ENGLAND. Geographical usage confines to the
southern part of the island of Great Britain the name commonly
given to the great insular power of western
Europe.
1 In this restricted sense the present
article deals with England, the predominant partner in the
United Kingdom
of Great Britain and Ireland, both as containing the seat of
government and in respect of extent, population and wealth.
I. Topography
England extends from the mouth of the
Tweed in 55° 46' N. to
Lizard Point in 49° 57' 30" N., in a
roughly triangular form. The base of the
triangle runs from the South Foreland to
Land's End W. by S., a
distance of 316 m. in a straight line, but 545 m. following the
larger curves of the coast. The east coast runs N.N.W. from the
South Foreland to
Berwick, a
distance of 348 m., or, following the coast, 640 m.

belong to the western principality of
Wales.
3 The most easterly point is at
Lowestoft, 1° 46' E., the
most
westerly is Land's
End, in 5° 43' W. The coasts are nowhere washed directly by the
ocean, except in the extreme south-west; the south coast faces the
English
Channel, which is bounded on the southern side by the coast of
France, the two shores
converging from loo m. apart at the
Lizard to 21 at
Dover.

off the mouth
of the Tweed, the opposite shores being occupied in succession by
France,
Belgium,
Holland,
Germany and
Denmark. The west coast faces the Irish Sea,
with a width varying from 45 to 130 m.

The area of England and Wales is 37,327,479 acres or 58,324 sq.
m. (England, 50,851 sq. m.), and the population on this area in
1901 was 32,527,843 (England, 30,807,232). The principal
territorial divisions of England, as of Wales, Scotland and
Ireland, are the counties, of which England comprises 40. Their
boundaries are not as a rule determined by the physical features of
the land; but localities are habitually defined by the use of their
names. A list of the English counties (excluding Wales) is given in
the table above.
42 Measurements made on a
map on the scale of 122 m. to I in., the coast
being assumed to run up estuaries until the breadth became 1 m.,
and no bays or headlands of less than I m. across being reckoned.
The coast-line of
Anglesea
and the
Isle of
Wight, but of no other islands, is included.
3 A separate topographical notice is
given under the heading
Wales, but the
consideration of certain points affecting Wales as linked with
England is essential in this article.
4 The figures given here are for the
ancient or geographical counties. Section IX., on
Territorial
Divisions, indicates the departures from the ancient county
boundaries made for certain purposes of administration. Each county
is treated in a separate article in the topographical, geological,
economical and historical aspects. Further topographical details
are given in separate articles on the more important hill-systems,
rivers, &c.
Hills
As an introduction to the discussion of the natural regions into
which England is divided (
Section II.), and for the sake of comparison of
altitudes, size of rivers and similar details, the salient
geographical features may be briefly summarized. The short
land-frontier of England with Scotland (its length is only loo m.)
is in great measure a physical boundary, as considerable lengths of
it are formed on the east side by the river Tweed, and on the west
by Kershope Burn, Liddel Water, and the river
Sark; while for the rest it follows pretty closely
the summit of the
Cheviot Hills, whose highest point is the
Cheviot (2676 ft.). A narrow but well-marked pass or depression,
known as the
Tyne Gap, is taken to separate the Cheviot system from
the
Pennine
Chain, which is properly to be described as a wide tract of
hillcountry, extending through two degrees of
latitude, on an axis from N. by W. to S. by E.
The highest point is Cross Fell (2930 ft.).
.^ I realize you may not consider yourself an uber celebrity, but I would like to state that you are a household name scrub.- : : : ZACHBRAFF : : : - Hi there. 18 January 2010 6:33 UTC www.zachbraff.com [Source type: FILTERED WITH BAYES]
In this tract is found the highest land in England,
Scafell Pike reaching 3210 ft. East of the Pennines,
isolated on three sides by lowlands and on the fourthsideby the
North Sea, lie the high
moors of
the North
Riding of
Yorkshire, with the
Cleveland
Hills, and, to the south, the Yorkshire Wolds of the East Riding.
Neither of these systems has any great elevation; the moors,
towards their north-western edge, reaching an extreme of 1489 ft.
in Urra
Moor. The tableland called
the Peak of
Derbyshire, in the south of the Pennine
system, is 2088 ft. in extreme height, but south of this system an
elevation of 2000 ft. is not found anywhere in England save at a
few points on the south Welsh border and in
Dartmoor, in the south-west. Wales, on the
other hand, projecting into the western sea between
Liverpool Bay and the
estuary of the
Dee on the north, and the
Bristol Channel on the south, is practically
all mountainous, and has in
Snowdon, in the north-west, a higher summit
than any in England-3560 ft. But the midlands, the west, and the
south of England, in spite of an absence of great elevation,
contain no plains of such extent as might make for monotony. The
land, generally undulating, is further diversified with hills
arranged in groups or ranges, a common characteristic of which is a
bold face on the one hand and a long gentle slope, with narrow
valleys deeply penetrating, on the other. Southward from the
Pennines there may be mentioned, in the midlands, the small
elevated tract of
Charnwood Forest (Bardon Hill, 912
ft.) in
Leicestershire, and
Cannock Chase (775 ft.) and the Clent Hills
(928 ft.), respectively north and south of the great manufacturing
district of
Birmingham
and
Wolverhampton. Of the western counties,
the southern half of
Shropshire,
Herefordshire and
Monmouthshire are
generally hilly. Among the Shropshire Hills may be mentioned the
isolated Wrekin (1335 ft.), Long Mynd (1674 ft.) and the Clee Hills
(Brown Clee, 1805 ft.). The >><< long ridge of the
Black Mountain
reaches an extreme height of 2310ft. on the Welsh border of
Herefordshire.

In western Monmouthshire, again
belonging to the south Welsh system, there are such heights as
Sugar Loaf (1955 ft.) and Coity (1905 ft.).
In the south midlands of England there are two main ranges of
hills, with axes roughly parallel. The western range is the
Cotteswold
Hills of
Gloucestershire and the counties
adjacent on the east running S.W. and N.E. Its highest point is
Cleeve
Cloud (1134 ft.). The
uplands of
Northamptonshire continue this range
north-eastward, decreasing in elevation. The eastern range,
beginning in
Wiltshire,
runs E.N.E. as the
White Horse Hills (856 ft. at the
highest point), and after the interruption caused by the gap or
narrow valley by which the river
Thames penetrates the hills near Goring,
continues N.E. as the
Chiltern Hills (850 ft.). The East
Anglian ridge continues the line E.N.E., gradually decreasing in
altitude.

Leith Hill in the North Downs reaches 965 ft.,
and Butser Hill in the South Downs 889 ft.; Blackdown and Hindhead,
two almost isolated masses of high ground lying between the two
ranges of the Downs towards their western extremity, are
respectively 918 and 895 ft. in height. In the north of
Hampshire along its
boundary with
Surrey and
Berkshire, in the southern
half of Wiltshire (where rises the upland of
Salisbury Plain), in
Dorsetshire, and the south of
Somersetshire, the
hills may be said to run in a series of connected groups. They
cannot be defined as a single range, nor are they named, as a rule,
according to the groups into which they fall, but the general title
of the Western Downs is applied to them.

in altitude, namely, Inkpen
Beacon (ioi i ft.) in the extreme
south-west of Berkshire, but heights above 900 ft. are not
infrequent. In the northern part of Somersetshire, two ranges,
short but well defined, lie respectively east and west of a low
plain which slopes to the Bristol Channel. These are the Mendips
(Black Down, 1068 ft.) and the Quantocks (Will's Neck, 1261 ft.).
The Blackdown Hills, in south-western Somersetshire and eastern
Devonshire, reach 1035 ft. in
Staple Hill in the first-named
county. In western Somersetshire and north Devonshire the elevated
mass of Exmoor reaches 1707 ft. in Dunkery Beacon; and in south
Devonshire the highest land in southern England is found in the
similar mass of Dartmoor (High Willhays, 2039 ft.). The westward
prolongation of the great south-western promontory of England,
occupied by the county of
Cornwall, continues as a rugged ridge broken
by a succession of depressions, and exceeds a height of Boo ft.,
nearly as far as the point where it falls to the ocean in the
cliffs of Land's End.
Lowlands
The localities of the more extensive lowlands of England may now
be indicated in their relation to the principal hill-systems, and
in this connexion the names of some of the more important rivers
will occur. In the extreme north-west is the so-called Solway
Plain, of no great extent, but clearly defined between the northern
foothills of the Lake District and the shore of Solway Firth. In
Lancashire a flat coastal
strip occurs between the western
front of the Pennine Chain and the Irish Sea, and, widening
southward, extends into
Cheshire and comprises the lower valleys of
the
Mersey and the Dee. In the
preceding review of the English hill-systems it may have been
observed that eastern England hardly enters into consideration. The
reason now becomes clear.
.^ But yes, East Coast (especially north east) rules!!!- : : : ZACHBRAFF : : : - Hi there. 18 January 2010 6:33 UTC www.zachbraff.com [Source type: FILTERED WITH BAYES]
Its character, however, varies in different parts. The
Fens, the flat open levels in the
lower basins of the
Witham,
Welland, Nene and Great
Ouse, only
kept from their former marshy conditions by an extensive system of
artificial drainage, and the similar levels round the head of the
Humber estuary, differ
completely in appearance from the higher and firmer parts of the
plain. The coast-land north of the mouth of the Thames is a low
plain; and on the south coast somewhat similar tracts are found in
Romney Marsh, and about the shallow inlets (Portsmouth
Harbour and others) which open from
Spithead. The vales of
Kent and
Sussex are rich undulating lowlands within the
area of
the Weald,
separated by the Forest Ridges, and enclosed by the North and South
Downs. In the south-west there is a fairly extensive
lowland in south Devonshire
watered by the Exe in its lower course. But the most remarkable
plain is that in Somersetshire, enclosed by the Mendips, the
Western Downs, Blackdown Hills and the Quantocks and entered by the
Parrett and other streams. The midlands, owing to the comparatively
slight elevation of the land, are capable of geographical
consideration as a plain. But it is not a plain in the sense of
that of
East Anglia.

Cardigan Bay of
the Welsh coast, and the Bristol Channel and Severn estuary.

from the sea. Thus
Buckingham appears to be the most inland
town in England, being 75 m. from the estuaries of the Severn,

The
formation of the coast varies from low, shifting

shingle or

different localities has been foreshadowed in the previous

On the Yorkshire coast the Cleveland Hills and the high moors are
cut off on the seaward side in magnificent cliffs, which reach the
greatest elevation of sea-cliffs on the English coast (666 ft.).

A
flat coast follows as far as Selsey Bill and Spithead, but the
south coast 410 [Physical Geography] of the Isle of Wight shows a
succession of splendid cliffs. The shallow inlet of
Poole Bay is followed by the
eminence of St Alban's Head,
and thereafter, right round the south-western promontory of
England, the cliff-bound coast, with its bays and inlets closely
beset with hills, predominates over the low shore-line, exhibits a
remarkable series of different forms, and provides the finest
scenery of its kind in England. The shores of the Severn estuary
are low, but the Welsh coast, sharing the general character of the
land, is more or less elevated throughout, though none of the
higher mountain-masses directly approaches the sea. Low shores
correspond to the plains of Cheshire, Lancashire and the Solway,
while the intervening coast is of no great elevation, as only the
foothills of the Lake District approach it with a gradual
slope.

A great extent of the English coast is constantly undergoing
visible alteration, the sea in some instances receding from the
land, and in others gaining upon it. The whole of Romney Marsh, in
Kent and Sussex, formerly constituted an arm of the sea, where
vessels rode in deep water, carrying produce to ports no longer in
existence.

estuary of the sea separating it from the mainland, through which
ships sailed from the English Channel into the Thames, using it as
the shortest route from the south to
London, has entirely disappeared, leaving only a
flat lowland traversed by branches of the river Stour to 1 Partly
belonging to Scotland.
2 The principal members of the Humber-system are the Ouse of
Yorkshire (121 m. long from the source of the Swale or Ure) and the
Trent (170 m.), qq.v. for their numerous important
tributaries.
3 Including the
Medway (680
sq. m.) in the drainage area.
4 Including the
Wye (1609 sq. m.)
and the Lower Avon (891 sq. m.) in the drainage area.
These rivers have their earlier courses in Wales, and flow at
first to some point of east. Of wholly Welsh rivers only the Towy
and the Teifi are comparable in length and drainage area with the
smaller rivers in the above list (see
Wales).

mark its former existence. The
sea is encroaching over a considerable extent of coast-line on the
North Sea as well as on the English Channel. Ravenspur, once an
important town of Yorkshire, where Bolingbroke, afterwards
Henry IV., landed in 1399, is
now submerged; and
Dunwich
and other ancient ports in East Anglia have met with the same fate.
The process of destruction, slow in some places, is so rapid in
others that it can be traced even from month to month - the
incessant work of the waves washing away the soft strata at the
base of the cliffs and leaving the summits unsupported. Many cliffs
of the east coast, from the Humber to the mouth of the Thames, are
suffering from this destructive action, and instances also occur on
the south coast. A royal commission on Coast Erosion was appointed
to inquire into this question in 1906 (see
Report, 1907
sqq.).
Except along the centre of the Irish Sea, at one point off the
Tweed and one between Devon and
Normandy, the depth of water between England
and the nearest land nowhere exceeds 50 fathoms.
Rivers
The variations in length of the general slope of the land
towards successive natural divisions of the coast may be
illustrated by a comparative table of the mileage and drainage
areas of the principal English rivers. The mileage does not take
account of the lesser sinuosities of rivers.
With the exception of those in the Lake District (q.v.) the
lakes of England are few and insignificant. A number of small meres
occur in a defined area in Cheshire. (0. J. R. H.)
II. Physical
Geography
The object of this section is to give a physical description of
England and Wales according to natural regions, which usually
follow the
geology of the
country very closely; although the relationship of configuration
and geology is not so simple or so clearly marked as in
Scotland.

The study of
the scenery of England and Wales as a whole, or the study of
orographical and geological maps of the country, allows a broad
distinction to be drawn between the types of land-forms in the west
and in the east. This distinction is essential, and applies to all
the conditions of which
geography takes account. The contrasted
districts are separated by an intermediate area, which softens the
transition between them, and may be described separately.
The Western Division is composed entirely of Archaean and
Palaeozoic rocks, embracing the whole range from
pre-Cambrian up to
Carboniferous.

Contemporary igneous outbursts are extremely common in some of the
ancient formations, and add, by their resistance to atmospheric
erosion, to the extreme ruggedness of the scenery. The hills and
uplands of ancient rocks do not form regular ranges, but rise like
islands in four distinct groups from a plain of New Red
Sandstone (Permian and
Triassic),
which separates them from each other and from the newer rocks of
the Eastern Division.

