History
In 1687, Uluberia, which was a scanty hamlet of a group of houses, served as a refuge for the retreating British Army after they were defeated by Shaista Khan near Hooghly. In Gadiara, the confluence of Hooghly, Damodar and Rupnarayan, Robert Clive commissioned the construction of Fort Mornington in Gadiara. Around late 1760s, it was completely built. It served as an important post of British dominance and prevention of piracy up in the Ganges. In 1873 the present Uluberia subdivision was constituted in the name of “Mahishrekha” which was subsequently renamed as Uluberia in 1882.
