The districts formed between 1848 and 1858 under the Public Health Act 1848 (11 & 12 Vict. c. 63) were known as local board districts (LBD). Where the territory for a district was not a pre-existing administrative area, such districts were confirmed by local acts of parliament. Districts which were already municipal boroughs where the existing town council was constituted as the local board (e.g. Grimsby) are omitted from this list.
