Erewash, Administrative district in Derbyshire, UK.
The borough of Erewash spans 42 square miles across eastern Derbyshire, containing two major towns: Ilkeston and Long Eaton, plus thirteen civil parishes.
Established in 1974 through the Local Government Act of 1972, Erewash merged several former districts and received its borough status in June of that year.
The district maintains two separate town halls in Ilkeston and Long Eaton, reflecting the dual urban nature of its administrative structure and community centers.
The borough provides local government services to over 113,000 residents through the Erewash Borough Council, while county services are managed by Derbyshire County Council.
The River Erewash forms the eastern boundary of the district, while the Rivers Trent and Derwent define its southern limits, creating natural borders.
