Long Crendon Rural District

Long Crendon was a rural district in the administrative county of Buckinghamshire, England from 1894 to 1934.

Long Crendon Rural District had its origins in the Thame Poor Law Union, which had been created in 1835.

The poor law union was mostly in Oxfordshire but included some parishes in Buckinghamshire.

[3] Long Crendon Rural District Council held its first meeting on 4 January 1895 at the workhouse in Thame, when George Roads was appointed the first chairman.

Meetings of the council throughout its existence were held at the workhouse in Thame, whilst administrative functions were carried out at various offices in Thame, generally being the offices of the solicitors who acted as clerk to the council.
