2004–05 Isthmian League#Division One

The 2004–05 season was the 90th in the history of the Isthmian League, which is an English football competition featuring semi-professional and amateur clubs from London, East and South East England.

Also, it was the first season after the creation of the Conference North and South, one step above the Isthmian League. Therefore, it was the inaugural season for the league in the seventh, eighth and ninth tiers of the English league system.

The Premier Division featured seven clubs from the previous season and 15 new clubs:

Yeading won the division and were promoted to the Conference South along with play-off winners Eastleigh. Tonbridge Angels, Dover Athletic and Kingstonian finished bottom of the table and were relegated to Division One, while 19th-placed Cheshunt were reprieved as the club with a better record than the equivalent Northern Premier League and Southern League clubs after Conference South side Hornchurch folded.

After the creation of the Conference North and South one step above the Isthmian League, most of the Premier Division clubs were transferred to the newly created divisions. Consequently, the best Division One clubs took up the empty spots in higher divisions. Remaining Division One North clubs were transferred to the Southern Football League. Two Isthmian League Division One sections were merged into single Division One.

Division One consisted of 13 clubs transferred from Division One South and nine new clubs:

AFC Wimbledon won the division to earn a second promotion in a row along with runners-up Walton & Hersham and play-off winners Bromley. Dorking returned to Division Two along with Croydon.