The Eastern Division, lying to the east of the zone of New Red
Sandstone, may be defined on the west by a slightly curved line
drawn from the estuary of the Tees through
Leicester and
Stratford-on-Avon to the estuary of
the Severn, and thence through
Glastonbury to
Sidmouth.

In exactly the
same way the whole of the south-east of the island appears to have
been covered uniformly with gently dipping beds of
Tertiary sands and clays,
beneath which the Cretaceous strata dipped. At some period
subsequent to this deposition there was a movement of elevation,
which appears to have thrown the whole mass of rocks into a
fold along an anticlinal axis running
west and east, which was flanked to north and south by synclinal
hollows. In these hollows the Tertiary rocks were protected from
erosion, and remain to form the London and the Hampshire Basins
respectively, while on the anticlinal axis the whole of the
Tertiary and the upper Cretaceous strata have been dissected away,
and a complex and beautiful configuration has been impressed on the
district of the Weald. The general character of the landscape in
the Eastern Division is a succession of steep escarpments formed by
the edges of the outcropping beds of harder rock, and long gentle
slopes or plains on the
dip-slopes,
or on the softer layers;
clay and
hard rock alternating throughout the series.
The contrast between the lower grounds of the Western and the
Eastern Divisions is masked in many places by the general covering
of the surface with glacial
drift, which is usually a stiff clay composed on
the whole of the detritus of the rocks upon which it rests, though
containing fragments of rocks which have been transported from a
considerable distance. This
boulder clay covers almost all the low
ground north of the Thames Basin, its southern margin fading away
into washed sands and gravels.
The history of the origin of the land-forms of England, as far
as they have been deduced from geological studies, is exceedingly
complicated. The fact that every known geological formation (except
the Miocene) is represented, proves of itself how long the history
has been, and how multifarious the changes. It must suffice to say
that the separation of Ireland from England was a comparatively
recent
episode, while the
severance of the landconnexion between England and the continent by
the formation of the Strait of Dover is still more recent and
probably occurred with the human period.
Natural Divisions
The four prominent groups of high land rising from the plain of
the Red Rocks are: (1) the
Lake District, bounded by the
Solway Firth, Morecambe Bay and the
The valleys of the
Eden and the Lune; (2) the
Pennine western. . which
stretches from the Scottish border to the
division centre
of England, running south; (3)
Wales, occupying the
peninsula between the Mersey and the Bristol Channel, and extending
beyond the political boundaries of the principality to include
Shropshire and Hereford; and (4) the peninsula of
Cornwall and
Devon. They are all similar in the great features of their
land-forms, which have been impressed upon them by the prolonged
action of atmospheric denudation rather than by the original order
and arrangement of the rocks; but each group has its own geological
character, which has imparted something of a distinctive
individuality to the scenery.

Taken as a whole, the Western
Division depends for its prosperity on mineral products and
manufactures rather than on farming; and the staple of the farmers
is live-stock rather than
agriculture. The people of the more rugged
and remoter groups of this division are by race survivors of the
early Celtic stock, which, being driven by successive invaders from
the open and fertile country of the Eastern Division, found refuges
in the less inviting but more easily defended lands of the west.
Even where, as in the Pennine region and the Lake District, the
people have been completely assimilated with the Teutonic stock,
they retain a typical character, marked by independence of opinion
approaching stubbornness, and by great determination and
enterprise.
Lake District
The Lake District occupies the counties of
Cumberland,
Westmorland and North Lancashire. It forms
a roughly circular highland area, the drainage lines of which
radiate outward from the centre in a series of narrow valleys, the
upper parts of which cut deeply into the mountains, and the lower
widen into the surrounding plain.

The existing lakes
include
Windermere and
Coniston, draining south; Wastwater, draining south-west, Ennerdale
water, Buttermere and Crummock water (the two latter, originally
one lake, are now divided by a lateral
delta), draining north-west;
Derwent water and Bassenthwaite water (which
were probably originally one lake), and Thirlmere, draining north;
Ullswater and Haweswater, draining north-east. There are, besides,
numerous mountain tarns of small size, most of them in hollows
barred by the glacial drift which covers a great part of the
district. The central and most picturesque part of the district is
formed of great masses of volcanic ashes and tuffs, with intrusions
of basalts and
granite, all
of
Ordovician (Lower Silurian) age.
Scafell and Scafell Pike (3162 and 3210 ft.), at the head of
Wastwater, and Helvellyn (3118), at the head of Ullswater, are the
loftiest amongst many summits the grandeur of whose outlines is not
to be estimated by their moderate height. Sedimentary rocks of the
same age form a
belt to the north,
and include Skiddaw (3054 ft.); while to the south a belt of
Silurian rocks, thickly
covered with boulder clay, forms the finely wooded valleys of
Coniston and Windermere. Round these central masses of early
Palaeozoic rocks there is a broken ring of Carboniferous
Limestone, and several
patches of
Coal Measures, while
the New Red Sandstone appears as a boundary belt outside the
greater part of the district. Where the Coal Measures reach the sea
at
Whitehaven, there
are coal-mines, and the hematite of the Carboniferous Limestones
has given rise to the active ironworks of
Barrow-in-
Furness, now the largest town in the district.
Except in the towns of the outer border, the Lake District is very
thinly peopled; and from the economic point of view, the remarkable
beauty of its scenery, attracting numerous residents and tourists,
is the most valuable of its resources. The very heavy rainfall of
the district, which is the wettest in England, has led to the
utilization of Thirlmere as a reservoir for the
water supply of
Manchester, over 80 m.
distant.
Pennine Region
The Pennine Region, the centre of which forms the so-called
Pennine Chain, occupies the country from the Eden valley to the
North Sea in the north, and from the lower Tees, Yorkshire Ouse and
Trent, nearly to the Irish Sea, in the south. It includes the whole
of
Northumberland and
Durham, the West Riding of Yorkshire, most of
Lancashire and Derbyshire, the north of
Staffordshire and the west of
Nottinghamshire. The region is entirely
composed of Carboniferous rocks, the system which transcends all
others in the value of its economic minerals. The coal and
iron have made parts of the region
the busiest manufacturing districts, and the centres of densest
population, in the country, or even in the world. The whole region
may be looked upon as formed by an arch or anticline of
Carboniferous strata, the axis of which runs north and south; the
centre has been worn away by erosion, so that the Coal Measures
have been removed, and the underlying
Millstone Grit and Carboniferous
Limestone exposed to the influences which form scenery.

The northern part of the western side of the
anticline is broken off by a great
fault in the valley of the Eden, and the scarp
thus formed is rendered more abrupt by the presence of a
sheet of intrusive
basalt. Seen from the valley,
this straight line of lofty heights, culminating in Crossfell,
presents the nearest approach in England to the appearance of a
mountain range. In the north the Pennine region is joined to the
Southern Uplands of Scotland by the Cheviot Hills, a mass of
granite and Old Red Sandstone; and the northern part is largely
traversed by dykes of contemporary volcanic or intrusive rock. The
most striking of these dykes is the Great Whin
Sill, which crosses the country
from a short distance south of Durham almost to the source of the
Tees, near Crossfell. The elevated land is divided into three
masses by depressions, which furnish ready means of communication
between east and west. The South Tyne and Irthing valleys cut off
the Cheviots on the north from the Crossfell section, which is also
marked off on the south by the valleys of the Aire and Ribble from
the Kinder
Scout or Peak
section. The numerous streams of the region carry off the rainfall
down long valleys or dales to the east and the south, and by
shorter and steeper valleys to the west.

The agriculture of
the region is confined to the bottoms of the dales, and is of small
importance. Crossfell and the neighbouring hills are formed from
masses of Carboniferous Limestone, which received its popular name
of Mountain Limestone from this fact. Farther south, such summits
as High Seat, Whernside,
Bow Fell,
Penyghent and many others, all over 2000 ft. in height, are capped
by portions of the grits and sandstones, which rest upon the
limestone. The belt of Millstone Grit south of the Aire, lying
between the great coal-fields of the West Riding and Lancashire,
has a lower elevation, and forms grassy uplands and dales; but
farther south, the finest scenery of the whole region occurs in the
limestones of Derbyshire, in which the range terminates. The rugged
beauty of the south-running valleys, and especially of Dovedale, is
enhanced by the rich woods which still clothe the slopes. There are
remarkable features underground as well as on the surface, the
caverns and subterranean streams of Yorkshire and Derbyshire being
amongst the deepest that have yet been explored. Compared with the
rugged and picturesque scenery of the Lower Carboniferous rocks,
that of the Coal Measures is, as a rule, featureless and
monotonous. The coal-fields on the eastern side, from the Tyne
nearly to the Trent, are sharply marked off on the east by the
outcrop of Permian
dolomite or Magnesian limestone, which forms a
low
terrace dipping towards
the east under more recent rocks, and in many places giving rise to
an escarpment facing westward towards the gentle slope of the
Pennine dales. To the west and south the Coal Measures dip gently
under the New Red Sandstone, to reappear at several points through
the Triassic plain.

Such are
Leeds,
Bradford,
Sheffield,
Huddersfield and
Halifax on the great and densely peopled West
Riding coal-field, which lies on the eastern slope of the Pennines.
The iron ores of the Coal Measures have given rise to great
manufactures of
steel, from
cutlery to machinery and
armour-plates. High
on the barren
crest of the
Pennines, where the rocks yield no mineral wealth, except it be
medicinal waters,
Harrogate,
Buxton and
Matlock are types of health resorts, prosperous
from their pure
air and fine
scenery. Across the moors, on the western side of the anticline,
the vast and dense population of the Lancashire coal-field is
crowded in the manufacturing towns surrounding the great commercial
centre, Manchester, which itself stands on the edge of the Triassic
plain. Ashton,
Oldham,
Rochdale,
Bury,
Bolton
and
Wigan form a nearly
confluent semicircle of great towns, their prosperity founded on
the underlying coal and iron, maintained by imported cotton. The
Lancashire coal-field, and the portion of the bounding plain
between it and the seaport of Liverpool, contain a population
greater than that borne by any equal area in the country, the
county of London and its surroundings not excepted. In the
south-west of the Pennine region the coal-field of North
Staffordshire supports the group of small but active towns known
collectively from the staple of their trade as "
The Potteries." On
the north-east the great coal-field of Northumberland and Durham,
traversed midway by the Tyne, supports the manufactures of
Newcastle and its
satellite towns, and leaves
a great surplus for export from the Tyne ports.
Wales
The low island of Anglesey, which is built tip of the
fundamental Archaean rocks, is important as a
link in the main line of communication with
Ireland, because it is separated from the mainland by a channel
narrow enough to be bridged, and lies not far out of the straight
line joining London and
Dublin. The mainland of Wales rises into three
main highlands,
the
mountain groups of North, Mid and
South Wales, connected together by land
over moo ft. in elevation in most places, but separated by valleys
affording easy highways. The streams of the southern and western
slopes are short and many, flowing directly to the Bristol Channel
and the Irish Sea; but the no less numerous streams of the eastern
slopes gather themselves into three river systems, and reach the
sea as the Dee, the Severn and the Wye. The mountain group of
North Wales is the
largest and loftiest; its scenery resembles that of the Scottish
Highlands because of the juxtaposition of ancient Palaeozoic rocks
-
Cambrian
and Ordovician, often altered into
slate - and contemporaneous volcanic outbursts
and igneous intrusions. Here rises the peak of Snowdon (3560 ft.),
the culminating point of South Britain, and near it half a dozen
summits exceed 3000 ft., while
Cader Idris, farther south, though slightly
lower, presents a singularly imposing outline. The mild winter
climate has fringed the coast with seaside resorts, the rugged
heights attract tourists in summer, and the vast masses of slate
have given rise to the largest slate quarries in the world. The
heavy rainfall of the upper valleys unfits them for agriculture,
and the farms are poor. There are several lakes: that of
Bala being the largest, except the
old lake of
Vyrnwy,
reconstituted artificially to
store the rainfall for the water-supply of
Liverpool, 68 m. distant. The Vyrnwy is tributary to the Severn;
but north of it the streams gather into the Dee, and flow
eventually northward.
Mid Wales is built up, for the most
part, of Silurian or Ordovician rocks, practically free from
igneous intrusions except in the south-west.

The coast north of
Pembroke and
Merioneth
has been worked into the grand sweep of Cardigan Bay, its surface
carved into gently rounded hills, green with rich
grass,
which sweep downward into wide rounded valleys.
Plinlimmon (2468 ft.) is
the highest of the hills, and forms a sort of hydrographic centre
for the group, as from its eastern base the Severn and the Wye take
their rise - the former describing a wide
curve to east and south, the latter forming a
chord to the arc in its southward course. Mid Wales is mainly a
pastoral country, and very
thinly peopled. A group of artificial lakes, one of them exceeded
in area only by Windermere, has been formed in the valley of the
Elan, a tributary of the Wye, for the supply of water to
Birmingham. The group of heights of South Wales, running on the
whole from west to east, marks the outcrops of the Old Red
Sandstone and Carboniferous strata which lie within a vast syncline
of the Silurian rocks. The
Brecon Beacons of Old Red Sandstone are the
highest (2907 ft.), but the Black Mountain bears a number of
picturesque summits carved out of Millstone Grit and Carboniferous
Limestone, which rise frequently over 2000 ft. Throughout Hereford,
and in part of Monmouthshire, the Old Red Sandstone sinks to a
great undulating plain, traversed by the exquisite windings of the
Wye, and forming some of the richest pasture and
fruit lands of England. This plain formed an easy
passage from south to north, and since the time of the
Romans was a strategical line of
the greatest importance, a fact which has left its traces on the
present distribution of towns. Around the western and northern edge
of the Old Red Sandstone plain the underlying Silurian rocks (and
even the Cambrian and Archaean in places) have been bent up so that
their edges form hills of singular abruptness and beauty. Of these
are the Malvern Hills, east of Hereford, and in particular the
hills of Shropshire.
Wenlock
Edge, running from south-west to north-east, is an escarpment of
Silurian limestone, while the broad upland of Long Mynd, nearly
parallel to it on the north, is a mass of Archaean rock. The
Wrekin, the Caradoc and Cardington Hills are isolated outbursts of
preCambrian volcanic rocks. The outer rim of the Welsh area
contains a broken series of coal-fields, where patches of
Carboniferous strata come to the surface on the edge of the New Red
Sandstone plain. Such are the coal-fields of
Flint in the north, the Forest of Wyre and the
Forest of Dean,
close to the Severn, on the east. The great coal-field on the south
is a perfect example of a synclinal basin, the Millstone Grit and
Carboniferous Limestone which underlie the Coal Measures appearing
all
round the margin. This coal-field occupies practically the
whole of Glamorgan and part of
Monmouth, and its surface slopes from the
Black Mountain and Brecon Beacons to the sea as a gently inclined
plateau, scored by deep valleys draining south. Each chief valley
has a
railway connecting a
string of
mining villages, and
converging seaward to the busy ports of
Newport,
Cardiff and
Barry (a town created on a sandy island by the
excavation of a great
dock to form
an outlet for the mines). In the north of the field, where the
limestone crops out and supplies the necessary
flux,
Merthyr Tydfil has become great through
iron-smelting; and in the west
Swansea is the chief centre in the world for
copper and
tin smelting. The unity and ruggedness of the
highlands of Wales have proved sufficient to isolate the people
from those of the rest of South Britain, and to preserve a purely
Celtic race, still very largely of Celtic speech.
Cornwall and Devon
The peninsula of Cornwall and Devon may be looked upon as formed
from a synclinal trough of
Devonian rocks, which appear as
plateaus on the north and south, while the centre is occupied by
Lower Carboniferous strata at a lower level. The northern coast,
bordering the Bristol Channel, is steep, with picturesque cliffs
and deep bays or short valleys running into the high land, each
occupied by a little seaside town or village. The plateau
culminates in the barren heathy upland of Exmoor, which slopes
gently southward from a general elevation of 1600 ft., and is
almost without inhabitants. The Carboniferous rocks of the centre
form a soil which produces rich pasture under the heavy rainfall
and remarkably mild and equable temperature, forming a great
cattle-raising district.

