Summary

Historical map of Great Britain, originally from www.abcounties.co.uk

The purpose of this map is to give a reasonably accurate large-scale representation of the 86 'traditional' counties of Britain as they existed before 1974. No claim to small-scale planimetric accuracy is made. For the sake of convenience and practicality only the greatest detached parts (exclaves) are shown (in descending size order, those of Lancashire (i.e. Furness), Flintshire (3), Dunbartonshire and Worcestershire (2)). All other detached parts are shown as part of the county surrounding them. Due to the fragmentary nature of Cromartyshire, it is shown as a single geographical area with Ross-shire, the combined area being labelled "Ross-shire and Cromartyshire".

The map may be copied and used freely. However, the Association of British Counties would appreciate an acknowledgement and a link to our site.
