Status	Rural district

Mutford and Lothingland Rural District was a rural district within the administrative county of East Suffolk between 1894 and 1934. It was created out of the earlier Mutford and Lothingland rural sanitary district.[1]

In 1904 a new Oulton Broad Urban District was created out of parts of Carlton Colville[2] and Oulton[3] parishes. Oulton Broad UD was absorbed by the Municipal Borough of Lowestoft in 1919.

In 1934, under a County Review Order, Mutford and Lothingland Rural District was abolished and its parishes transferred to the new Lothingland Rural District, apart from Gunton and some part parishes which were added to Lowestoft MB. In 1974 the area was divided between the new districts of Great Yarmouth (in Norfolk) and Waveney in Suffolk.
