Electoral district of Gloucester
Gloucester was an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly in the Australian state of New South Wales, originally created in 1880, partly replacing Williams, and named after Gloucester (which it included) or Gloucester County (which it overlapped). In 1920, with the introduction of proportional representation, it was absorbed into Oxley, along with Raleigh. It was recreated in 1927 and abolished in 1988 and replaced by Myall Lakes and Port Stephens.
