duties at the club after a home defeat by Chippenham Park, at that time a relegation rival. Westbury's reserve manager, Marc Lanfear, stepped in to lead the first team whilst a new manager was sought. He was assisted for those two matches by Nathan Hallett-Young; they won both of their games against two of the top three teams in the division. Father and son, Neil and Joe Kirkpatrick, were appointment joint managers on 1 February 2017. They suffered defeat in their first three league games in charge, but after that they oversaw a five league game winning streak, the first time Westbury United achieved this since 2009. Westbury started the 2017–18 season with three teams: the first team competing in the Toolstation Western League Division One, the Reserves competing in the Wiltshire Senior League and the Development Team in the Trowbridge and District League. The Kirkpatricks had attracted a strong group of players and Westbury started the season amongst the favorites to be promoted.

Chairman Matt Bright stepped down in early October to spend more time with his family, and Secretary Greg Coulson was elected to become Chairman at a Special General Meeting in early November. The club won the First Division and secured promotion to the Premier Division. They scored more points (95, previous best 91) and more goals (97, previous best 95), and conceded the fewest goals (29, previous best 39) in the club's history. The 2018–19 season saw Westbury stay unbeaten until Boxing Day (17 games, 14 wins and 3 draws) before losing to local rivals Bradford Town FC 1-0 at home. They continued their good form and ended up finishing in their joint highest league position ever, 5th place with 74 points. In their first venture into the FA Cup since 2010 they reached the first qualifying round, beating Cribbs and Saltash before being knocked-out by Bitton. In the FA Vase they got to the first round proper, where Saltash took their revenge and earned a 2-1 win on a very windy day. They also got to the semi-final of the Wiltshire FA Senior Cup, before losing 4-1 (aet) to Swindon Supermarine FA. The highlight of the 2019–20 season was their match against Swindon Town FC – the county's only professional team – in the quarter-final of the