The remarkable
features of the scenery of South Devon and Cornwall are due to a
narrow band of Archaean rock which appears in the south of the
peninsulas terminating in Lizard Head and Start Point, and to huge
masses of granite and other eruptive rocks which form a series of
great bosses and dykes. The largest granite
boss gives relief to the wild upland of Dartmoor,
culminating in High Willhays and Yes Tor. The clay resulting from
the weathering of the Dartmoor granite has formed marshes and
peat bogs, and the desolation of the
district has been emphasized by the establishment in its midst of a
great convict
prison, and in
its northern portion of a range for
artillery practice. The Tamar flows from
north to south on the Devonian plain, which lies between Dartmoor
on the east and the similar granitic boss of
Bodmin Moor (where Brown Willy rises to 1345
ft.) on the west. There are several smaller granite bosses, of
which the mass of Land's End is the most important. Most of the
Lizard peninsula, the only part of England stretching south of 50°
N., is a mass of

The plain usually forms a distinct
border along the landward margins of the uplands of more ancient
rock, though to the east of the Cornwall-Devon peninsula it is not
very clear, and its continuity in other places is broken by inliers
of the more ancient rocks, which everywhere underlie it. One such
outcrop of Carboniferous Limestone in the south forms the
Mendip Hills; another
of the Coal Measures increases the importance of Bristol, where it
stands at the head of navigation on the southern Avon. In the
north-west a tongue of the Red rocks forms the Eden valley,
separating the Lake District from the Pennine Chain, with Carlisle
as its central town.

level facilitate the construction of railways and canals, which
form a closer network over it than in other parts of the country.
The great junction of

This coalfield,
ministering to the multifarious
metal manufactures of Birmingham, constitutes the
centre of the Midlands. Smaller patches of the Coal Measures appear
near
Tamworth and Burton,
while deep shafts have been sunk in many places through the
overlying Triassic strata to the coal below, thus extending the
mining and manufacturing area beyond the actual outcrop of the Coal
Measures. A few small outcrops occur where still more ancient
strata have been raised to the surface, as, for instance, in
Charnwood Forest, where the Archaean rocks, with intrusions of
granite, create a patch of highland scenery in the very
heart of the English plain; and in
the Lickey Hills, near Birmingham, where the prominent features are
due to volcanic rocks of very ancient date.

The plain as a whole is fertile and undulating,
rich in woods and richer in pasture: the very heart of rural
England. Cattle-grazing is the chief
farm industry in the west, sheep and
horse-rearing in the east; the
prevalence of the prefix " Market " in the names of the rural towns
is noticeable in this respect. The manufacture of woollen and
leather goods is a natural
result of the raising of live stock; Leicester,
Coventry and Nottingham are manufacturing
towns of the region. The historic castles, the sites of ancient
battles, and the innumerable mansions of the wealthy, combine to
give to central England a certain aesthetic interest which the more
purely manufacturing districts of the west and north fail to
inspire. The midland plain curves northward between the outcrop of
the Dolomite on the west and the Oolitic heights on the east. It
sinks lowest where the estuary of the Humber gathers in its main
tributaries, and the greater part of the surface is covered with
recent alluvial deposits. The Trent runs north in the southern half
of this plain, the Ouse runs south through the northern half, which
is known as the Vale of
York,
lying low between the Pennine heights on the west and the Yorkshire
moors on the east. Where the plain reaches the sea, the soft rocks
are cut back into the estuary of the Tees, and there
Middlesbrough
stands at the base of the Moors. The quiet beauty of the rural
country in the south, where the barren
Bunter pebble-beds have never invited
agriculture, and where considerable vestiges of the old woodland
still remain in and near
Sherwood Forest, has attracted so many
seats of the landed
aristocracy as to
earn for that part the familiar name of "
the Dukeries." The
central position of York in the north made it the capital of Roman
Britain in ancient times, and an important railway junction in our
own.
Five natural regions may be distinguished in the Eastern
Division of England, by no means so sharply marked off as those of

Thus the Chalk appears
to run in four diverging fingers from the centre or
palm on Salisbury Plain, other formations lying
wedge-like between them. Various
lines of reasoning unite in proving that the Mesozoic rocks of the
south rest upon a mass of Palaeozoic rocks, which lies at no very
great depth beneath the surface of the anticlinal axis running from
the Bristol Channel to the Strait of Dover. The theoretical
conclusion has been confirmed by the discovery of Coal Measures,
with workable coal seams, at Dover at a depth of 2000 ft. below the
surface.
The Eastern Division is built up of parallel strata, the edges.
of the harder rocks forming escarpments, the sheets of clay forming
plains; and on this account similar features are repeated in each
of the successive geological formations. The rivers exhibit a
remarkably close relation to the geological structure, and thus
contrast with the rivers of the Western Division.

to the strike, and cutting through opposed
escarpments by deep valleys, and those following the line of strike
along a
bed of easily eroded rock. A
third class of streams, tributary to the second, flows down the
steep face of the escarpments. By the study of the
adjustment of these
rivers to their valleys, and of the relation of the valleys to the
general structure, Professor W. M. Davis has elaborated a theory of
river classification, and a scheme of the origin of surfacefeatures
which is attractive in its simplicity. The Thames is the one great
river of the division, rising on the Jurassic Belt, crossing the
Chalk country, and
finishing its course in the Tertiary London
Basin, towards which, in its prevailing west-to-east direction, it
draws its tributaries from north and south. The other rivers are
shorter, and flow either to the North Sea on the east, or to the
English Channel on the south. With the exception of the Humber,
they all rise and pursue their whole course within the limits of
the Eastern Division itself.
The Eastern Division is the richest part of England
agriculturally, it is the part most accessible to trade with the
Continent, and that least adapted for providing refuges for small
bodies of men in conflict with powerful invaders.

The present
population is so distributed as to show remarkable dependence on
the physical features. The chalk and limestone plateaus are usually
almost without inhabitants, and the villages of these districts
occur grouped together in long strings, either in drift-floored
valleys in the calcareous plateaus, or along the exposure of some
favoured stratum at their base.

Each group is made up of an
alternation of soft marls or clays and hard
limestones or sandstones. The low escarpments of the harder beds of
the Lias are the real, though often scarcely perceptible, boundary
between the Triassic plain and the Jurassic belt. They run along
the right
bank
of the Trent in its northward course to the Humber, and similarly
direct the course of the Avon southward to the Severn. The great
feature of the region is the long line of the Oolitic escarpment,
formed in different places by the edges of different beds of rock.
The escarpment runs north from
Portland Island on the English Channel, curves
north-eastward as the Cotteswold Hills, rising abruptly from the
Severn plain to heights of over Iwo ft.; it sinks to insignificance
in the Midland counties, is again clearly marked in
Lincolnshire, and
rises in the North Yorkshire moors to its maximum height of over
1500 ft. Steep towards the west, where it overlooks the low Lias
plain as the Oolitic escarpment, the land falls very gently in
slopes of Oxford Clay towards the Cretaceous escarpments on the
south and east. Throughout its whole extent it yields valuable
building-stone, and in the Yorkshire moors the great abundance of
iron ore has created the prosperity of Middlesbrough, on the plain
below. The Lias plain is rich grazing country, the Oxford Clay
forms valuable agricultural land, yielding heavy crops of
wheat.

Bath, Gloucester, Oxford, Northampton, Bedford,
Rugby, Lincoln and Scarborough are
amongst the chief. North of the gap in the low escarpment in which
the town of Lincoln centres, a close fringe of villages borders the
escarpment on the west; and throughout the belt the alternations of
clay and hard rock are reflected in the grouping of population.
The Chalk Country
The dominating surface-feature formed by the Cretaceous rocks is
the Chalk escarpment, the northern edge of the great sheet of chalk
that once spread continuously over the whole south-east. It appears
as a series of rounded hills of no great elevation, running in a
curve from the mouth of the
Axe to
Flamborough Head, roughly parallel with the Oolitic escarpment.
Successive portions of this line of heights are known as the
Western Downs, the White Horse Hills, the Chiltern Hills, the East
Anglian Ridge, the Lincolnshire Wolds and the Yorkshire Wolds. The
rivers from the gentle southern slopes of the Oolitic heights pass
by deep valleys through the Chalk escarpments, and flow on to the
Tertiary plains within. The typical scenery of the Chalk country is
unrelieved by small streams of running water; the hills rise into
rounded downs, often capped with fine clumps of
beech, and usually covered with thin
turf, affording pasture for sheep.
The chalk, when exposed on the surface, is an excellent foundation
for roads, and the lines of many of the Roman " streets " were
probably determined by this fact. The Chalk country extends over
part of Dorset, most of Wiltshire, a considerable portion of
Hampshire and
Oxfordshire, most of
Hertfordshire and
Cambridgeshire, the west of Norfolk and Suffolk, the east of
Lincolnshire, and the East Riding of Yorkshire.

Flamborough Head, the South Foreland, Beachy Head and the
Needles are examples of the fine scenery into which chalk weathers
where it fronts the sea, and these white cliffs gave to the island
its early name of
Albion. The
Chalk is everywhere very thinly peopled, except where it is thickly
covered with boulder clay, and so becomes fertile, or where it is
scored by drift-filled valleys, in which the small towns and
villages are dotted along the high roads. The thickest covering of
drift is found in the Holderness district of Yorkshire, where, from
the chalk cliffs of Flamborough Head to the sandspit of Spurn
Point, the whole coast is formed of boulderclay resting on chalk.
Of the few towns in the Chalk country, the interest of which is
largely historical or scholastic, Salisbury,
Winchester,
Marlborough and Cambridge are the most
distinguished.
Reading
flourishes from its position on the edge of the London Tertiary
Basin,
Croydon is a suburb
of London, and
Hull, though on the
Chalk, derives its importance from the Humber estuary, which cuts
through the Chalk and the Jurassic belts, to drain the Triassic
plain and the Pennine region. The narrow strip of Greensands
appearing from beneath the Chalk escarpment on its northern side is
crowded with small towns and villages on account of the plentiful
water-supply. The distinction between the low grounds of the
Jurassic belt and the Chalk country is not always very apparent on
the surface, and from the historic point of view it is important to
recognize the individuality of the Eastern plain which extends from
the Vale of York across the Humber and the Wash into Essex. The
Eastern plain thus includes a portion of the Triassic plain in the
north, a portion of the Jurassic and Chalk belts in the middle, and
a portion of the Tertiary plain of the London Basin in the
south.
The Fenland
The continuity of the belts of Chalk and of the Middle and Upper
Oolites in the Eastern Plain is broken by the shallow depression of
the Wash and the Fenland. The Fenland comprises a strip of Norfolk,
a considerable part of Cambridgeshire, and the Holland district of
Lincoln. Formerly a great inlet with vague borders of lagoons and
marshes, the Fenland has been reclaimed partly by natural
processes, partly by engineering works patiently continued for
centuries. The whole district is flat and low, for the most part
within 15 ft. of sea-level; the seaward edge in many places is
below the level of high
tide, and
is protected by dykes as in Holland, while straight canals and
ditches carry the sluggish drainage from the land. The soil is
composed for the most part of silt and peat. A few small elevations
of
gravel, or of underlying
formations, rise above the level of 25 ft.; these were in former
times islands, and now they form the sites of the infrequent
villages.
Boston and
King's Lynn are
memorials of the maritime importance of the Wash in the days of
small ships. The numerous ancient churches and the cathedrals of
Ely and
Peterborough bear witness to the share taken by religious
communities in the
reclamation and cultivation of the
land.
The Weald
The
dissection of
the great east and west anticline in the south-east of England has
resulted in a remarkable piece of country, occupying the east of
Hampshire and practically the whole of Sussex, Surrey and Kent, in
which each geological stratum produces its own type of scenery, and
exercises its own specific influence on every natural distribution.
The sheet of Chalk shows its cut edges in the escarpments facing
the centre of the Weald, and surrounding it in an
oval ring, the eastern end of which is broken by
the Strait of Dover, so that its completion must be sought in
France. From the crest of the escarpment, all round on south, west
and north, the dip-slope of the Chalk forms a gentle descent
outwards, the escarpment a very steep slope inwards. The cut edges
of the escarpment forming the Hog's Back and North Downs on the
north, and the South Downs on the south, meet the sea in the fine
promontories of the South Foreland and Beachy Head. The Downs are
almost without population, waterless and grass-covered, with
patches of beech wood. Their only important towns are on the coast,
e.g. Brighton,
Eastbourne, Dover,
Chatham,
or in the gaps where rivers from the centre pierce the Chalk ring,
as at
Guildford,
Rochester,
Canterbury,
Lewes and
Arundel. Within the Chalk ring, and at the base
of the steep escarpment, there is a low terrace of the Upper
Greensand, seldom so much
as a mile in width, but in most places crowded with villages
scarcely more than a mile apart, and ranged like beads on a
necklace. Within the Upper Greensand an equally narrow ring of
Gault is exposed, its stiff clay
forming level plains of grazing pasture, without villages, and with
few farmhouses even; and from beneath it the successivOeds of the
Lower Greensand rise towards the centre, forming a wider belt, and
reaching a considerable height before breaking off in a fine
escarpment, the crest of which is in several points higher than the
outer ring of Chalk. Leith Hill and Hindhead are parts of this edge
in the west, where the exposure is widest. Several towns have
originated in the gaps of the Lower Greensand escarpment which are
continuous with those through the Chalk: such are
Dorking,
Reigate,
Maidstone and
Ashford.
Folkestone and
Pevensey stand where the two ends of the
broken ring meet the sea. It is largely a region of
oak and
pine
trees, in contrast to the beech of the Chalk Downs. The Lower
Greensand escarpment looks inwards in its turn over the wide plain
of Weald Clay, along which the Medway flows in the north, and which
forms a fertile soil, well cultivated, and particularly rich in
hops and wheat. The primitive forests have been largely cleared,
the primitive marshes have all been drained, and now the Weald Clay
district is fairly well peopled and sprinkled with villages. From
the middle of this plain the core of Lower Cretaceous sandstones
known as the Hastings Beds emerges steeply, and reaches in the
centre an elevation of 796 ft. at Crowborough Beacon. It is on the
whole a region with few streams, and a considerable portion of the
ancient woodland still remains in Ashdown Forest. The greater part
of the Forest Ridges is almost without inhabitants. Towns are found
only round the edge bordering the Weald Clay, such as
Tonbridge,
Tunbridge Wells
and
Horsham; and along the
line where it is cut off by the sea,
e.g. Hastings and St
Leonards. The broad low tongue of Romney Marsh running out to
Dungeness is a product of shore-building by the Channel tides,
attached to the
Wealden
area, but not essentially part of it.
The London Basin
The London Basin occupies a triangular depression in the Chalk
which is filled up with clays and gravels of Tertiary and later
age. It extends from the eastern extremity of Wiltshire in a
widening triangle to the sea, which it meets along an irregular
line from Deal to
Cromer. It
thus occupies parts of Wiltshire, Hampshire, Surrey, Kent,
Berkshire, Hertfordshire, the whole of
Middlesex, the county of London and Essex,
and the eastern edge of Suffolk and Norfolk. The scenery is quiet
in its character, but the gravel hills are often prominent
features, as at
Harrow and in
the northern suburbs of London; the country is now mainly under
grass or occupied with market and nursery gardens, and many parts,
of which
Epping Forest is a
fine example, are still densely wooded, the oak being the
prevailing
tree. The coast is
everywhere low and deeply indented by ragged and shallow estuaries,
that of the Thames being the largest. Shallow lagoons formed along
the lower courses of the rivers of Norfolk have given to that part
of the country the name of the Broads, a district of low and nearly
level land. Apart from the huge area of urban and suburban London,
the London Basin has few large towns.
Norwich and
Ipswich,
Yarmouth, Lowestoft,
Harwich and
Colchester may be mentioned in the
north-eastern part, all depending for their prosperity on
agriculture or on the sea; and a fringe of summer resorts on the
low coast has arisen on account of the bracing climate. Reading and
Windsor lie in the western
portion, beyond the suburban sphere of London.

