Stamford Town Council was formerly a Borough Council prior to the local government re-organisation in 1974.  Although a Town Council, its responsibilities and powers are the same as any Parish Council together with certain Civic duties it is required to undertake within it's Parish boundary.  Responsibilities include the management of the cemetery, the Town’s allotments, the Recreation Ground and Town Meadows.  In addition, the councillors are appointed as Trustees of the Harry Skells Estate Trust and administer the funds available from the Trust.
