The Leyland Hundred (also known as Leylandshire) was a hundred of the English county of Lancashire. It covered the parishes of Brindle, Chorley, Croston, Eccleston, Hoole, Leyland, Penwortham, Rufford, Standish and Tarleton.
In the Domesday Book it was recorded as 'Lailand' hundred which was included in the returns for Cheshire. However, it cannot be said clearly to have been part of Cheshire.
