Geschiedenis
In 1889 County Council policy was directed by 72 members and administered under the leadership of Sir Richard Nicolson, Clerk of the County Council, and a handful of staff. The number of members had risen to 116 by 1952 and by 1965 the County staff numbered some 32,000, of whom 2,000 head office staff occupied the Guildhall and five other offices in Westminster. This indicates the tremendous increase in administrative work under successive Clerks of the County Council.
In the years between the two wars a semi-rural county became an almost completely urbanised area. The introduction of new legislation made ever increasing demands upon members of the administrative staff, involving in later years monthly meetings of some 50 committees and sub-committees.
The Middlesex County Council Clerks of the Council were:
Sir Richard Nicholson, 1889-1909
Walter George Austin, 1909-1918
Sir Ernest Walter Sidney Hart, 1919-1935
Sir Clifford Walter Radcliffe, 1935-1954
Kenneth Goodacre, 1955-1965.
