== History ==

The British took possession of Agra in 1803, and until 1829, the civil administration of the city was conducted by a 'Collector' under the orders of the commissioners of the [[Ceded and Conquered Provinces]]. Between 1833 and 1835, Agra had its own Presidency, but this was abolished and the city was taken into the [[North-Western Provinces]]. The first Lieutenant-Governor installed there was [[Charles Metcalfe]]. Agra remained the seat of government for the province until 1858, when the administration was transferred to [[Allahabad]]. Ten years later, the High Court of Judicature followed.
