Ryan Austin was on target with Burton's third goal

Blue Square Premier leaders Burton are one win away from promotion to the Football League after beating Histon.

Aaron Webster's shot into the roof of the net set them on their way to the win with Darren Stride and Keith Gilroy also going close before half-time.
