Previous Chairmen of Bradfield Parish Council
Records of meetings exist as far back as 1894, when until approximately 1910 it would appear that Chairs were elected at each meeting held and not for a years term. Records also suggest that sometimes, only one or two meetings were held yearly.
From 1910 the Chairman was elected annually.
