Tarvin was, from 1894 to 1974, a rural district in the administrative county of Cheshire, England. The district was named after the village of Tarvin, and saw considerable boundary changes throughout its life.[1]
Creation
The district was created by the Local Government Act 1894 as the successor to Tarvin Rural Sanitary District. It initially consisted of the following civil parishes:[2]
1936 boundary changes
In 1936 the boundaries of the rural district were substantially altered under a county review order. It lost large parts to Chester Rural District, but also absorbed most of the disbanded Malpas Rural District.
- 10,746 acres (43.49 km2) (Aldford, Barrow, Buerton, Churton by Aldford, Churton Heath, Guilden Sutton, Huntington, Lea Newbold, Rowton, and Saighton) passed to Chester RD
- 233 acres (0.94 km2) to Nantwich Rural District
- 11 acres (0.045 km2) to Hoole Urban District
- 16,712 acres (67.63 km2) were received from Malpas RD.[1] [2]
The following parishes were added to the district:

Abolition
The Local Government Act 1972 completely reorganised council boundaries throughout England and Wales. On 1 April 1974 Tarvin Rural District was merged with the city and county borough of Chester and the Chester Rural District to form the new non-metropolitan district of Chester.[2]
