Former county in New Zealand
Oxford County was one of the counties of New Zealand in the South Island.
Oxford County Council was first elected on 20 April 1912, with 4 members from the North Riding and 3 from the South Riding.[1]
On 1 April 1989 Rangiora District, Eyre County (except south of Waimakariri River), Oxford County, Kaiapoi Borough, Hurunui County’s Mount Thomas riding west of the Okuku River, Waimakariri- Ashley Water Supply Board, Kaiapoi Municipal Electricity Department and Waimakariri Harbour Board merged to form Waimakariri District as part of the 1989 local government reforms.[2]
The County used the Waimakariri-Ashley Water Supply Board office in the Main Street at Oxford.[3]
