Christchurch Borough Council
Christchurch Council is now part of the BCP Council
Christchurch is a local government district which has borough status. It is the smallest of Dorset County Council’s six districts and one of the smallest boroughs in England by population. The district was formed by the merger of the Municipal Borough of Christchurch with part of Ringwood and Fordingbridge Rural District in 1974. Since then it has been part of the non-metropolitan county of Dorset. It has some large rural areas including Bournemouth International Airport and the parishes of Burton and Hurn. For local elections the borough is divided into 11 wards containing 24 councillors.
