Notes
- Trinity were until the 2018-19 season known as Old Mid-Whitgiftian.
- No relegation due to league restructuring for the following season as Surrey 4 abolished and extra teams added to Surrey 1 (and other divisions) as a result.
- Streatham-Croydon, Old Cranleighans, Old Rutlishians, Old Haileyburians, Old Freemens and Old Whitgiftian were the relegated teams this season. The reason for the many relegations was the reinstatement of Surrey 4 for the 2005-06 season, meaning that teams dropped into Surrey 2 to replace teams that had in turn dropped to Surrey 3 and in turn to the new Surrey 4.
- Bognor were promoted as Old Freemens did not manage to raise a team for the 2015-16 play-off game.
