Born in Sheffield, Stewart played for Sheffield Wednesday and Colchester United in the Football League from 1946 until 1957, and with non-league clubs Hastings United and Clacton Town.[1]

A member of the first ever Colchester United side to play in a Football League game, Reg was an uncompromising central defender who came south from Sheffield Wednesday.
