Phrase popularized by the 2nd series finale of the BBC programme Sherlock--put simply, not one's responsibility, strong suit, or "area." Can also be used in terms of personal preferences--e.g. "blue jeans really aren't my division," or in reverse to show an interest in something--e.g. "Tom Baxter's face is my division."

Term used mostly in Manchester or Northern England for a sibling. Could also be a best friend. Noel and Liam Gallagher are notorious for using the term for each other. There’s no negative connotation to it.
