Ceiriog was a rural district in the administrative county of Denbighshire from 1935 to 1974.

The rural district was formed by a County Review Order in 1935 from the merger of Chirk and Llansillin Rural districts. The district was named after the Ceiriog Valley.

The district contained nine civil parishes:

  • Chirk
  • Glyntraian
  • Llanarmon Dyffryn Ceiriog
  • Llanarmon Mynydd Mawr
  • Llangadwaladr
  • Llangedwyn
  • Llanrhaeadr ym Mochnant
  • Llansantffraid Glynceiriog
  • Llansilin
  • The rural district was abolished in 1974 by the Local Government Act 1972, with its area becoming part of the district of Glyndŵr, one of six districts of Clwyd.
