The constituency comprised the Urban District of Beaconsfield and parts of the Rural District of Amersham, transferred from the Aylesbury constituency, and the Rural District of Eton, transferred from Eton & Slough.
The constituency was abolished for the February 1974 general election, when major boundary changes split the area between the new constituencies of Beaconsfield and Chesham & Amersham. The parts of the Rural District of Amersham were included in Chesham and Amersham. Beaconsfield and the Rural District of Eton formed the bulk of the Beaconsfield constituency.
