1875 Horsham by-election

The 1875 Horsham by-election was fought on 17 December 1875.

It was won by the Liberal candidate Robert Henry Hurst (junior). who had previously been MP for the seat but was defeated at the previous General Election.

This election was declared void and Hurst did not stand in the by-election in 1876.
