Wing Rural District was a rural district in the administrative county of Buckinghamshire, England. It was created in 1894 with the name Linslade Rural District, but was renamed Wing Rural District in 1897 when Linslade itself was removed from the district to become an urban district. Wing Rural District was abolished in 1974 to become part of Aylesbury Vale District.
