The East Northumberland League was a football league that existed in Northumberland from 1894-1910.
Overview
The ENL was made up from teams chiefly from the mining areas of Northumberland. However, they had chronic instability, with no team playing in the league for the full period of the league's existence, and more than half lasting for only a single year or less. At least two champions of this league, Ashington and Blyth Spartans, are still in existence however. Both of these teams went on to join the Northern Football Alliance shortly after their successes in the ENL.
