Dartmouth 1868 Parliamentary Boundary Commission Review Town Administration Documents Maps Maps of the Dartmouth Area 19thC
DHRG No. 103197
The 1867 Reform Act increased the size of the electorate in the Borough of Dartmouth (as elsewhere) in parliamentary elections. A Boundary Review was undertaken in 1868 but no changes were made to Dartmouth. However, it was very soon overtaken by the Representation of the People (Scotland) Act in 1868, in which seven boroughs with populations of less than 5000 were disenfranchised to enable more seats to be given to Scotland without changing the total number of MPs in the House of Commons. Dartmouth was one of the seven losing its remaining MP. Thereafter it was included within the South Devon constituency. Includes map (using OS map). Used with permission.
