    The boundaries of the constituency were unaltered at the next redistribution of seats, which came into effect in 1974. Counties and burghs were abolished for local government purposes in 1975, but parliamentary boundaries were unaffected until 1983. In that year the constituency was abolished. A new Kincardine and Deeside constituency was formed with similar boundaries.