Communications
The configuration of England, while sufficiently pronounced to
allow of the division of the country into natural regions, is not
strongly enough marked to exercise any very great influence upon
lines of communication. The navigable rivers are all connected by
barge-canals, even across, the
Pennine Chain.

The main roads laid out as
arteries of
intercommunication by the Romans, suffered to fall into neglect,
and revived in the coaching days of the beginning of the 19th
century, fell into a second period of comparative neglect when the
railway system was completed; but they have recovered a very large
share of their old importance in consequence of the development of
motortraffic. Following the Roman roads, the high roads of the
Eastern Division very frequently run along the crests of ridges or
escarpments; but in the Western Division they are, as a rule,
forced by the more commanding relief of the country to keep to the
river valleys and cross the rougher districts through the dales and
passes. The railways themselves, radiating from the great centres
of population, and especially from London, are only in a few
instances much affected by configuration.

The Midland railway, running through the high and
rugged country between the two, was the last to be constructed. The
most notable
bridges over
navigable water affording continuous routes are those across Menai
Strait, the Tyne at Newcastle, the Severn at Severn Bridge and the
Manchester Ship Canal. It is more
usual to
tunnel under such
channels, and the numerous Thames tunnels, the Mersey tunnel
between Liverpool and Birkenhead, and the Severn tunnel, the
longest in the British Islands (42 m.), on the routes from London
to South Wales, and from Bristol to the north of England, are all
important. The Humber estuary is neither bridged nor tunnelled
below
Goole.
Density of Population
The present distribution of population over England and Wales
shows a dense concentration at all large seaports, in the
neighbourhood of London, and on the coal-fields where manufactures
are carried on. Agricultural areas are very thinly peopled; purely
pastoral districts can hardly be said to have any settled
population at all.

But, on the other hand, the broad clay plains of
all formations, the Cretaceous sandstones, and the Triassic plain,
are peopled more densely than any other district without mineral
wealth or sea trade.
Political Divisions
In the
partition of
England and Wales into counties, physical features play but a small
part. The forty ancient counties, remnants of various historical
groupings and partings, are occasionally bounded by rivers. Thus
the Thames divides counties along nearly its whole length, forming
the southern boundary of four and the northern boundary of three.
Essex and Suffolk, Suffolk and Norfolk, Cornwall and Devon, Durham
and Yorkshire, Lancashire and Cheshire, are all separated by
rivers, while rivers form some part of the boundaries of almost
every county. Still, it is noteworthy that the Severn and Trent
nowhere form continuous county boundaries. Watersheds are rarely
used as boundaries for any distance; but, although slightly
overlapping the
watershed on all sides, Yorkshire is very
nearly coincident with the basin of the Ouse. The boundaries of the
parishes, the fundamental units of English political geography, are
very often either rivers or watersheds, and they frequently show a
close relation to the strike of the geological strata. The
hundreds, or groups of parishes, necessarily share their
boundaries, and groups of hundreds are often aggregated to form
larger subdivisions of counties. A wider grouping according to
natural characteristics may now be recognized only in the cases of
Wales, East Anglia,
Wessex and
such less definite groups as the Home Counties around London or the
Midlands around Birmingham. Configuration is only one out of many
conditions modifying distributions, and its effects on England as a
whole appear to be suggestive rather than determinative.

III. Geology
For an area so small, England is peculiarly rich in geological
interest.

Almost every one of the principal geological
formations may be studied in England with comparative ease.
If we lay aside for the moment all the minor irregularities, we
find, upon examination of a geological map of England, two
structural features of outstanding importance. (I) The first is the
great anticline of the Pennine Hills which dominates the northern
half of England from the Scottish border to
Derby. Its central core of Lower Carboniferous
rock is broadly displayed towards the north, while southward it
contracts; on either side lie the younger rocks, the coal-fields,
the Permian strata and the Triassic formations, the last-named,
while sweeping round the southern extremity of the Carboniferous
axis of the uplift from its eastern and western flanks, spread out
in a large sheet over the midland counties. (2) The second striking
feature is the regular succession of Jurassic and Cretaceous rocks
which crop out in almost unbroken lines from the coast of
Dorsetshire, whither they appear to converge, to the Cleveland
Hills and the Yorkshire coast. Lying upon the Cretaceous rocks in
the S.E. of England are the two Tertiary basins of London and
Hampshire, separated by the dissected anticline of the Weald.

The older rocks in England occupy relatively small areas.
PreCambrian rocks are represented by the gneisses of
Primrose Hill and
schists of Rushton in
Shropshire; by the gneisses forming the core of the Malvern Hills,
and by the ancient volcanic and other rocks of the Wrekin,
Charnwood Forest and
Nuneaton. The slates of the Long Mynd, on the
Shropshire border, belong to this system. Cambrian strata appear in
Shropshire in the form of sandstones and quartzites; in the Malvern
Hills they are black shales, while in the >><< Lake
District they are represented by the Skiddaw slates. Next in point
of age comes the Ordovician system, which is well developed upon
the Shropshire border and in the Lake District. In the same two
areas we find the Silurian rocks, shales and limestones with grits
and flags. In N. and S. Devon are the Devonian limestones, grits
and shales; the corresponding Old Red Sandstone type of the system
(marls and sandstones) being exposed over a large part of
Herefordshire, stretching also into Shropshire and Monmouth. Next
in order of succession comes the Carboniferous system, with shales
and limestones in the lower members, grits, sandstones and shales -
the Millstone Grit series - in the middle of the system, followed
by the Coal Measures - a great series of shales with coal,
sandstones and ironstone at the top. This important system occupies
a large area in England. The limestones and shales are well exposed
in Derbyshire, Yorkshire, Northumberland, the Mendip Hills and at
Clifton. The Millstone Grit
series is prominent in Lancashire, Derbyshire, N. Staffordshire,
Yorkshire and in the Forest of
Dean. The Coal Measures rest upon the Millstone
Grits in most places, generally in synclinal basins. On the eastern
side of the Pennine range are the conterminous coal-fields of
Yorkshire, Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire, and the coal-field of
Durham and Northumberland; on the western side are the Whitehaven,
Burnley, S. Lancashire and
N. Staffordshire coal-fields. Farther south are the S.
Staffordshire, Warwickshire, Coalbrook Dale, Forest of Wyre, Forest
of Dean and Bristol and Somerset coal-fields; while much concealed
coal lies under younger formations in the south-east of England, as
has been proved at Dover. A large part of N. Devon is occupied by
the Culm shales, limestones and grits of Carboniferous age. The
principal development of Permian rocks is the narrow strip which
extends from Nottingham to
Tynemouth; here the Magnesian limestone is
the characteristic feature. On the other side of the Pennine Hills
we find the
Penrith
sandstone of the Vale of Eden and the Brockram beds of the Lake
District. Red sandstones and conglomerates of this age constitute
some of the red rocks which form the picturesque scenery about
Dawlish and
Teignmouth.

The outcrop of the Lias, mainly clay with thin limestones and
ironstones, runs in an almost continuous band across the country
from
Lyme Regis,
through Bath,
Cheltenham, near Leicester, and Lincoln to
Redcar in Yorkshire. Closely
following the same line are the alternating clays and limestones of
the Oolitic series. Next in order come the Greensands and Gault,
which lie at the base of the Chalk escarpment, between that
formation and the Oolites. The Chalk occupies all the remaining
portion of the south-east of England, save the Wealden area, and
extends northward as far as Flamborough in Yorkshire, forming the
Yorkshire Wolds, the Lincolnshire Wolds, the Chiltern Hills, the N.
and S. Downs, the Dorsetshire heights and Salisbury Plain. But in
the eastern and southern counties the Chalk is covered by younger
deposits of Tertiary age; the Pliocene Crags of Norfolk and
Suffolk, the Lower London
Tertiaries (London Clay,
Woolwich and Reading Beds,
&c.) of the London Basin comprising parts of Essex,
Hertfordshire, Middlesex, Bucks and Berks, and northern Kent.
Again, in the Hampshire Basin and Isle of Wight,
Eocene and
Oligocene formations rest upon the
Chalk.
When we attempt to decipher the physical history of the country
from the complicated record afforded by the stratigraphical
palimpsest, we are
checked at the outset by the dearth of information from being able
to picture the geographical condition in the older Palaeozoic
periods. All we can say is, that in those remote times what is now
England had no existence; its site was occupied by seas which were
tenanted by marine invertebrates, long since extinct. As for the
boundaries of these ancient seas, we can say nothing with
certainty, but it is of interest to note the evidence we possess of
still older land conditions, such as we have in the old rocks of
Shropshire, &c. In the Devonian period it is clear that an
elevatory movement had set in towards the north, which gave rise to
the formation of inland lakes and narrow estuaries in which the Old
Red Sandstone rocks were formed, while in the south of England lay
the sea with a vigorous
coral fauna. This condition led up to the
Carboniferous period, which began with fairly open sea over the
south and north of England, but in the centre there
rose an elevated land mass from which much of the
Millstone Grit was derived; other land lay towards the north.
Slowly this sea shallowed, giving rise to the alternating estuarine
marine and
freshwater
deposits of the Coal Measures. Continual elevation of the land
brought about the close of the coal-forming period and great
changes ensued.
Desert
conditions, with confined inland seas, marked the Permian and
Triassic periods.

Elevation gradually caused more ,nd to
appear in later Jurassic a.nd early Cretaceous times when a. ver
system, now entirely obliterated, drained into the Purbeck estuary
and Wealden lake; but a subsequent depression led to the wide
extension of the Chalk sea. By the beginning of the Eocene period
we find the sea limited to the S.E. of England, where the London
Clay, &c., were being laid down. It was not until quite late in
Tertiary time that these islands began to assume anything like
their present form. In the earlier part of the Pleistocene period,
England and Ireland were still incompletely severed, and the
combined activity of certain extinct rivers and the sea had not yet
cut through the land connexion with the continent.

Throughout the whole period of its geological history, volcanic
activity has found expression with varying degrees of intensity
along what is now the western side of the island, with the
exception that in the
Mesozoic era this activity was in
abeyance. We may note the
pre-Cambrian lavas and tuffs of the Wrekin district in Shropshire
and the somewhat later volcanic rocks of Charnwood; the
porphyrites, andesites, tuffs and rhyolites of the Borrowdale
volcanic centre, erupted in the Ordovician period, and the Silurian
granites of the same region. The volcanic outbursts which followed
became feebler in the Devonian and Carboniferous periods and ceased
with the Permian. When again the volcanic forces became active, it
was in the early Tertiary era; the evidences for this lie outside
the English border.
The principal directions of crust movement in England are: (I)
north and south, by which the Pennine folds and faults, and the
Malvern Hills have been produced; (2) east and west, by which the
folds of the Weald and the Mendip Hills, and those of Devonshire
have been formed. Another less important direction is N.W. and
S.E., as in the Charnwood folding.
Further details of the geology are given under the heads of the
counties. (J. A. H.)

(reduced to sea-level) is about 50° F., varying from something over
52° in the

The natural effect of the
heating of the air in summer
and the cooling of the air in winter by contact with the land is
largely masked in England on account of the strength of the

The Mersey
estuary, being partly sheltered by Ireland and North Wales, does
not serve as an inlet for modifying influences to the same extent
as the Bristol Channel: and as the wind entering by it blows
squarely against the slope of the Pennine Chain, it does not much
affect the climate of the midland plain.

The liability to east wind in
spring is one of the most marked features of the English climate,
the effect being naturally most felt on the east coast. The
southerly component in the wind is as a rule most marked in the
winter months, the westerly component predominating in summer. The
west end of a town receives the wind as it blows in fresh from the
country at all seasons, and consequently the west end of an English
town is with few exceptions the residential quarter, while
smoke-producing industries are
usually relegated to the east end.
Storms
On account of the great frequency of cyclonic disturbances
passing in from the Atlantic, the average conditions of wind over
the British Islands give no idea of the frequency of change in
direction and force. The chief paths of depressions are from
southwest to north-east across England; one track runs across the
south-east and eastern counties, and is that followed by a large
proportion of the summer and autumn storms, thereby perhaps helping
to explain the peculiar liability of the east of England to damage
from
hail accompanying
thunderstorms. A second track crosses central England, entering by
the Severn estuary and leaving by the Humber or the Wash; while a
third crosses the north of England from the neighbourhood of
Morecambe Bay to the Tyne.

