It was enlarged in 1935 when the Huthwaite urban district and the civil parishes of Fulwood, Skegby and Teversal were transferred to the district.
The district was abolished in 1974 under the Local Government Act 1972 and combined with the Kirkby in Ashfield Urban District, most of Hucknall Urban District and part of Basford Rural District to form the new Ashfield district.
