<P>The first table below
shows the historic counties and their administrative sub-divisions before
the first round of changes and lists the successor regions for each, that
is the post-change regions which contain some or all of the original county
area. The second table shows the regions after the first round of changes
and lists their successor unitary authorities. In all cases
only the top-tier authority is shown - either the top-tier in a two-tier
arrangement or a single tier authority (shown italicised).</P>
<P>The tables also show the Chapman County Codes (CCC) for each county and
region. These are unique 3 letter codes.</P>
<P>For a brief description of the administrative changes in the United Kingdom
see - <A HREF="UKchanges.html">Local Government Changes in the United
Kingdom</A>.</P>
