Peterborough Rural District
The council offices were at 51 Priestgate, in the city of Peterborough.The rural district was created under the Local Government Act 1894, from the part of the Peterborough rural sanitary district that was in the administrative county of Soke of Peterborough (the rest, in Huntingdonshire, formed the Norman Cross Rural District).In 1929 the city's boundaries were extended, with six of the rural district's parishes being absorbed.Local government reorganisation abolished the Soke in 1965 and the rural district was transferred to the new administrative county of Huntingdon and Peterborough.[1] The rural district consisted of the following civil parishes:
