Parliamentary constituency in the United Kingdom, 1801–1832
Nairnshire was a
county constituency of the
House of Commons of Great Britain from 1708 until 1800, and of the
House of Commons of the United Kingdom from 1801 to 1832.
Creation
The British parliamentary constituency of
Nairnshire was created in 1708 following the
Acts of Union 1707 and replaced the former
Parliament of Scotland shire constituency of
Nairnshire . Nairnshire was paired as an
alternating constituency with neighbouring
Cromartyshire. The
freeholders of Nairnshire elected one
Member of Parliament (MP) to one Parliament, while those of Cromartyshire elected a Member to the next.
Boundaries
The constituency covered the entire Scottish county of
Nairnshire.
History
Prior to the
Scottish Reform Act 1832 (
2 & 3 Will. 4. c. 65), the constituency was generally controlled by the
Dukes of Argyll or Campbells, the number of voters varying between 15 and 30.

The
Representation of the People (Scotland) Act 1832 abolished the alternating constituencies. Nairnshire was merged with
Elginshire to form the single constituency of
Elginshire and Nairnshire, both counties electing one Member between them to each Parliament.
