Clowne Rural District

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Clowne was a rural district in Derbyshire, England from 1894 to 1974.

It was created by the Local Government Act 1894 as that part of the Worksop rural sanitary district which was in Derbyshire (the rest becoming either Worksop Rural District of Kiveton Park Rural District). It consisted of four civil parishes :

  • Barlborough
  • Clowne
  • Elmton
  • Whitwell

It was abolished in 1974 under the Local Government Act 1972, going on to form part of the new district of Bolsover.
