The rural district was abolished in 1895 when all the parishes were included in urban districts:

Coombe and Malden were combined with New Malden Urban District to become The Maldens and Coombe Urban District

Esher, Thames Ditton and most of Long Ditton became Esher and the Dittons Urban District

Hook and the Tolworth area of Long Ditton were added to Surbiton Urban District
