From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Skirlaugh was a rural district in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England from 1894 to 1935.[1]

The district formed an area around the Hornsea urban district.

The district was created by the Local Government Act 1894.[1]

In 1935 the district was abolished by a County Review Order made under the Local Government Act 1929.[1] and the area then formed part of the newly created Holderness Rural District.[1] At the same time a small part was transferred to the municipal borough of Kingston upon Hull.[1]
