The original Hertfordshire 1 was a tier 8 league with promotion up to London 3 North West and relegation down to Hertfordshire 2 until that league was cancelled at the end of the 1989–90 season.

Hertfordshire 1 (1992–1996)
The creation of Herts/Middlesex at the beginning of the 1992–93 season meant that Hertfordshire 1 dropped to become a tier 9 league. The introduction of National 5 South for the 1993–94 season meant that Hertfordshire 1 dropped another level to become a tier 10 league for the years that National 5 South was active. Promotion was into the new Herts/Middlesex league and. as this was the lowest tier league for Hertfordshire based clubs, there was no relegation. The merging of the Hertfordshire and Middlesex regional divisions at the end of the 1996–97 mean that Hertfordshire 1 was cancelled.
