Barnack Rural District




It was created in 1894 under the Local Government Act 1894 , from that part of the Stamford Rural Sanitary District which was in the Soke (the rest formed either Ketton Rural District in Rutland , Easton On The Hill Rural District in Northamptonshire proper, or Uffington Rural District in Lincolnshire, Parts Of Kesteven ).

It included the parishes of Bainton , Barnack , Southorpe , Stamford Baron St Martins Without , Thornhaugh , Ufford , Wansford , Wittering and Wothorpe in the Soke. It also had administrative responsibility for the parish of Sibson Cum Stibbington , which was over the border in Peterborough . This was made part of the Norman Cross Rural District in 1935.

It was abolished in 1974 under the Local Government Act 1972 , becoming part of the larger Peterborough district in the new non-metropolitan county of Cambridgeshire .
