Mablethorpe had been created as an urban district in Lincolnshire, Parts of Lindsey in 1894 under the Local Government Act 1894. In 1925 it was joined in the urban district by the parishes of Sutton in the Marsh and Trusthope, from Spilsby Rural District and Louth Rural District respectively, and therefore changed its name.
Its urban district status was abolished by the Local Government Act 1972 in 1974, with the district authority becoming East Lindsey, whilst Mablethorpe and Sutton remained civil parish with a town council.
