Administrative / Biographical History

Formed under the Local Government Act 1888, the County Council took over many administrative duties of the Court of Quarter Sessions, such as responsibility for roads, bridges, county rates, county buildings, the police force, and licensing. In 1889, the administrative and welfare responsibilities were transferred to the first elected county council (56 members). Further responsibilities in secondary education, technical education and agriculture were added. The Council was relocated from Beaumaris to the new shire hall in Llangefni.
