Template:Use British English The Manchester City Police (also known as the Metropolitan Manchester City Police and from 1842 to 1853 the Manchester Borough Police[1]) was, from the early 19th century until 1968, the territorial police force of the city of Manchester, in northern England.
Charge-books of the Manchester Division of the Lancashire County Constabulary 1842 to 1854, and summons-books 1847 to 1862, are held in the Lancashire Record Office.[2]
Sir Robert Peacock was Chief Constable of Manchester from 1898 to 1926.[3] In 1927, Manchester City Police was the first force in the United Kingdom to employ a female police surgeon when they appointed Nesta Wells.[4] In 1937, Manchester City Police moved into a new headquarters building in Bootle Street, designed by the Manchester City Architect, G. Noel Hill.[5]
Under the provisions of the Police Act 1964, Manchester City Police merged with the Salford City Police to create the Manchester and Salford Police.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
