St. George's, Hanover Square was a parliamentary constituency in Central London. It returned one Member of Parliament to the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom, elected by the first past the post system of election.

History

The constituency was created under the Redistribution of Seats Act 1885, and was named after the parish of the same name. "Hanover Square" was included in the name to distinguish it from the other St George's constituency (in Tower Hamlets). It was abolished in 1918, with the majority of the electorate going to Westminster St. George's.

Boundaries

The constituency was defined in the Redistribution of Seats Act 1885 as "The Parish of St George, Hanover Square".
