The Football Association have revealed the 2023-24 National League System club allocations subject to FA Council ratification and any appeals.
Over the weekend, Notts County returned to the Football League, while Kidderminster Harriers won their National League North promotion final against Brackley Town to return to Step 1.
From the National League South, Oxford City have been promoted to the National League for the first time after beating St Albans in their final.
Isthmian Premier title winners Bishop’s Stortford have been placed in National League North. The Blues spent two seasons in the division between 2011 and 2013 before switching back to the South division, and being relegated to Step 3 in 2017.
At Step 3, Harrow Borough have been reprieved in Southern Premier South after Met Police took voluntary relegation to Step 4, where they’ve been placed in Isthmian Division One South Central.
Harlow Town return to first team football in the Eastern Counties Division One South having withdrawn from Step 4 partway through last season.
An FA statement said: “We can now confirm the National League System (NLS) club allocations for Steps 1-6, subject to FA Council ratification.
“The allocations follow the completion of the recent Inter-Step and league play-offs at Steps 1 to 6 of the NLS.
“These allocations are subject to both FA Council ratification and any subsequent appeals and any amendments to these will be confirmed in due course.
“We would like to thank all of the clubs across the National League System for their hard work during the 2022-23 season and wish everyone the best of luck for next season.”
