Spilsby Rural District
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Spilsby was a rural district in Lincolnshire, parts of Lindsey from 1894 to 1974.
It was created by the Local Government Act 1894 from the Spilsby rural sanitary district. It was reduced in 1925 when the civil parish Sutton in the Marsh became part of Mablethorpe and Sutton urban district, and then expanded in 1936 when, under a County Review Order, the former Sibsey Rural District became part of the district.
It survived until 1974 when, under the Local Government Act 1972, it was merged with other districts to form the new East Lindsey district.
