Talk:Mayor of Bournemouth

Latest comment: 2 years ago by Saint Michael 2010

Hello, Lewis Tregonwell was not Mayor of Bournemouth. The Mayors started in 1890 with Hankinson, when 'Bournemouth Borough Council' was set up. Before this there were the Bournemouth Improvement Commissioners, the chairman of the Commissioners was sometimes informally referred to as 'mayor'. but Tregonwell, despite being a leading force in making people aware of the town was never elected to any civic office, and was not Mayor.Saint Michael 2010 (talk) 13:51, 24 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
