Talk:Subdivisions of England

An explanation of the difference between "Cities" and "Cities and Boroughs" would be useful here. Vicki Rosenzweig

I agree. The reference used here is the CIA World Fact Book, and even if I do not doubt that the facts are correct, my experience is that it can sometimes be structured in an archetypical way, which may lead to misinterpretation. I am just surprised over the lack of structure for the articles on the subdivisons of England and the UK and this is what I'm trying to adress. -- Mic

- It looks like the term "city borough" is no longer used. A Google search of the official .gov.uk domain reveals mention of no "city and borough"s and only three "city boroughs": Peterborough, Durham and Sunderland. The last two in historical contexts. Of the three, only Sunderland appears on the CIA's list. As the 2002 fact book didn't include Wolverhampton's or Brighton's promotion to city status in 2000, I expect it's also missed out the end of "city borough"s.

Google's cache reveals that at www.government-online.co.uk (http://www.government-online.co.uk) (a limited company in Stockport, not a governemnt site) there used to be a lot of pages referring to "Manchester city borough council" etc., which have now changed to read "Manchester city concil".

I've rearranged the lists to bring "cities" and "city boroughs" together and questioned the distinction. Andy G 20:44 19 Jun 2003 (UTC)

This is an absolutely weird article; the administrative regions of England are as follows:

• Shire counties, eg Cornwall, with their component
  • district councils
• Unitary authorities like Rutland and Brighton and Hove
• Metropolitan counties like West Yorkshire, with their component
  • metropolitan districts, eg Bradford MDC
• London boroughs (royal boroughs no distinction)

Yes it's certainly odd, but I expect the CIA got their classifications from somewhere. It would be nice to trace where they did come from before replacing them with more up-to-date groupings. Incidentally-

• Metropolitan counties no longer exist administratively; see article. E.g. West Midlands is now Birmingham, Coventry, Sandwell[?], Dudley[?] etc. The names are still commonly used as a geographical convenience.
• Two of the Unitary Authoriites, Rutland and Herefordshire are also historical shire counties - is "shire counties" the right name?

The regions named certainly match those on the Ordnance Survey administratvie map of GB (http://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/freegb/index.htm#maps), so it's just the groupings that are odd. Andy G 19:55 1 Jul 2003 (UTC)

There, sitting sociably on my advice, I certainly acted upon it to the letter. If ever I was snored in blissful ignorance of my plight. Slight rustling sounds saw other black spiders running to and fro on the silver, sandy meditating an assault upon Jones's ear. Another, grizzled and tentative feelers into Wallace's cap. I saw black spots darting tarantulas! Not improbably my strong impression that the spider on my knee imagination. But it sufficed to bring to mind, in one rapid, of the wicked return unto them again. I slipped back into my sleeping-bag, with a keen consciousness of hermetically sealed me up "Hey! Jones! Wallace! Frank! Jim!" I yelled, from the depths of from their dreams. "The cave's alive with tarantulas!" I cried, trying to hide my delicatly prevents the repetition of all save the old warrior's million--centipedes, scorpions, bats! Rattlesnakes, too, I'll gathered that my long friend from California must have.
