1937 Kesteven County Council election information


The administrative county of Kesteven (1889–1974), shown within England.

Elections to Kesteven County Council were held on Saturday, 6 March 1937. Kesteven was one of three divisions of the historic county of Lincolnshire in England; it consisted of the ancient wapentakes (or hundreds) of Aswardhurn, Aveland, Beltisloe, Boothby Graffoe, Flaxwell, Langoe, Loveden, Ness, and Winnibriggs and Threo.[1] The Local Government Act 1888 established Kesteven as an administrative county, governed by a Council;[2] elections were held every three years from 1889, until it was abolished by the Local Government Act 1972, which established Lincolnshire County Council in its place.[3][4]

For the 1937 elections, there were contests in 8 divisions: Ancaster, Billingborough, Bracebridge, Caythorpe, Claypole, Grantham no. 3, Rippingale, and Thurlby. In all of the other divisions, only one candidate was nominated and they were returned unopposed.
