Formed for the 2006-07 season, the division was originally known as Midlands 5 East (North) but changed to its present name for the 2008-09 season due to league restructuring. Promoted teams tend to move up to Midlands 3 East (North). Up until the 2017-18 relegated teams dropped down to Midlands 5 East (North) but since that division has been abolished there is currently no relegation.
