The champions were promoted to South West Premier (formerly National League 3 South West) and the runner-up played the second team in South West 1 West, with the winning team gaining promotion. Relegated sides were usually relegated to one of the two seventh-tier leagues (depending on location) – Southern Counties North or Southern Counties South.

Original teams
When league rugby began in 1987 this division (known as South West 2) contained the following teams:
South West 1 East honours
South West 2 (1987–1993)
Originally South West 1 East and South West 1 West were combined in a single division called South West 2. It was a tier 6 league with promotion up to South West 1 and relegation down to either Western Counties[a] or Southern Counties[b].
| Season | No of teams | No of matches | Champions | Runners-up | Relegated teams | Ref |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1987–88 | 11 | 10 | Berry Hill | Reading | Newbury, Devonport Services | [8] |

| 1992–93 | 13 | 12 | Stroud | Barnstaple | Old Culverhaysians | [12] |
South West 2 (1993–1996)
The top six teams from South West 1 and the top six from London 1 were combined to create National 5 South, meaning that South West 2 dropped to become a tier 7 league. Promotion continued to South West 1 and relegation to either Western Counties[d] or Southern Counties[e].

| 1995–96 | 13 | 12 | Launceston | Stroud | No relegation[f] | [15] |
South West 2 East (1996–2009)
League restructuring by the RFU for the 1996–97 season saw South West 2 split into two regional divisions known as South West 2 East and South West 2 West, and the cancellation of National 5 South meant that both divisions became tier 6 leagues. Promotion continued to South West 1, while relegation was now to either Southern Counties North or Southern Counties South[g].
