Moulton Rural District
Moulton was a rural district in Suffolk, England from 1894 to 1935. It covered the area to the east of the town of Newmarket.
The district was created in 1894 as the Suffolk part of the Newmarket rural sanitary district, the Cambridgeshire part becoming Newmarket Rural District.
It was abolished in 1935 and most of the district became part of Mildenhall Rural District, which merged with Newmarket urban district in 1974 to create the now modern Forest Heath. The parishes of Lidgate and Ousden instead became part of Clare Rural District and are now in neighbouring St Edmundsbury.
