North-West North 2 was an English Rugby Union league which was at the eleventh tier of the domestic competition and was available to teams in Cumbria and the northern part of Lancashire. Promoted teams moved up to North-West North 1 and as the division was the lowest level for clubs in the region there was no relegation. The division ran for three seasons from 1987 to 1990 until it was cancelled due to a falling number of teams. All remaining clubs in the division were promoted/transferred into North-West North 1 for the start of the 1990–91 campaign.

When league rugby began in 1987 this division contained the following teams:
