SuperMe79 Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 Perhaps the areas could be made a little less confusing with the help of a map of the UK counties? London is in Middlesex which is not adjacent to Hampshire and makes the 'London and Hampshire' grouping a little odd?http://www.abcounties.co.uk/counties/webmap.gif Quote
Guest Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 Well yeah it doesn't make sense the London & Hampshire. Sure they must have had a good reason. Did you used to ride an SV as your pic is familiar.....? Are you from SV.org? Quote
Guest Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 If that map was any older it would have shown Boadicea's encampment! Quote

Grumpy Old Git Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 And....Huntingdonshire does not even exist (not since the 'middle ages') although we do still have a "Huntingdonshire district Council".Must be great to have a job administrating something that does not exist!! Quote
red Posted November 10, 2008 Posted November 10, 2008 Yeah odd that, it's Huntingdonshire all the way up to Yaxley, there are even signs for it.. yet it's apparently not a county Quote
chicane Posted November 11, 2008 Posted November 11, 2008 Interesting from a historical point of view though Quote
nman1 Posted November 12, 2008 Posted November 12, 2008 Huntingdonshire as a county was absorbed into cambridgeshire in 1974."Huntingdonshire was a political unit and a social institution for some eleven hundred years until in 1974 it was absorbed into Cambridgeshire. Though always small and rural, Huntingdonshire had its moments of glory and produced far more than its share of historical characters. “ Quote
