Kyneton was an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly in the Australian state of Victoria centred on Kyneton from 1889 to 1904.[1]

Charles Young was the last member for Kyneton Boroughs, representing the district from 1874 until its abolition in 1889.[1] Kyneton was abolished in the 1904 redistribution when several new districts were created or re-created including the Electoral district of Dalhousie.
