Basford was an rural district close to Nottinghammarker, Englandmarker, from 1894 to 1974. The district consisted of two detached parts, to the north and south of Nottinghammarker. It was created under the Local Government Act 1894 based on the existing Basford rural sanitary district.

The Nottingham suburb of Basfordmarker was not part of the rural district, having been added to Nottingham in 1877.

Bilboroughmarker, Wollatonmarker and parts of both Bestwood Park and Colwickmarker were transferred to the City of Nottinghammarker in 1933. The area of Leake Rural Districtmarker was added in 1935.

In 1952 parts of the Clifton with Glapton and Ruddingtonmarker parishes were also transferred to the City of Nottingham.

In 1974 the district was split between the new non-metropolitan districts of Ashfieldmarker, Broxtowemarker, Gedlingmarker and Rushcliffemarker. The parishes of Annesleymarker, Felleymarker and Selstonmarker went to Ashfield; the parishes of Awsworthmarker, Brinsleymarker, Cossallmarker, Greasleymarker, Kimberleymarker, Nuthallmarker, Strelleymarker and Trowellmarker went to Broxtowe; the parishes of Bestwood Park, Burton Joycemarker, Calvertonmarker, Lambleymarker, Linbymarker, Newsteadmarker, Papplewickmarker, Stoke Bardolphmarker and Woodboroughmarker went to Gedling, and the rest to Rushcliffe including the small towns of Ruddingtonmarker and Radcliffe on Trentmarker.
