Shellmouth-Boulton

Shellmouth-Boulton is an administrative sector in Manitoba's Parkland Region that encompasses farmland and several small rural communities spread across the landscape. The sector operates from an administrative office located in Inglis, serving the local population with municipal services.

The sector was created in 1999 when two separate rural municipalities merged: Boulton, established in 1883, and Shellmouth, established in 1907. In 2015, it combined with Silver Creek to form the Rural Municipality of Riding Mountain West.

The administrative district includes multiple small communities such as Cracknell, Dropmore, Endcliffe, Inglis, Lennard, Petlura, and Shell Valley.

The administrative office in Inglis provides access to local services and information for anyone needing to interact with the sector's government functions. The area primarily serves as a hub for the surrounding rural communities rather than a destination with attractions.

The municipality ceased its independent existence in 2015 when it merged with Silver Creek to form the new Rural Municipality of Riding Mountain West.
