London 3 North East was an English rugby union league that was the eighth level of club rugby union in England and was available to sides from north east London, Essex, Cambridgeshire, Norfolk and Suffolk. Promoted clubs move into London 2 North East. Relegated teams tended to drop to Eastern Counties 1 or Essex Canterbury Jack 1 depending on geographical location, with new teams also coming from these leagues.
The league was discontinued at the end of the 2016–17 season as the RFU decided to instead create two new leagues - London 3 Eastern Counties and London 3 Essex - to reduce travelling times for teams involved. The teams from London 3 North East were transferred to either London 3 Eastern Counties or London 3 Essex depending on geography, along with additional teams being promoted from regional leagues if needed.

Notes
- ^ Due to the RFU reorganizing splitting teams from London 3 North East into London 3 Eastern Counties and London 3 Essex for the 2017-18 season, no teams were relegated, although 11th place Ilford Wanderers would decide to join Essex Canterbury Jack 1.
