CYD-DESTUN
Hanes bywgraffyddol/gweinyddol: The Denbighshire Constabulary was formed in c. 1849. The Constabulary was arranged into two divisions, A Division (Wrexham), and B Division (Denbigh); divisions maintained records including crime registers, summons books, registers of charges, accident books and visits books. In the late 19th century, the force's headquarters were in Wrexham. In 1967, the Constabulary merged with the Flintshire and Gwynedd Police authorities. Following local government reorganisation in 1974, the enlarged Gwynedd Police became North Wales Police. One of the early Chief Constables was Major Leadbetter (fl. 1858-1890), who had to deal with civil unrest in the 1880s, including the 1887 'Tithe War' protests.
