Basingstoke Rural District is a former council district that comprised the areas of Basingstoke and the larger parishes that surrounded the large town. It now lies within the present-day Basingstoke and Deane district in Hampshire, England. The district was merged along with the Kingsclere and Whitchurch Rural District on 18 June 1973 and was originally known as the Borough of Basingstoke and Deane. On 1 April 1974, all councils were fully dissolved and merged with Basingstoke and Deane.[2]
