The Electoral district of County of Durham was an electorate of the New South Wales Legislative Council at a time when some of its members were elected and the balance were appointed by the Governor.[1] It was named after Durham County, which lies on the north side of the Hunter River.

It was created by the 1843 Electoral Districts Act and initially returned one member.[1] It returned two members with the expansion of the Council in 1851 to 54, 18 to be appointed and 36 elected.[2] In 1856 the unicameral Legislative Council was abolished and replaced with an elected Legislative Assembly and an appointed Legislative Council. The district was represented by the Legislative Assembly electorate of Durham
