Cambridge City Police

Cambridge City Police was the territorial police force responsible for law enforcement in Cambridge, England, from 1836 to 1965. From its creation until April 1951 it was known as Cambridge Borough Police.[1] It subsequently merged with four other police forces to become what is known today as Cambridgeshire Constabulary.

History

The Cambridge Borough Police was established on 21 January 1836 to police within the boundary of the borough, an area much smaller then than it is today. At this time, the force employed just thirty police officers.

Outside the town and borough there were no other police forces in Cambridgeshire until April 1851 when the Cambridgeshire County Constabulary was established, initially employing a total of seventy officers.

In 1951 the Borough of Cambridge was granted city status by HM King George VI. The force title was changed accordingly.

On 31 March 1965, five police forces — Cambridge City Police, Isle of Ely Constabulary, Huntingdonshire Constabulary, Peterborough Combined Police and Cambridgeshire County Constabulary — were united to form the Mid-Anglia Constabulary, headquartered in Brampton. Following alterations to local government boundaries the force name was changed on 31 March 1974 to Cambridgeshire Constabulary.
