The County of Huntingdon and Peterborough was formed on 1, April
1965, by the amalgamation of Huntingdonshire County Council and the
Soke of Peterborough County Council, with the addition of Thorney
Rural District from the Isle of Ely, and part of Eaton Socon from
Bedfordshire. The County Council came to an end on 31, March 1974,
when it was replaced by Cambridgeshire County Council.
The vast majority of original records, including the minute
books, are held at Shire Hall in Cambridge, as they are often still
consulted by the present County Council.
Some printed agendas, reports and abstracts of minutes 1965-1974
are held at Huntingdon Record Office.
A duplicate set of minutes for 1965-1974 is held at Peterborough
Central Library.