In the Eastern Division, on the other hand, an annual
rainfall exceeding 30 in. is rare, and in the low ground about the
mouth of the Thames estuary and around the Wash the mean annual
rainfall is less than 25 in. In the Western Division and along the
south coast the driest month is usually April or May, while in the
Eastern Division it is February or March. The wettest month for
most parts of England is October, the most noticeable exception
being in East Anglia, where, on account of the frequency of summer
thunderstorms, July is the month in which most
rain falls, although October is not far behind. In
the Western Division there is a tendency for the annual maximum of
rainfall to occur later than October.

The
south coast occupies an intermediate position between the two as
regards climate. Attention has been called to the fact that the
bare rocks and steep gradients which are common in the Western
Division allow of the heavy rainfall running off the surface
rapidly, while the flat and often clayey lands of the Eastern
Division retain the scantier rainfall in the soil for a longer
time, so that for agricultural purposes the effect of the rainfall
is not very dissimilar throughout the country.
The distribution of sunshine is not yet fully investigated, but
it appears that the sunniest part is the extreme south coast, where
alone the total number of hours of bright sunshine reaches an
average of more than 1600 per annum. The north-east, including the
Pennine Region and the whole of Yorkshire, has less than 1300 hours
of sunshine, and a portion of North Wales is equally cloudy.

For the purpose of forecasting the weather, the meteorological

By the aid of these a certain
amount of work has been done in the subject, but it is still
largely an unworked field. The most satisfactory method of
characterizing English place-nomenclature is to deal with it

Roman influence is slight
but evenly distributed. English influence is all-pervading, though
in the northern and north-midland counties this influence has been
encroached upon by Scandinavian influence.
Norman influence is not confined to any
particular district.
Celtic
Though scattered notices of towns, cities and rivers in Britain
are to be found in various early Roman writers, it is not till the
time of
Ptolemy (2nd
century), who constructed a map of the island, and of the itinerary
of Antonine (beginning of the 3rd century) that we have much
information as to the cities and towns of Britain. We there learn
that the following place-names are ultimately of Celtic origin: -

Of river-names the vast
majority are Celtic (possible exceptions will be named later), and
the same is true of mountains and hills. The forests of Wyre, Elmet
and Sel (wood), and the districts of the Wrekin and the Peak are
probably Celtic.
Roman
We do not owe entire place-names to Roman influence, with the
exception of a few such as Chester,
Chester-le-Street (L.
strata
[via], a road) and Caistor, but Roman influence is to be found
in many names compounded of Celtic and Roman elements. The chief of
these is the element
chester - (L. castrum, a fort),
e.g. 'Eb- ' chester,
Silchester, Grantchester. Porchester is
entirely
Latin, but may not have
been formed till Saxon times. The form
caster is found in
the north and east, under Scandinavian influence,
e.g.
Tadcaster,
Lancaster;
and in the south-west and in the midlands we have a group of towns
with the form
cester: -
Bicester, Gloucester, Cirencester, Worcester,
Alcester, Leicester,
Towcester. Exeter, Wroxeter
and perhaps
Uttoxeter
show the suffix in slightly different form.

The interpretation of certain

The
results of these enumerations are published in separate volumes for
each county, in a volume of summary tables, and in a general
report. In the summaries England and Wales are treated as one, and
this treatment is followed here. The following table gives the
total numbers of the population of England and Wales at each
census, together with the absolute increase, and growth per cent,
during each decennial period: Allowing for a rate of increase
equivalent to that which obtained between 1891 and 1901, the
estimated population was 34,152,977 in 1905, and 36,169,150 in
1910.

Distribution.-A detailed map of the distribution of
population in England and Wales 1 shows certain well-defined areas
of very dense population. First for consideration, though not in
geographical extent, stands the area round London, in Middlesex,
Surrey, Kent, Essex and Hertfordshire. A great proportion of this
population is purely residential, that is to say, its working
members do not practise their professions at home or close to home,
but in the
metropolis,
travelling a considerable distance between their residences and
their offices. Just as London, in spite of its manifold industrial
interests, is hardly to be termed a manufacturing centre, so the
populous district surrounding it is not to be termed an industrial
district in the sense in which that term is applied to the
remaining regions of dense population which fall for consideration
here.

The great populous area which covers south Lancashire and the
West Riding of Yorkshire, and extends beyond them into Cheshire,
Derbyshire, Staffordshire and Nottinghamshire, is not in reality a
unit. The whole of the lowland in the south of Lancashire has
almost the appearance of one vast town, whereas among the hills of
the Pennine Chain the population crowds the valleys on either flank
and leaves in the high-lying centre some of the largest tracts of
practically uninhabited country in England. Moreover, the
industries in different parts of this area (for it is strictly an
industrial area) differ completely, as will be observed later,
though coal-mining is common to all.

their resources during the 19th century. Thus the preceding
counties' showed an increase, under normal conditions, exceeding
10% during the ten years 1891-1901, the percentage
of increase in 1871-1891 being given for
comparison.
It will be observed that three of the home counties occur in the
first four in the above list. It is interesting to note, in this
connexion, that the increase of population diminished steadily, in
the three decades under notice, within the area covered by the
administrative county of London, which is only the central part of
urban London (compare the population table of the great urban
districts, below). This was 1 7.44% in 1871-1881, 10 39 in
1881-1891, and 7.3 in 1891-1901. This illustrates the constant
tendency for the residential districts of a city to radiate away
from its centre, which appears, though in a modified degree, in the
case of all the great English cities.

During the period 1891-1901 five English and five Welsh counties
showed a decrease per cent in the population. The English counties
were: The Welsh counties were
Montgomeryshire,
Cardiganshire,
Flintshire, Merionethshire and Brecknockshire, the first-named
showing
Urban and the highest decrease, 5.08%, in
1891-1901. These counties are principally agricultural, and it is
in agricul districts elsewhere that the increase of population is

i ghtest. But in 1871-1881 a
decrease was found in the case of fifteen counties in all, and in
1881-1891 in the case of thirteen, whereas in 1891-1901, although
Radnorshire, which
returned a decrease previously, now returned an abnormal increase
owing to the temporary employment of workmen on the construction of
the Birmingham waterworks, the number fell to 10, and the average
percentage also fell. This suggested some tendency to return to a
state of
equilibrium
as between urban and rural districts.

Housing.-The
total area of England and Wales covered by urban districts (a term
which coincides pretty nearly with that of towns, which bears no
technical meaning in England) was 3,848,987 acres, and contained a
population of 25,058,355 in 1901, the increase in the decade
1891-1901 being 15.2%. The number of inhabited houses in the whole
country in 1901, namely 6,260,852, may be compared with the numbers
in 1801 (1,575,923) and 1851 (3,278,039); it gives an average of
5.2 persons to each house. This average has decreased with some
regularity from a
maximum of 5.75 in 1821, but there is no
certain evidence on which to affirm or deny that the average cubic
capacity of dwelling-houses has been maintained. The urban
population averaged 5.4 persons to a house, but varied greatly in
different towns. Thus, an average below 4.4 is quoted for Rochdale,
Halifax, Huddersfield, Yarmouth, Bradford and Stockport, while the
average for London was 7.93, and for Gateshead, Newcastle-uponTyne
and
South
Shields, in the northern industrial district of the Tyne, and
for
Devonport, the
average exceeded 8. The average of persons to a house in rural
districts was 4.6.

increase by births and decrease by deaths in each decade from
1851, and (2) the difference at the close of each decade (i.e. in
the later year mentioned in each line) between the population which
would have followed upon the natural increase unaffected by
migration and the population as actually enumerated. In the case of
(2) the actual population has always been exceeded by the estimate
based on natural increase, and this demonstrates an excess of

the

last named). It is lowest, naturally, in the mining districts, as
Glamorgan, Monmouth, Durham, Northumberland; but an exception may
be noted in the case of Cornwall, where a high proportion of
females is attributed to the emigration of miners consequent upon
the relative decrease in importance of the tin-mines. In 1901 the
proportion of females to males in urban districts was 1086 to woo,
and in rural districts 1011 to 1000.
The proportion of married adults (aged twenty and upwards) was
found to decrease from 1881 to 1901, being 630 per thousand

The five years 18 951899 exhibited a remarkable sequence
illustrative of this: - The marriage-rate declined, subsequently to
the year last quoted in this table, to 15.6 in 1903. (0. J. R. H.)
Religion. - In attempting to give a concise account of the
religious conditions of England we are confronted from the outset
with the absence of any trustworthy statistics. A religious census,
such as is customary in other countries, has not been taken since
1851; nor is it probable that such a census would be any true
indication of the actual religious beliefs of the population.

Nor is the test
of " sittings " provided by the various denominations, nor even the
number of their communicants, a trustworthy test of the relative
number of their adherents.

As for the test of communicancy, it is
untrustworthy because the insistence on communion as the
pledge of membership varies with
the different denominations and even with different sections of
opinion within those denominations. Any statistics of this nature,
then, however useful they may be as a general indication, must not
be treated as conclusive.
Whatever disputes there may be as to the relative strength of
the various churches and sects, there can be no questioning the
fact that the dominant religion in England is
Protestant Christianity. Protestantism, indeed, since
the
Act of
Settlement in 1689, has been of the essence of the
Constitution, the sovereign forfeiting his or her
crown ipso facto by acknowledging the
authority of the
pope, by
accepting " the Romish religion," or by marrying a
Roman
Catholic; and though of late years efforts have been made to
modify or to abrogate this provision, the fact that such efforts
have met with widespread opposition shows that it still represents
the general attitude of the British nation. Protestantism, however,
is a generic term which in England covers a great variety of
opinions, and a large number of rival religious organizations.

In law every subject of the state is also a member of the
Established Church, and can lay claim to its ministrations so long
as he or she obeys the
ecclesiastical law, which is also
the law of the state. No Englishman, whatever his opinions, can be
excommunicated without due process of law. The Church of England is
thus theoretically coextensive with the English nation, each unit
of which is legally assumed to belong to it unless proof be brought
to the contrary. To state the theory is, however, to risk giving an
entirely false impression of the facts. In practice the Church of
England is no longer regarded as coextensive with the state; nor is
nonconformity any longer, as it once was, an offence against the
law. Since the abolition of the
Test Acts and the emancipation of the
Catholics no Englishman has suffered any civil
disability owing to his
religion'; and the progress of
democracy has given to the great so-called "
Free Churches "
a political power that rivals that of the Established Church.

The ecclesiastical system is episcopal, the whole
of England (including for this purpose Wales) being divided into
two provinces, Canterbury and York, and 37 bishoprics (including
the primatial sees of Canterbury and York). These again are
subdivided into 14,080 parishes (1901), the smallest ecclesiastical
units, which are grouped for certain administrative purposes into
810 rural deaneries. The sovereign is by law the supreme governor
of the church, both in things spiritual and temporal, and he has
the right to nominate to vacant sees. In the case of sees of old
foundation this is done by means of the
conge d'elire
(q.v.), in that of others by
letters patent. 2 The
bishops hold their temporalities as baronies,
for which they do
homage in
the ancient form, and are spiritual peers of parliament. Only 26,
however, have the right to seats in the House of Lords, of whom
five - viz. the two archbishops and the bishops of London, Durham
and Winchester - always sit, the others taking their seats in order
of seniority of
consecration. Under the bishops the
affairs of the dioceses are managed by archdeacons (q.v.) and rural
deans (see
Archpriest
and
Dean). The
cathedral churches are
governed by chapters consisting of a dean, canons and prebendaries
(see
Cathedral). The
deaneries are in the gift of the crown, canonries and prebends
sometimes in that of the crown, sometimes in that of the bishops.
The parish clergy, with a few rare exceptions (when they are
elected by the ratepayers), are appointed by patronage.

The patronage of the remaining
benefices belongs in the main to the crown, the bishops and
cathedral chapters, the lord chancellor, and the universities of
Oxford and Cambridge.
In spite of the fact that the Church of England is collectively
one of the wealthiest in Christendom, a large proportion of the "
livings " are extremely poor. To understand this and other
anomalies it is necessary to bear in mind that the church is not,
like the established Protestant churches of Germany, an elaborately
organized state department, nor is it a single corporation with
power to regulate its internal polity. It is a conglomeration of
corporations.

Even
more extraordinary is the effect of the singular constitution of
the church on its discipline. An incumbent, once inducted, can only
be disturbed by complicated and extremely costly processes of law;
in effect, except in cases of gross 1 Certain great offices of
state are closed to Roman Catholics.
2 The actual selection of the bishops is in practice in the
hands of the
prime
minister for the time being. This formerly led to purely
political appointments; but it is usual now to select clergymen
approved by public opinion.

cheste Bogno 0 ' ?4 L le of R misconduct, he is only
checked-so far as ecclesiastical order is concerned-by his oath of
canonical obedience to the " godly " monitions of his
bishop; and, since these
monitions are difficult and costly to enforce, while their "
godliness " may be a matter of opinion, an incumbent is practically
himself the interpreter of the law as applied to the doctrine and
ritual of his particular
church. The result has been the development within the Established
Church of a most startling diversity of doctrine and ritual
practice, varying from what closely resembles that of the Church of
Rome to the broadest Liberalism
and the extremest evangelical Protestantism.

The following is a list of the archiepiscopal and episcopal sees
of England and Wales-the latter arranged in alphabetical
order,-with date of their establishment and amount of Modern
refoundation.
The following are
suffragan or assistant bishoprics (the names
of the dioceses to which each belongs being given in brackets):
Dover, Croydon (Canterbury),
Beverley, Hull, Sheffield (York),
Stepney,
Islington,
Kensington (London),

The number of " denominations " by whom buildings were certified
for worship up to 1895 was 293 (see list in
Whitaker's
Almanack, 1886, p. 252), but in many instances such
denominations " consisted of two or three congregations only, in
some cases of a single
congregation. The more important
nonconformist
churches are fully dealt with under their several headings. The
above table, however, based on that in the
Statesman's
Year-Book for 1908, and giving the comparative statistics of
the chief nonconformist churches, may be useful for purposes of
comparison. It may be prefaced by stating that, according to
returns made in 1905, the Church of England provided sitting
accommodation in parish and other churches for 7,177,144 people;
had an estimated number of 2, 0 53,455 communicants, 206,873
Sunday-school teachers, and 2,538,240 Sunday scholars. There were
14,029 incumbents (rectors, vicars, and perpetual curates), 7500
curates,
i.e. assistant clergy, and some 4000 clergy on
the non-active list.
Besides the bodies enumerated in the table there are other
churches concerning which similar statistics are lacking, but
which, in several cases, have large numbers of adherents. The
Unitarians are an important body with (1908) 350 ministers and 345
places of worship. Most numerous, probably, are the adherents of
the
Salvation
Army, which with a semi-military organization has in Great
Britain alone over 60,000 officers, and "
barracks,"
i.e. preaching stations, in almost every town.

