Buckingham was a rural district in the administrative county of Buckinghamshire, England from 1894 to 1974. The rural district took over the responsibilities of the disbanded Buckingham Rural Sanitary District and also incorporated parishes from Brackley RSD which was mainly based in Northamptonshire but oversaw parishes in Buckinghamshire. Buckingham RD was named after but did not include the borough of Buckingham. Under the Local Government Act 1972 it was merged into the Aylesbury Vale district.
