These Acts did not impose a uniform system of local public health authorities on the whole country simultaneously, but enabled individual localities, following certain procedures, to adopt the provisions of the Acts and become local boards of health if they so wished. Consequently, local boards were set up at different dates in different areas, and in some areas none were set up at all. They were usually set up only at the request of local inhabitants (a petition of one tenth of the ratepayers had to be presented) but in areas with a very high death rate it was possible for the Acts to be imposed by the General Board of Health. It was not until the passing of the Public Health Act of 1872 (35 and 36 Vict. ch.79) that an attempt was made to establish a comprehensive system of local authorities for public health matters. The country was divided by the Act into urban sanitary and rural sanitary districts. Where local boards of health had been set up, these became the local authorities in the urban sanitary districts (except in municipal boroughs, where the borough council was the sanitary authority).

GLAMORGAN RECORD OFFICE/ARCHIFDY MORGANNWG Reference code : GB 214 BUBY Title : YSTRADYFODWG BURIAL BOARD Dates of creation : 1871 - 1896 Level of description: Fonds Extent : 1 box and 1 outsize box; 0.05 cubic metres Names of creators Ystradyfodwg Burial Board (c.1871 - 1896); Llantrisant District Burial Board (1879 - 1896); Llanwonno District Burial Board (1879 - 1896). Administrative history By the mid nineteenth century, many church and chapel graveyards were full, particularly in populous areas. In an attempt to to solve this problem, the Burial Act of 1853 (16 & 17 Vict. c.134) enabled parish vestries to establish burial boards, if they so wished, to provide and manage new burial grounds. These burial boards, consisting of between three and nine parish ratepayers, could purchase land for a cemetery and provide chapels; money was to be raised through a precept on the poor rates. Borough councils were allowed to establish similar burial boards by an Act of 1854 (17 &18 Vict. c.87) and local boards of health enabled to do the same by the Local Government Act of 1858; by the Sanitary Act of 1866, an existing burial board could transfer its powers to a local board. The Local Government Act of 1894 enabled all civil parishes in rural districts to exercise the powers of burial boards; under section 62, the 1894 Act also enabled the newly-created urban district councils to take over any burial boards in their area if they so wished. In summary, between 1853 and 1894, burial boards could be set up by either parish vestries, borough councils, or local boards of health, and these burial boards could provide cemeteries.
