Winterton have used just two grounds in their history. They were situated at Watery Lane until 1950 when a piece of land was purchased at West Street. In 1965 they joined the Lincolnshire County League until 1970 when they accepted an invitation to the Yorkshire Football League. Over the next decade they won the Yorkshire Football League on three occasions.

In 1982–83 they became founder members of the Northern Counties East League (NCEL), when the Yorkshire League and Midland League amalgamated. Just 2 seasons later the club disbanded due to financial difficulties. In 1986 Rangers then re-entered the NCEL Division 2 winning he title in 1989–90 and were promoted directly to the Premier Division. After 4 seasons they were relegated to the NCEL Division 1.
