Civil Parishes
Over its existence the rural district consisted of the following civil parishes:
- Arkley (formed from the rural part of the parish of Chipping Barnet in 1894)
- Elstree
- Ridge
- Shenley
- Totteridge
Totteridge constituted an exclave. Arkley became part of the Barnet Urban District in 1905, and was joined there by Totteridge in 1914.
