The North Devon Football League is a football competition based in England, established in 1904. The top division of this league, the Premier Division, has been a feeder to the Devon Football League since 2019, and previously, the South West Peninsula League. The North Devon Gazette sponsors the league and so the full, sponsored name of the league is the North Devon Gazette Football League.
The league covers a radius from Barnstaple.