The Latter Day Saints (Mormons) had (1908) 82 churches in Great
Britain.
Roman Catholicism in England has shown a tendency to advance,
especially among the upper and upper-middle classes. The published
lists of " converts " are, however, no safe index to actual
progress; for no equivalent statistics are available for " leakage
" in the opposite direction. The membership of the Roman
Catholic Church in England is
estimated at about 2,200,000. But though the ' In 1906.

growth of the church relatively to the population has not been
particularly startling, there can be no doubt that, since the
restoration of the Roman Catholic
hierarchy in 1851, its general political and
religious influence has enormously increased. A notable feature in
this has been the great development of monastic institutions, due
in large measure to the settlement in England of the congregations
expelled from France. The Roman Catholic Church in England is
organized in 15 dioceses, which are united in a single province
under the primacy of the
archbishop of
Westminster. In December 1907 there were
1736 Roman Catholic churches and stations, and the number of the
clergy was returned at 3524 (see
Roman Catholic Church) .

Finally it may be mentioned that a small number of Englishmen,
chiefly resident in Liverpool and London, have embraced
Islam; they have a
mosque at Liverpool. Various
foreign churches which have numbers of adherents settled in England
have also branch churches and organizations in the country, notably
the
Orthodox Eastern Church, - with
a considerable number of adherents in London, Liverpool and
Manchester, - the Lutheran, and the Armenian churches. (W. A.
P.)
VII. Communications
Roads. - In England and Wales the high-roads, or roads
on which wheeled vehicles can travel, are of two classes: (I) the
main roads, or great arteries along which the main vehicular
traffic of the country passes; and (2) ordinary highways, which are
by-roads serving only local areas.

The supersession of the stage
coach by the railway took a vast amount of
traffic away from the main roads, but their proper maintenance did
not materially suffer; and a larger accession of traffic took place
subsequently on the development of the
cycle and the motorvehicle.
The system of road-building by private enterprise, the
undertakers being rewarded by tolls levied from vehicles, persons
or animals using the roads, was established in England in 1663,
when an act of
Charles
II. authorized the taking of such tolls at " turnpikes " in
Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire. A century later, in 1767, the
authorization was extended over the whole kingdom by an act of
George
III. In its fulness the system lasted just sixty years, for the
first
breach in it was made by
an act of
George IV., in 18 2 7, by which
the chief turnpikes in London were abolished. Further acts followed
in the same direction, leading to the gradual extinction, by due
compensation of the
persons interested, of the old system, the maintenance of the roads
being vested in "
turnpike
trusts and
highway boards," empowered to
levy local rates. The last turnpike
trust ceased to exist on the 5th of
November 1895, and the final accounts in connexion with its debt
were closed in 1898-1899.
Toll-gates are now met with only at certain
bridges, where the right to levy tolls is statutory or by
prescription. By the
Local
Government Act of 1888 the duty of maintaining main roads was
imposed on the county councils, but these bodies were enabled to
make arrangements with the respective highway authorities for their
repair. Under the Local Government Act of 1894 the duties of all
the highway authorities were transferred to the rural district
councils on or before the 31st of March 1899.
It was not until the close of the 18th century, when the period
of road-building activity already indicated set in, that English
roads were redeemed from an extraordinarily bad condition. The
roads were until then, as a rule, merely tracks, deeply worn by
ages of traffic into the semblance of ditches, and, under adverse
weather conditions, impassable. Travellers also had the risk of
assault by robbers and
highwaymen. As early as 1285 a law provided for the cutting down of
trees and bushes on either side of highways, so as to deprive
lawless men of cover. Instances of legislation as regards the
upkeep of roads are recorded from time to time after this date, but
(to take a single illustration) even in the middle of the 18th
century the journey from the village, as it was then, of Paddington
to London by stage occupied from 22 to
3 hours. But from
1784 to 1792 upwards of 300 acts were passed dealing with the
construction of new roads and bridges.
Railways
The history and development of railways in England, their
birthplace, and in Ireland and Scotland, with illustrative
statistics, are considered under the heading UNITED KINGDOM. The
following list indicates the year of foundation, termini, chief
offices and geographical sphere of the chief railways of England
and Wales.
I. Railways with Termini in London. (a) Northern.
Great Northern (1846). -
Terminus and offices, King's Cross. Main line
- Peterborough, Grantham,
Newark, Doncaster; forming, with the
North-Eastern and North British lines, the " East Coast " route to
Scotland. Serving also the West Riding of Yorkshire, Lincolnshire,
Nottingham and other towns of the midlands, and Manchester (by
running powers over the Great Central metals). This company has so
extensive a system of running powers over other railways, and of
lines held jointly with other companies, that few of its more
important express trains from London complete their journeys
entirely on the company's own lines.
Midland (1844, an amalgamation of the former North
Midland, Midland Counties, Birmingham& Derby, and other lines).
- Terminus, St Pancras; offices, Derby. Main line - Bedford,
Leicester, Sheffield, Leeds and Carlisle, affording the " Midland "
route to Scotland. Serving also Nottingham, Derby, and the
principal towns of the midlands and West Riding, and Manchester.
West and North line from Bristol, Gloucester and Birmingham to
Leicester and Derby. Also an Irish section, the
Belfast and Northern Counties system being
acquired in 1903. Docks at
Heysham, Lancashire; and steamship services to
Belfast, &c.
London & North-Western (1846, an amalgamation of
the London & Birmingham, Grand Junction, and Manchester &
Birmingham lines). - Terminus and offices, Euston. Main line -
Rugby, Crewe,
Warrington, Preston, Carlisle; forming, with
the Caledonian system, the " West Coast " route to Scotland. Serves
also Manchester, Liverpool and all parts of the north-west, North
Wales, Birmingham and the neighbouring midland towns, and by
jointlines, the South Welsh coal-fields. Maintains docks at
Garston on the Mersey, a
steamship traffic with Dublin and
Greenore from
Holyhead, and, jointly with the Lancashire
& Yorkshire Company, a service to Belfast, &c., from
Fleetwood.
Great Central (1846; until 1897, when an extension to
London was undertaken, called the Manchester, Sheffield &
Lincolnshire). - Terminus, Marylebone; offices, Manchester. Main
line - Rugby, Nottingham, Leicester, Sheffield, Manchester. The
former main line runs from Manchester and Sheffield east to.
Retford, thence serving
Grimsby and Hull, with branches
to Lincoln, &c. The main line reached from London by joining
the line of the
Metropolitan railway near Aylesbury and
following it to Harrow. Subsequently an alternative route out of
London was constructed between Neasden and Northolt, where it joins
another line, of the Great Western railway, from
Acton, and continues as a line held jointly by
the two companies through Beaconsfield and High
Wycombe.

This line was opened for passenger traffic in
April 1906. The Great Central company owns docks at Grimsby.
(b) Eastern.
Great Eastern (1862). - Terminus and offices, Liverpool
Street. Serving Essex, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Norfolk. Joint-line
with Great Northern from March to Lincoln and Doncaster. Passenger
steamship services from Harwich to the Hook of Holland,
Antwerp,
Rotterdam, &c.
London, Tilbury £o' Southend (1852). - Terminus and
offices, Fenchurch Street. Serving places on the Essex shore of the
Thames estuary, terminating at

(c) Western.
Great Western (1835, London to Bristol). - Terminus and
offices, Paddington. Main line - Reading, Didcot,
Swindon, Bath, Bristol,
Taunton, Exeter, Plymouth,
Penzance. Numerous additional main lines -
Reading to
Newbury,
Weymouth and the west, a new
line opened in 1906 between Castle Cary and
Langport effecting a great reduction in
mileage between London and Exeter and places beyond; Didcot,
Oxford, Birmingham,
Shrewsbury, Chester with connexions
northward, and to North Wales; Oxford to Worcester, and Swindon to
Gloucester and the west of England; South Welsh system (through
route from London via

Milford. Steamship services to the
Channel Islands
from Weymouth to
Waterford, Ireland from Milford, and to
Rosslare, Ireland, from
Fishguard, the route last named being opened
in 1906. The line constructed jointly with the Great Central
company (as detailed in the description above) was extended in 1910
from Ashendon to Aynho, to form a short route to the great centres
north of Oxford.
London & South-Western (1839, incorporating the
London & Southampton railway of 1835). - Terminus and offices,
Waterloo. Main line -
Woking,
Basingstoke,

London, Chatham & Dover company, 1853). - Termini - Victoria,
Charing Cross,Holborn Viaduct,
Cannon Street. Offices, London Bridge Station.
Various lines chiefly in Kent. Steamship services between
Folkestone and
Boulogne,
Dover and
Calais, &c.

Inland
Navigation. - The English system of inland navigation is
confined principally to the following districts: South Lancashire,
the West Riding of Yorkshire, the Midlands, especially about
Birmingham, the Fen district and the Thames
i
basin (especially the lower part). All these districts are
interconnected. The condition of inland navigation, as a whole, is
not satisfactory. The Fossdyke in Lincolnshire, connecting the
river Trent at Torksey with the Witham near Lincoln, and now
belonging to the Great Northern and Great Eastern joint railways,
is usually indicated as the earliest extant canal in England,
inasmuch as it was constructed by the Romans for the purpose of
drainage or water-supply, and must have been used for navigation at
an
early period. But the history of
canal-building in England is usually dated from about 1760, and
from the construction, at the instance of
Francis, Duke of Bridgewater, of the
Bridgewater canal in South Lancashire, now belonging to the
Manchester Ship Canal Company. The activity in canal-building which
prevailed during the later years of the 18th century was, in a
measure, an earlier counterpart of the first period of railway
development, which, proceeding subsequently along systematized
lines not applied to canal-construction, and providing obvious
advantages in respect of speed, caused railways to withdraw much
traffic from canals. Some canals and river navigations have
consequently become
derelict, or are only maintained with
difficulty and in imperfect condition.

Lastly, the railway companies themselves
have acquired control of about 30% of the total mileage of canals
in England and Wales, and in many cases this has had a prejudicial
effect on the prosperity of canals.

From the Mersey the Manchester
Ship Canal runs to Manchester. The manufacturing districts of South
Lancashire and the West Riding of Yorkshire are traversed and
connected by several canals following transverse valleys of the
Pennine Chain. The main line of the Aire and
Calder navigation runs from Goole by
Castleford to Leeds,
whence the Leeds and Liverpool canal, running by Burnley and
Blackburn, completes the
connexion between the Humber and the Mersey. Other canals are
numerous, among which may be mentioned the Sheffield and South
Yorkshire, connecting Sheffield with the Trent. The Trent itself
affords an extensive navigation, from which, at Derwent mouth, the
Trent and Mersey Canal runs near Burton and Stafford, and through
the Potteries, to the Bridgewater Canal and so to the Mersey. This
canal is owned by the North Staffordshire railway company. The
river Weaver, a tributary of the Mersey, affords a waterway of
importance to the salt-producing towns of Cheshire. The system of
the Shropshire Union railways and canal company, which is connected
by
lease with the London &
North-Western railway company, carries considerable traffic,
especially in the neighbourhood of
Ellesmere Port. In the Black Country and
neighbourhood the numerous ramifications of the Birmingham Canal
navigations bear a large mineral traffic. This system is connected
with the rivers Severn and Trent and the canal system of the
country at large, and is controlled by the London &
NorthWestern company. The principal line of navigation from the
Thames northward to the midlands is that of the Grand Junction,
which runs from
Brentford, is connected through London with
the port of London by the Regent's Canal, and follows closely the
main line of the North-Western railway. It connects with the Oxford
Canal at Braunston in Northamptonshire, and through this with
canals to Birmingham and the midlands, and continues to Leicester.
Both the Severn up to
Stourport and the Thames up to Oxford have a
fair traffic, but the Thames and Severn Canal is not much used.
There is some traffic on the navigable drainage cuts and rivers of
the Fens, but beyond these, in a broad consideration of the
waterways of England from the point of view of their commercial
importance, it is unnecessary to go.
See H. R. De Salis, Bradshaw's Canals and Navigable Rivers
of England and Wales (London, 1904); Report of Royal
Commission on Canals (London, 1909).
Oversea Communications
The chief ports for continental passenger traffic are as
follows: Harwich to
Amsterdam, Antwerp,
Hamburg, Hook of Holland,
Rotterdam (Great Eastern railway); to
Copenhagen and
Esbjerg (Royal Danish
mail route).
Dover to Calais (South-Eastern & Chatham railway);
to
Ostend (Belgian Royal mail
steamers).
Folkestone to Boulogne (South Eastern & Chatham
railway). Newhaven to Dieppe (London, Brighton & South
Coast railway). Southampton to Cherbourg, Havre, St Malo
(South-Western railway).
The chief ports for trans-Atlantic traffic are Liverpool and
Southampton, and special trains are worked in connexion with the
steamers to and from London. The great development of harbour
accommodation at Dover early in the 10th century brought
trans-Atlantic traffic to this port also. Southampton and Liverpool
are the two greatest English ports for all oceanic passenger
traffic; but London has also a large traffic, both to European and
to foreign ports. The passenger traffic to the Norwegian ports,
always very heavy in summer, is carried on chiefly from Hull and
Newcastle.
VIII. Industries
A] griculture. - In the agricultural returns for Great
Britain, issued annually by the government, the area of England
(apart from Wales) has been divided into two sections, " arable "
and " grass," corresponding with a former division into "
corn counties " and " grazing
counties," except that Leicestershire is included not in the "
grass " but in the " arable " section. Most of the eastern part of
England is " arable," while the western and northern part is "
grass," the boundary between the sections being the western limit
of Hampshire, Berkshire, Oxfordshire, Warwickshire, Leicestershire,
Nottinghamshire, and of the East Riding of Yorkshire.
The division is thus as follows: Grass Counties. Arable
Counties. Yorkshire, East Riding. Lincolnshire.
Nottingham.
Rutland.
Huntingdonshire. Warwickshire. Leicestershire. Northamptonshire.
Cambridgeshire.
Norfolk.
Suffolk.
Berkshire.
Hampshire.
Hertfordshire.
Essex.
Middlesex.
Surrey.
Kent.
Sussex.
The average area under cultivation of all the counties is about
76 of the whole area. The counties having the greatest area under
cultivation (ranging up to about nine-tenths of the whole) may be
taken to be - Leicestershire, the East Riding of Yorkshire,
Lincolnshire, Huntingdonshire, Rutland, Northamptonshire,
Bedfordshire and Cambridgeshire. Those with the smallest
proportional cultivated area are Westmorland, Middlesex,
Northumberland, Surrey, Cumberland, the North and West
Ridings of Yorkshire,
Lancashire, Durham and Cornwall. Geographical considerations govern
these conditions to a very great extent; thus the counties first
indicated lie almost entirely within the area of the low-lying and
fertile Eastern Plain, while the smallest areas of cultivation are
found in the counties covering the Pennine hill-system, with its
high-lying uncultivated moors. In the case of Cornwall and
Cumberland the physical conditions are similar to these; but in
that of Middlesex and Surrey the existence of large urban areas
belonging or adjacent to London must be taken into account. These
also affect the proportion of cultivated areas in the other home
counties. The presence of a widespread urban population must also
be remembered in the case of Lancashire and the West Riding of
Yorkshire.
The geographical distribution of the principal crops, &c.,
may now be followed. The grain crops grown in England consist
almost
Distribu- exclusively of wheat,
barley and oats. Lincolnshire,
of
Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, Cambridgeshire and the East
tion
. Riding of Yorkshire are especially productive in all
crops these; the North and West Ridings of Yorkshire pro
duce a notable quantity of barley and oats; and the
oat-crops in the following counties deserve mention
- Devonshire, Hampshire, Lancashire, Cumberland, Cornwall, Cheshire
and Sussex.

