## Division One North

The Division One North featured four new clubs:
* Cammell Laird, transferred from the NPL Division One South
* Durham City, relegated from the NPL Premier Division
* Witton Albion, transferred from the NPL Division One South
* Chester were also admitted to Division One North, after appealing against an earlier decision to demote the club to the North West Counties League after their expulsion from the Conference Premier. Chester's participation was confirmed at the League's AGM on 19 June 2010. At the same meeting it was decided that the division would feature 23 clubs. There will, however, only be two relegation places in the league this year.
