King's Norton and Northfield Urban District was a local government administrative district in north Worcestershire, England, from 1898 until 1911.[5] Much of its area was afterwards absorbed into the neighbouring Borough of Birmingham, under the Greater Birmingham Scheme, and now constitutes most of the city's southern and southwestern suburban environs.[6]
- ^ The County Borough of Birmingham took over the governance of that part of the civil parish of King's Norton comprising the wards of King's Norton, Moseley (Moor Green), Moseley (Wake Green), King's Heath (East), King's Heath (West), Stirchley (North), Stirchley (South), and most of the Rednal and Rubery ward; as well as nearly all of the civil parish of Northfield, comprising the wards of Northfield, Selly Oak (East), Selly Oak (West), and the greater part of the Bartley Green ward.
- ^ Bromsgrove Rural District assumed responsibility for the new civil parish of Wythall, comprising the former Wythall ward of King's Norton Parish, as well as the civil parish and ward of Beoley. As the civil parish of Cofton Hackett was already within this district, it also succeeded in that part of Rednal transferred to that parish from the Rednal and Rubery ward of the King's Norton parish.
- ^ Halesowen Rural District succeeded only in that area of the Bartley Green ward of Northfield parish that had been transferred to Illey civil parish, which was already part of the district.
