Ceiriog was a rural district in the administrative county of Denbighshire from 1935 to 1974.

The rural district was formed by a County Review Order in 1935 from the merger of Chirk and Llansillin Rural districts. The district was named after the Ceiriog Valley.

The district contained nine civil parishes:
*Chirk
*Glyntraen
*Llanarmon Dyffryn Ceiriog
*Llanarmon Mynydd Mawr
*Llangadwaladr
*Llangedwyn
*Llanrhaedr ym Mochnant
*Llansantffraid Glynceiriog
*Llansillan The rural district was abolished in 1974 by the Local Government Act 1972, with its area becoming part of the district of Glyndŵr, one of six districts in the new county of Clwyd.
