Geschiedenis
The County Council acquired over the years large areas of land and many buildings, in order to carry out its statutory functions, and the responsibility for these properties fell to the Estates and Valuation service. The types of property acquired or leased have covered the widest possible range and included houses, shops, commercial premises, sports grounds, country estates and land for schools and highways improvements.
Management of all properties acquired until brought into use for operational purposes was a major responsibility, as instanced by the Green Belt estates extending to some 10,000 acres and comprising farm holdings, country estates, and golf courses acquired to prevent development, thus preserving the amenities of the countryside.
