained in the South Western League until 1976, when they joined the Western Football League, achieving promotion from Division One to the Premier Division in their first season, before rejoining the South Western League in 1995. They spent the 2004-05 and 2005-06 seasons in the Western League Division One but resigned and returned to the South Western League in 2006. When the South Western League merged with the Devon County League to form the new South West Peninsula League, Saltash became members of the Premier Division of the new competition.
