Kingswood Borough
Kingswood was, from 1974 to 1996, a non-metropolitan district of the County of Avon, England. The district was formed by the Local Government Act 1972 on 1 April 1974 as part of a reform of local authorities throughout England and Wales. Under the reorganisation, the area surrounding the cities of Bath and Bristol was formed into a new county of "Avon", named after the river that ran through the area.
