History: | An ancient parish in the hundred of Redbornstoke. In 1835 it was included in Ampthill Poor Law Union, which established a Rural Sanitary Authority in 1875. A separate Urban Sanitary District for Ampthill parish was set up in 1893 and became an Urban District the following year. At local government reorganisation in 1974 Ampthill UD was abolished and became part of Mid Bedfordshire District. In 2009 this unit was in turn abolished and replaced by Central Bedfordshire Unitary Authority. |
