Hepton Rural District

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hepton was a rural district in the West Riding of Yorkshire from 1894 to 1974. The district included four parish councils, Heptonstall, Blackshaw, Erringdon and Wadsworth within its border.

It was created in 1894 as the Todmorden rural district. It was renamed in the 1930s and survived until 1974, when, under the Local Government Act 1972 it was abolished and became part of the Calderdale metropolitan borough in West Yorkshire.