In proportion
to their area, the counties specially productive of wheat are
Cambridgeshire, Huntingdonshire, Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire and
Essex; and of barley, Norfolk, Suffolk and the East Riding of
Yorkshire.

Kent is again pre-eminent in the growth of hops;
indeed this practice and that of fruit-growing give the scenery of
the county a strongly individual character.
Hop-growing extends from Kent into the neighbouring
parts of Sussex and Surrey, where, however, it is much less
important; it is also practised to a considerable degree in a group
of counties of the midlands and west - Herefordshire,
Worcestershire, Gloucestershire and Shropshire. Market-gardening is
carried on most extensively on suitable lands in the neighbourhood
of the great areas of urban population; thus the open land
remaining in Middlesex is largely devoted to this industry. From
the Channel and Scilly Islands, vegetables, especially seasonable
vegetables, and also flowers which, owing to the peculiar climatic
conditions of these islands, come early to perfection, are imported
to the London market. Considering the crops not hitherto specified,
it may be indicated that turnips and swedes form the chief green
crops in most districts; potatoes, mangels, beans and peas are also
commonly grown. Beyond the three chief grain crops, only a little
rye is grown. The cultivation of
flax is almost extinct, but it is practised in a
few districts, such as the East and West Ridings of 'Yorkshire.
The counties in which the greatest proportion of the land is
devoted to permanent pasture may be judged roughly from the list of
" ` grass counties " already given. Derbyshire, Leicester- Live
stock. shire, the midland counties generally, and
Somersetshire, have the highest proportion, and the counties of the
East Anglian seaboard the lowest. But with lands thus classified
heath, moor and hill pastures are not included; and the greatest
area of these are naturally found in the counties of the Pennines
and the Lake District, especially in Northumberland, Cumberland,
Westmorland and the North and West Ridings of Yorkshire. There is
also plenty of hillpasture in the south-western counties (from
Hampshire and Berkshire westward), especially in Devonshire,
Cornwall and Somersetshire, and also in Monmouthshire and along the
Welsh marches, on the Cotteswold Hills, &c. In all these
localities sheep are extensively reared, especially in
Northumberland, but on the other hand in Lincolnshire the numbers
of sheep are roughly equal to those in the northern county. Other
counties in which the numbers are especially large are Devonshire,
Kent, Cumberland and the North and West Ridings of Yorkshire.
Cattle are reared in great numbers in Lincolnshire, Lancashire and
the West Riding of Yorkshire, Devonshire, Somersetshire and
Cornwall; but the numbers of both cattle and sheep are in no
English county (save Middlesex) to be regarded as insignificant.
Pigs are bred most extensively in Suffolk, Norfolk and Lincolnshire
and in Somersetshire.
It is often asserted that the scenery of rural England is of its
kind unrivalled. Except in open lands like the Fens, the peculiarly
rich appearance of the country is due to the closely-divided
Wood- fields with their high, luxuriant
hedges, and
especially
lands. to the profuse growth of trees. There is
not, however, any large continuous forested tract.

The New Forest in Hampshire, the
Forest of Dean in Gloucestershire, and Epping Forest, which is
preserved as a public recreation-ground by the City of London, are
the most notable instances. The counties comprising the greatest
proportional amount of woodland fall into two distinct groups -
Hampshire, Surrey, Sussex and Kent, with Berkshire and
Buckinghamshire; Monmouth, Herefordshire and Gloucestershire.
Cambridgeshire, lying almost wholly within the area of the Fens,
has the smallest proportional area of woodland of any English
county.
The number of persons engaged in agriculture in England and
Wales was found by the census of 1901 to be 1,192,167; the total
showing a steady decrease (e.g. from 1,352,389 in 1881), which
is especially marked in the case of females. But the
decrease lies mainly in the number of agricultural labourers; the
number of farmers is not notably affected, and the increasing
substitution of machinery for manual labour must be taken into
consideration. The average size of holdings in England may be taken
approximately as 66 acres, the average in 1903 being 66.1, whereas
in 1895 it was 65.3.

Next in importance stand Lowestoft, Yarmouth and North Shields, Boston and Scarborough, and, among a large number of minor fishing stations, Hartlepool and Ramsgate. Great quantities of fish are also landed at the riverside market of Billingsgate in London, but the conditions here are exceptional, the landings being effected by carrier steamers, plying from certain of the fishing fleets, and not taking part in the actual process of fishing. On the south coast Newlyn ranks in the same category with Boston; at Plymouth considerable catches are landed; and Brixham ranks alongside the last ports named on the east coast. The chief fishing centres of the English Channel are thus seen to belong to the coast of Devonshire and Cornwall. On the west coast the Welsh port of Milford takes the first place, while Swansea and Cardiff have a considerable fishing industry, surpassed, however, by that of Fleetwood in Lancashire. Liverpool also ranks among the more important centres. .^ Enjoy your summer, the east coast is truly amazing year round.- : : : ZACHBRAFF : : : - Hi there. 18 January 2010 6:33 UTC www.zachbraff.com [Source type: FILTERED WITH BAYES]

In the ten years 1894-1903 this average was 6,985,588 cwt. for the east coast stations, 669,759 cwt. for those of the south coast, and 884,932 for those of the west (including the Welsh stations).
Distinctions may be drawn, as will be seen, between the nature
and methods of the fisheries on the various coasts, and the
relative prosperity of the industry from year. to year cannot be
considered as a whole. Thus in the period considered the recorded
maximum weight of fish landed at the east coast ports was 9,539, 11
4 cwt. in 1903 (the value being returned as £5,721,105) , whereas
on the south coast it was 736,599 cwt. in 1899, and on the west
1,117,164 cwt. in 1898. Considered as a whole, the individual fish,
by far the most important in the English fisheries, is the
herring, for which Yarmouth and
Lowestoft are the chief ports. The next in order are
haddock,
cod and
plaice, and the east coast fisheries return the
greatest bulk of these also. But whereas the south coast has the
advantage over the west in the herring and plaice fisheries, the
reverse is the case in the haddock and cod fisheries, haddock, in
particular, being landed in very small quantities at the south
coast ports.
Mackerel,
however, are landed principally at the southern ports, and the
pilchard is taken almost
solely off the south-western coast. A fish of special importance to
the west coast fisheries is the
hake.

Lobsters are landed in greatest number on the south coast.
The number of vessels of every sort employed in fishing was
returned in 1903 as 9721, and the number of persons employed as
41,539, of whom 34,071 were regular fishermen. The development of
the steam trawling-vessel is illustrated by the increase in numbers
of these vessels from 480 in 1893 to 1135 in 1903. They belong
chiefly to North Shields, Hull, Grimsby, Yarmouth and Lowestoft.
There are a considerable number on the west coast, but very few on
the south. These vessels have a wide range of operations, pursuing
their work as far as the
Faeroe Islands and
Iceland on the one hand, and the
Bay of Biscay and
the Portuguese coast on the other.
The English freshwater fisheries are not of great commercial
importance, nor, from the point of view of
sport, are the
salmon and
trout fisheries as a whole of equal importance
with
Fresh- those of Scotland, Ireland or Wales. The
English salmon
water and trout fisheries may be
geographically classified thus:

South-western, Taw, Torridge,
Camel, Tamar, Dart, Exe, Teign, &c.; (5)
Southern, Avon and Stour (Christchurch) and the Itchin and
other famous trout streams of Hampshire. The rivers of the midlands
and east are of little importance to salmon-fishers, though the
Trent carries a few, and in modern times attempts have been made to
rehabilitate the Thames as a salmon river. The trout-fishing in the
upper Thames and many of its tributaries (such as the Kennet, Colne
and Lea) is famous. But many of the midland, eastern and
south-eastern rivers, the Norfolk Broads, &c., are noted for
their coarse fish.
Mining
Although the conditions of mining have, naturally, undergone a
revolutionary development in comparatively modern times, yet some
indications of England's mineral wealth are found at various
periods of early history. The exploitation of tin in the south-west
is commonly referred back to the time of the Phoenician
sea-traders, and in the first half of the 13th century England
supplied Europe with this metal. At a later period tin and
lead were regarded as the English
minerals of highest commercial value; whereas to-day both, but
especially lead, have fallen far from this position. The Roman
working of lead and iron has been clearly traced in many districts,
as has that of salt in Cheshire. The subsequent development of the
iron industry is full of interest, as, while extending vastly, it
has entirely lapsed in certain districts.

Thus the industry centred
chiefly upon the Weald (Sussex and Kent), the Forest of Dean in
Gloucestershire, and the Birmingham district; but from the first
district named it afterwards wholly departed, following the
development of the coal-fields. These have, in some cases, a record
from a fairly early date; thus, an indication of the Northumberland
coal-supply occurs in a charter of 1234, and the Yorkshire
coal-field is first mentioned early in the following century. But
how little this source of wealth was developed appears from an
estimate of the total production of coal, which gives in 1700 only
2,612,000 tons, and, in 1800, io,080,000 tons, against the returned
total (for the United Kingdom) of 225,181,300 tons in 1900.
The chief minerals raised in England, as stated in the annual
home office report on
mines and quarries, appear in order of value, thus: coal, iron ore,
clay and shale, sandstone, limestone, igneous rocks, salt, tin ore.
Coal surpasses all the other minerals to such an extent that,
taking the year 1903 as a type, when the total value of the mineral
output was very nearly £70,000,000, that of coal is found to
approach £61,000,000.
The position of the various principal coal-fields has been
indicated in dealing with the physical geography of England, but
the grouping of the fields adopted in the official report may be
given here, together with an indication of the counties covered by
each, and the percentage of coal to the total bulk raised in each
county. These figures are furnished as demonstration of the
geographical distribution of the but are based on the returns for
1903.

The coal-fields on the eastern flank of the Pennines, therefore,
namely, the Northern and the Yorkshire, are seen to be by far the
most important in England. The carrying trade in coal is naturally
very extensive, and may be considered here. The principal ports for
the
shipping of coal for
export, set down in order of the amount shipped, also fall very
nearly into topographical groups, thus: - Newcastle, South Shields
and Blyth in the Northern District; Newport in Monmouthshire;
Sunderland in the Northern District, Hull, Grimsby and Goole on the
Humber, which forms the eastern outlet of the Yorkshire
coal-fields; Hartlepool, in the Northern District, and Liverpool.
The
tonnage annually shipped
ranges from about 42 millions of tons in the case of Newcastle to
some half a million in the case of Liverpool; but the export trade
of Cardiff in South Wales far surpasses that of any English port,
being more than three times that of Newcastle in 1903. The
coastwise carrying trade is also important, the bulk being shared
about equally by Sunderland, Newcastle, South Shields and Cardiff,
while Liverpool has also a large share. Of the whole amount of coal
received coastwise at English and Welsh ports (about 132 million
tons), London received considerably over one-half (nearly 8 million
tons in 1903). The railways having the heaviest coal traffic are
the North-Eastern, which monopolizes the traffic of Northumberland
and Durham; the Midland, commanding the Derbyshire, Yorkshire and
East Midland traffic, and some of the Welsh; the London & North
Western, whose principal sources are the Lancashire, Staffordshire
1 The figure 17.76 is the percentage for the whole of
Yorkshire.
2 The West Midlands (Shropshire, &c.) include the
coal-fields of Shrewsbury, Leebotwood,
Coalbrookdale, the Clee Hills and the
Forest of Wyre.
The Forest of Dean coal-field is in Gloucestershire.

the Report is classified with, the great coal-field of South Wales.
Ix. 14 a Coalfields. a general industry, [Manufacturing
Industries] and South Welsh districts; the Great Western and the
Taff Vale (South Welsh), with the Great Central, Lancashire &
Yorkshire and Great Northern systems.
In the face of railway competition, several of the canals
maintain a fair traffic in coal, for which they are eminently
suitable - the system of the Birmingham navigation, the Aire and
Calder navigation of Yorkshire, and the Leeds and Liverpool
navigation have the largest. shares in this trade.
The richest iron-
mining district in England
and in the United Kingdom is the Cleveland district of the North

There is also a considerable
working of brown iron ore at various points in Lincolnshire,
Northamptonshire and Leicestershire; with further workings of less
importance in Staffordshire and several other districts. The total
amount of ore raised in England is about 121 million tons, but it
is not so high, in some iron-fields, as formerly. Some of the
lesser deposits have been worked out, and even in the rich Furness
fields it has been found difficult to pursue the ore. The import of
ore (the bulk coming from Spain) has consequently increased, and
the ports where the principal import trade is carried on are those
which form the principal outlets of the iron-working districts of
Cleveland and Furness, namely Middlesbrough and
Barrow-in-Furness.
The geographical distribution of the remaining more important
English minerals may be passed in quicker review. Of the metals,
the production of copper is a lapsing industry, confined to
Cornwall. For the production of lead the principal counties are
Derbyshire, Durham and Stanhope, but the industry is not extensive,
and is confined to a few places in each county.
Quarrying for limestone,
clay and sandstone is general in most parts. For limestone the
principal localities are in Durham, Derbyshire and Yorkshire, while
for chalk-quarrying Kent is pre-eminent among a group of
southeastern counties, including Hampshire, Sussex and Surrey, with
Essex. Fireclay is largely raised from coal-mines, while, among
special clays, there is a considerable production of china and
potter's clays in Cornwall, Devonshire and Dorsetshire. As regards
igneous rocks, the Charnwood Forest quarries of Leicestershire, and
those of Cornwall, are particularly noted for their granite. Slate
is worked in Cornwall and Devon, and also in Lancashire and
Cumberland, where, in the Lake District, there are several large
quarries. Salt, obtained principally from brine but also as
rock-salt, is an important object of industry in Cheshire, the
output from that county and Staffordshire exceeding a million tons
annually. In Worcestershire, Durham and Yorkshire salt is also
produced from brine.
The total number of persons in any way occupied in connexion
with mines and quarries in England and Wales in 1901 was 805,185;
the number being found to increase rapidly, as from 528,474 in
1881. Coal-mines alone occupied 643,654, and to development in this
direction the total increase is chiefly due. The number of
ironstone and other mines decreased in the period noticed from
55,907 to 31,606.
Manufacturing Industries
T here are of course a great number of important industries
which have a general distribution throughout the country, being
more or less fully developed here or there in accordance with the
requirements of each locality.

