Fenny Stratford Urban District was from 1895 to 1911 the name of a local government authority in the administrative county of Buckinghamshire, England. In 1911 the urban district was renamed Bletchley Urban District.
From 1895 the urban district took over responsibility for three civil parishes which between 1894 and 1895 had been part of Newport Pagnell Rural District. Prior to 1894 these parishes had been administered by the Newport Pagnell Rural Sanitary District which was disbanded under the Local Government Act 1894.
In April 1974 Bletchley UD was abolished under the Local Government Act 1972 and the towns of Fenny Stratford and Bletchley became part of the district authority and borough of Milton Keynes.
