Information

The Soke of Peterborough stops being ceremonially and traditionally part of  Northamptonshire, where it had been since  the Domesday Book and merges with the County of Huntingdonshire to form the County of Huntingdon and Peterborough, an administrative and geographical county. This lasts only until 1974 when Peterborough became part of Cambridgeshire.
