Surry Hills was an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly in the Australian state of New South Wales, named after and including Surry Hills and was originally created in the 1904 re-distribution of electorates following the 1903 New South Wales referendum, which required the number of members of the Legislative Assembly to be reduced from 125 to 90.{{cite web |url=http://www.atlas.nsw.gov.au/public/nsw/home/topic/article/1904-redistribution.html |title=1904 Redistribution |work=Atlas of New South Wales |publisher=NSW Land & Property Information |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150623031821/http://www.atlas.nsw.gov.au/public/nsw/home/topic/article/1904-redistribution.html |archive-date=23 June 2015 |url-status=dead}} It consisted of part of the abolished seat of Sydney-Flinders and parts of Sydney-Cook and Randwick. In 1920, with the introduction of proportional representation, it was absorbed into Sydney. It was recreated in 1927 and abolished in 1930.{{NSW Parliamentary Record |part=5B |access-date=2020-10-26}}{{cite web |title=Former Members |work=Members of Parliament |publisher=Parliament of New South Wales |url=https://www.parliament.nsw.gov.au/members/formermembers/pages/former-members-index.aspx |access-date=2020-10-26}}{{cite NSW election |title=Elections for the District of Surry Hills |year=DistrictIndexes |district=Surry Hills |access-date=2020-10-26}}
