Mayor Of Canterbury
Canterbury was granted a city charter in 1448 which gave it the right to have a mayor and a sheriff. The city's web site records that King Henry VI decreed that the City should be "of one Mayor and one commonalty, wholly corporate for ever". The first mayor elected under royal charter was John Lynde. The responsibilities of mayors have diminished over the years.
