Club Calzada was a Spanish football club based in Gijón, in the autonomous community of Asturias. Founded in 1924 and dissolved in 1969, the club held their home matches at the Campo de Fútbol El Frontón.

History

Founded in 1924, the club ceased activities in 1936 due to the Spanish Civil War, only returning in 1947. In 1951, they first achieved promotion to Tercera División, and remained in the category for 14 consecutive years.

After one season in Primera Regional, Calzada returned to Tercera in 1965, but suffered another relegation three years later. On 10 July 1969, they merged with Pelayo CF to create UD Gijón Industrial.[1] [2]
