Blyth Valley, formerly known as Blyth, was a constituency[n 1] most recently represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament from 2019 by Ian Levy, a Conservative [n 2] until its abolition in 2024.
Under the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, the seat was abolished, with the majority of its contents - excluding the town of Blyth itself - being absorbed into the new constituency of Cramlington and Killingworth, to be first contested at the 2024 general election. Blyth was included in the new constituency of Blyth and Ashington.[3]
