 When
Rushden Urban District Council ceased it was proposed to use the
chain and ‘jewel’ for the new district council, with
the permission of the original donors. The RUDC monogram and names
of the former chairmen were erased in order for those of the district
to be engraved, which continues to this day.
It was decided to seek new civic regalia for the newly formed Rushden
Town Council, which was made possible by the generous donations
from local businesses, the union KAFAT and individual members of
the council including one member of the former Rushden Urban District
Council. The ‘jewels’ of all four new chains are hand
painted and depict Rushden Hall, St Mary’s Parish
