Shortly before the start of the season Andover resigned from the league and folded. No replacement club was admitted and the season was played with 21 clubs.^[2] Therefore, relegation zone was reduced to one place in order to make up the numbers for the 2012-13 season. Division One South & West consisted of 21, including 17 teams from the previous season, three clubs relegated from Premier Division and one new club:

• Didcot Town, relegated from the Premier Division
• Halesowen Town, relegated from the Premier Division
• Poole Town, promoted as champions of the Wessex League
• Tiverton Town, relegated from the Premier Division

Bideford won the division and were promoted to the Southern League Premier Division along with play-off winners Gosport Borough. Stourport Swifts finished bottom of the table and were relegated.
