It returned one Member of Parliament (MP) to the House of Commons of the United Kingdom, elected by the first past the post voting system.

Benn easily held the seat at the January 1910 election, with a reduced majority; Polling Day was fixed for the 1 March 1910.

The Liberals held the seat and managed a slightly increased majority; Benn was re-elected at the general election 9 months later.
