Template:Otheruses Template:Short description Template:Use dmy dates Template:Use Australian English Durham was an electoral district for the Legislative Assembly in the Australian state of New South Wales, named after Durham County, which lies on the north side of the Hunter River. From 1856 to 1859, it elected three members simultaneously by voters casting three votes with the three leading candidates being elected. It was abolished in 1859 with the county being split between the districts of Hunter, Lower Hunter, Upper Hunter, Morpeth, Paterson, Patrick's Plains and Williams.[1]

It was recreated in 1880, replacing parts of Paterson and Williams, as a single-member electorate. It was abolished in 1920.[2][3][4]
