Boundaries
The Representation of the People Act 1918 defined the constituency as consisting of the county of Forfar, except the county of the city of Dundee and the burghs of Montrose, Arbroath, Brechin, and Forfar. The four excepted burghs formed part of the Montrose District of Burghs.
The county of Forfarshire was renamed Angus in 1928. However, no change was made in the name of the constituency prior to its abolition.
