Садбери был парламентским избирательным округом , который был представлен в Палате общин в парламенте Соединенного Королевства .

История [ править ]

Парламентский городок , состоящий из города Садбери в графстве Саффолк , избирательный округ вернулся два членов парламента (MPS) с 1559 , пока не был бесправным коррупции в 1844 году, после чего он был поглощен в Западном округе Саффолк . Выборы Садбери 1835 года, о которых Чарльз Диккенс сообщил в Morning Chronicle , по мнению многих экспертов, послужили источником вдохновения для знаменитых выборов Итансвилла в его романе «Записки Пиквика» . [1]

Он был восстановлен как одно из пяти одномандатных округов Парламентского графства Саффолк Законом о перераспределении мест 1885 года для всеобщих выборов 1885 года , избрав одного члена парламента первым, прошедшим систему голосования по почте . Он был отменен на всеобщих выборах 1950 года .

Границы и изменения границ [ править ]

1885–1918 : Часть муниципального района Садбери в графстве Саффолк, Сессионные подразделения Боксфорда, Косфорда, Мелфорда и Рисбриджа, а также части Сессионных подразделений Ньюмаркет и Тинго и Тедвестри. [2]

Подразделение графства было сформировано из части упраздненного Западного дивизиона, включая Садбери , Хэдли и Хаверхилл .

1918–1950 : муниципальный район Садбери, городские округа Глемсфорд, Хэдли и Хаверхилл, сельские округа Клэр, Косфорд и Мелфорд, а также части сельских округов Моултон и Тинго. [3]

Незначительные изменения границ.

После упразднения западная и северная части, включая Хаверхилл, были переведены в Бери-Сент-Эдмундс . Центральная, южная и западная части, включая Садбери и Хэдли, вошли в состав нового округа Садбери и Вудбридж .
