Just to save ANY confusion the county of Huntingdonshire is currently a
"district"
as far as local government boundaries are concerned but in the
minds of everyone who lives here it is still a county. The government of the
day knew this when they changed the boundaries because they left the name as
a 'shire', likely as not it will soon be a county again the next time the
government plays with the local government boundaries. When will they learn
to stop fiddling about with things that have worked well for over a thousand
years?
If you are interested in ensuring that we keep our heritage and maintain the geographical county of Huntingdonshire, then why not join the Huntingdonshire Society or visit the town.
The upgrade of our websites in Huntingdonshire continues at a pace, the latest addition here is the new EVENT diary that brings together information that we are gathering on our town websites to display it in one convenient place - here!
