The Hundred of Blyth is a cadastral unit of hundred on the northern Adelaide Plains of South Australia centred on the township of Blyth.[1] It is one of the 16 hundreds of the County of Stanley.[2] It was named in 1860 by Governor Richard MacDonnell after Arthur Blyth who arrived in South Australia as a teenager in 1839 and went on to become a local businessman, parliamentarian and thrice the premier of South Australia.[1]
Apart from the town of Blyth the locality of Kybunga is also in the hundred, and the historic settlement of Bowillia is on the eastern boundary of the hundred.
