Stanground North is a former civil parish in the Peterborough district, in the ceremonial county of Cambridgeshire, England. The 2001 census recorded a population of zero. The parish, which covered open fields on a flood plain of the River Nene, was abolished in 2004.

History[edit]

The parish was originally created on 1 October 1905, when Stanground parish was divided into two (Stanground South became part of Old Fletton urban district),[1] having hitherto been the only parish to still cross a county border.[2] It had a peak population of 43 in the census of 1921.[3]

Between 1905 and 1974, Stanground North was one of only two parishes in the Thorney Rural District. In 1974, it became part of the Peterborough district of Cambridgeshire.[3] On 1 April 2004 the parish was abolished.[4]
