Electoral district of Monmouth

The Electoral district of Monmouth was a single-member electoral district of the Tasmanian House of Assembly. It was based in the rural hinterland to the north of the state capital, Hobart.

Not to be confused with Monmouth Land District.

The seat was created in a redistribution ahead of the 1903 state election out of the former seats of Brighton and Richmond, and was abolished when the Tasmanian parliament adopted the Hare-Clark electoral model in 1909. It had a single member during its existence, Thomas Hodgman.
