The creation of Herts/Middlesex at the beginning of the 1992–93 season meant that Middlesex 2 dropped to become a tier 10 league. The introduction of National 5 South for the 1993–94 season meant that Middlesex 3 dropped another level to become a tier 11 league for the years that National 5 South was active. Promotion continued to Middlesex 1 and relegation to Middlesex 3. The merging of the Hertfordshire and Middlesex regional divisions at the end of the 1995–96 season meant that Middlesex 2 was cancelled.