It is not to be understood that there were no
manufacturing industries whatever. Rough cloth, for example, was
manufactured for home
consumption. But from Norman times the
introduction of foreign artisans, capable of establishing
industries which should produce goods fit for distant sale,
occupied the attention of successive rulers. Thus the
plantation of Flemish
weavers in East Anglia, especially at the towns of Worstead (to
which is attributed the derivation of the term worsted) and
Norwich, dates from the 12th century.

Then, when religious persecution drove many of the industrial
population of the west of Europe away from the homes of their
birth, they liberally repaid English hospitality by establishing
their own arts in the country, and teaching them to the
inhabitants. Thus religious liberty formed part of the foundation
of England's industrial greatness. Then came the material
agent, machinery propelled by
steam. The invention of the
steam engine, following quickly upon that
of the
carding machine, the
spinning jenny, and other
ingenious machinery employed in textile manufactures, gave an
extraordinary impulse to their development, and, with them, that of
kindred branches of industry. At the basis of all of them was
England's wealth in coal. The vast development of industries in
England during the igth century may be further correlated with
certain events in the general history of the time. Insular England
was not affected by the disturbing influences of the Napoleonic
period in any such degree as was continental Europe. Such
conditions carried on the work of British inventors in helping to
develop industries so strongly that manufacturers were able to take
full advantage of the opportunities offered by the
American
Civil War (in spite of the temporary disability it entailed
upon the cotton industry) and by the
Franco-German War. These wars tended
to paralyse industries in the countries affected, which were thus
forced to English markets to buy manufactured commodities. That
England, not possessing the raw material, became the seat of the
cotton
manufacture, was owing to the ingenuity of her inventors.

But though

The geographical analysis of the cotton industry in England is
simple. It belongs almost entirely to south Lancashire - to
Manchester and the great industrial towns in its neighbourhood. The
industry has extended into the adjacent parts of Cheshire, the West
Riding of Yorkshire and Derbyshire. The immediate neighbourhood of
a coal-supply influenced the geographical settlement of this
industry, like others; and the importance to the manufacture of a
moist climate, such as is found on the western slope of the
Pennines (in contradistinction to the eastern), must also be
considered. The excess of the demand of the factories over the
supply of raw material has become a remarkable feature of the
industry in modern times.
The distribution of the woollen industries peculiarly
illustrates the changes which have taken place since the early
establishment of manufacturing industries in England. It has been
seen how completely the industry has forsaken East Anglia.
Similarly, this industry was of early importance along the line of
the Cotteswold Hills, from Chipping Camden to Stroud and beyond, as
also in some towns of Devonshire and Cornwall, but though it
survives in the neighbourhood of Stroud, the importance of this
district is far surpassed by that of the West Riding of Yorkshire,
where the woollen industry stands pre-eminent among the many which,
as already indicated, have concentrated there. As the cotton
industry has in some degree extended from Lancashire into the West
Riding, so has the woollen from the West Riding into a few
Lancastrian towns, such as Rochdale. Among other textile industries
attaching to definite localities may be mentioned the
silk manufacture of eastern
Staffordshire and Cheshire, as at
Congleton and Macclesfield; and the
hosiery and
lace manufactures of Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire
and Leicestershire.
The metal-working industries also follow a geographical
distribution, mainly governed by the incidence of the coal-fields,
as well as by that of the chief districts for the production of
- iron-ore already indicated, such as the Cleveland and
Durham and the Furness districts. But the district most intimately
connected with every branch of this industry, from engineering and
the manufacture of tools, &c., to working in the
precious metals, is the "
Black Country " and Birmingham district of Staffordshire,
Warwickshire and Worcestershire.

There is, further, a
large engineering industry in the London district; and important
manufactures of agricultural implements are found at many towns of
East Anglia and in other agricultural localities. Birmingham and
Coventry may be specially mentioned as centres of the motor and
cycle building industry. The establishment of their engineering and
other workshops at certain centres by the great railway companies
has important bearing on the concentration of urban population. For
example, by this means the London & North Western and the Great
Western companies have created large towns in Crewe and Swindon
respectively.
Certain other. important industries may be localized. Thus, the
manufacture of china and pottery, although widespread, is primarily
identified with Staffordshire, where an area comprising Stoke and a
number of contiguous towns actually bears the name of the Potteries
(q.v.). Derby has a similar fame, while the manufacture of
glass, important in Leeds and
elsewhere in the West Riding of Yorkshire, and in the London
district, centres peculiarly upon a single town in South Lancashire
- St Helens. Finally, the bootmakers of Northamptonshire (at
Wellingborough,
Rushden, &c.), and the
strawplaiters of Bedfordshire (at
Luton and
Dunstable), deserve mention among localized
industrial communities.
Occupations of the People
The occupations of the people may be so considered as to afford
a conception of the relative extent of the industries already
noticed, and their importance in relation to other occupations. The
figures to be given are those of the census of 1 9 01, and embrace
males and females of so years of age and upwards. The textile
manufactures occupied a total of 994,668 persons, of which the
cotton industry occupied 529,131. A high proportion of female
labour is characteristic of each branch of this industry, the
number of females employed being about half as many again as that
of males (the proportion was 1.47 to I in 1901).

(774,291),
commerce, banking, &c. (530,685), domestic service, &c.
(304,195), professional occupations (311,618). The service of
government in every branch occupied 171,687. Female workers were
occupied to the number of 1,664,381 in domestic service generally.
Tailoring and the textile clothing industries and trade generally
occupied 602,881; teaching 172,873;

IX. Territorial
Divisions, &c.
For various administrative and other purposes England and Wales
have been divided, at different times from the Saxon period
onwards, into a series of divisions, whose boundaries have
England and Wales; Areas. County (ancient or
geographical).
been adjusted as each purpose demanded, without much attempt to
establish uniformity. Therefore, although the methods of local
government are detailed below (Section X.), and other
administrative arrangements are described under the various
headings dealing with each subject, it is desirable to give here,
for ease of reference and distinction, a
schedule of the various areas into which
England and Wales are divided. The areas here given, excepting the
Poor Law Union, are those
utilized in the Census Returns (see the General Report, 1901).
The ancient counties were superseded for most practical purposes
by the administrative counties created by the Local Government Act
of 1888. The ancient division, however, besides being maintained in
general speech and usage, forms the basis on which the system of
distribution of parliamentary representation now in force was
constructed. The Redistribution of Seats Act 1885 made a new
division of the country into county and borough constituencies.

Of the 205
borough constituencies, 184 return each one member, and 21 return
each two members, so that the total number of English borough
members is 226. Besides the county and borough members there are in
England five university members, namely, two for Oxford, two for
Cambridge and one for London. In Wales there are io borough
parliamentary areas, all of which, except Merthyr Tydfil and
Swansea town division, consist of groups of several contributory
boroughs. Each Welsh borough constituency returns one member,
except Merthyr Tydfil, which returns two, so that there are eleven
Welsh borough members.
The administrative counties, created in 1888, number 62, each
having a county council.

The various urban and rural districts are described below
(Section X.). The
Civil Parish is defined (Poor Law
Amendment Act 1866) as "a
place for which a separate poor-rate is or can be made," but the
parish council has local administrative functions beyond the
administration of the poor law.

Registration districts are generally, but not
invariably, coextensive with unions of the same name. These
districts are divided into sub-districts, within which the births
and deaths are registered by registrars appointed for that purpose.
Registration counties are groups of registration
districts, and their boundaries differ more or less from those both
of the ancient and the administrative counties. In England and
Wales there are eleven registration divisions, consisting of groups
of registration counties (See [Registration). (0. J. R.

For centuries before, from
the reign of
Edward
III., under a number of statutes and commissions, the
administrative work in the counties had been in the hands of the
country gentlemen and the clergy, acting as justices of the peace,
and sitting in petty sessions and
quarter sessions.

In 1782 Gilbert's Act introduced the grouping of
parishes for poor law purposes, and boards of guardians appointed
by the justices of the peace. The municipal boroughs (246 in
England and Wales in 1832) were governed by
mayor, aldermen, councillors and a close body of
burgesses or freemen, a narrow
oligarchy. Reform began with the Poor Law
Amendment Act of 1834, grouping the parishes into Unions, making
the boards of guardians mainly elective, and creating a central
poor law board in London. The Municipal Corporations Act followed
in 1835, giving all ratepayers the local
franchise. And as a result of the failure of
the
Public Health Board established in
1848, the royal commission of 1869-1871 led to the establishment in
1871 of the
Local Government Board as a
central supervising body. Meanwhile, the school boards resulting
from the Education Act of 1870 brought local government also into
the educational system; and the Public Health Act of 1875 put
further duties on the local authorities. By 1888 a new state of
chaos had grown up as the result of
the multiplication of bodies, and the new Redistribution Act of
1885 paved the way for a further reorganization of local matters by
the Local Government Act of 1888, followed by that of 1894. In
London, which required separate treatment, a similar process had
been going on. The Metropolis Management Act of 1855 established
(outside the city) two classes of parishes - the first class with
vestries of their own, the second class grouped under district
boards elected by the component vestries; and the Metropolitan
Board of Works
(abolished in 1888), elected by the vestries and the district
boards, was made the central authority.
In 1867 the Metropolitan Asylums Board took over its work from
the metropolitan boards of guardians. See further Charity And
Charities, Public Health, Education, Justice Of The Peace, Vestry,
&C.
The system of local government now existing in England (see also
the article
Local Government) may be said to have
been founded in 1888, when the Local Government Act of that year
was passed. Since then the entire system of the government of
districts and parishes has been reorganized with due regard to the
preceding legislation. The largest area of local government is the
county; next to that the sanitary district, urban or rural,
including under this head municipal boroughs, all of which are
urban districts. The parish is, speaking generally, the smallest
area, though, as will hereafter be seen, part of a parish may be a
separate area for certain purposes; and there may be united
districts or parishes for certain purposes. It will be convenient
to follow this order in the present article.

The Administrative County
The administrative county includes all places within its area,
with two important exceptions. The first of these consists of the
county borough. The second is the quarter sessions borough, which
forms part of the county for certain specified purposes only.

occupation of rated property within the borough or county,
residence during a qualifying period of twelve months within the
borough or county, and payment of rates for the qualifying
property.

The lists of
burgesses and county electors are prepared annually by the
overseers of each parish in the borough or county, and are revised
by the revising
barrister at courts holden by him for the
purpose in September or October of each year. When revised they are
sent to the town clerk of the borough, or to the clerk of the peace
of the county, as the case may be, by whom they are printed. The
lists are conclusive of the right to vote at an election, although
on election
petition
involving a
scrutiny the
vote of a person disqualified by law may be struck off,
notwithstanding the inclusion of his name in a list of voters.
The qualification of a county councillor is similar to that
required of a councillor in a municipal borough, with some
modifications.

Clerks in holy orders and ministers of religion are not
disqualified as they are for being borough councillors, but in
other respects the persons disqualified to be elected for a county

employment with, by or on behalf of the council. Women, other than
married women, are eligible.
County councillors are elected for a term of three years, and at
the end of that time they retire together. The ordinary day of
election is the 8th March, or some day between the 1st and 8th
March fixed by the council. Candidates are nominated in writing by
a nomination paper signed by a proposer and seconder, and
subscribed by eight other assenting county electors of the
division; and in the event of there being more valid nominations
than vacancies a
poll has to be
taken in the manner prescribed by the
Ballot Act 1872. Corrupt and illegal practices
at the election are forbidden by a statute passed in the year 1894,
which imposes heavy penalties and disqualifications for the
offences which it creates.

Payment on account of the
conveyance of electors to
or from the poll; payment for any committee room in excess of a
prescribed number; the incurring of expenses in and about the
election beyond a certain maximum; employing, for the conveyance of
electors to or from the poll,
hackney carriages or carriages kept for hire;
payments for bands, flags, cockades, &c.; employing for payment
persons at the election beyond the prescribed number;
printing and
publishing bills,
placards or posters which do not disclose the name and address of
the printer or publisher; using as committee rooms or for meetings
any licensed premises, or any premises where food or drink is
ordinarily sold for consumption on the premises, or any club
premises where intoxicating liquor is supplied to members. In the
event of an illegal practice, payment, employment or
hiring, committed or done
inadvertently, relief may be given by the High Court, or by an
election court, if the validity of the election is questioned on
petition; but unless such relief is given (and it will be observed
that it cannot be given for a
corrupt as distinguished
from an illegal practice), an infringement of the act may void the
election altogether. The validity of the election may be questioned
by election petition. Indeed, this is the only method when it is
sought to set aside the election on any of the usual grounds, such
as corrupt or illegal practices, or the disqualification of the
candidate at the date of election.

The petition is tried in open court at some place
within the county, the expenses of the court being provided in the
first instance by the Treasury, and repaid out of the county rates,
except in so far as the court may order them to be paid by either
of the parties. If a candidate is unseated a casual vacancy is
created which has to be filled by a new election. A county
councillor is required to accept office by making and subscribing a
declaration in the prescribed form that he will duly and faithfully
perform the duties of the office, and that he possesses the
necessary qualification.

If the councillor
does not make it within that time, he is liable to a fine the
amount of which, if not determined by bye-law of the council, is
£25 in the case of an
alderman or councillor, and £50 in the case of
the chairman. Exemption may, however, be claimed on the ground of
age, physical or mental incapacity, previous service, or payment of
the fine within five years, or on the ground that the claimant was
nominated without his consent.

In the case of
disqualification by absence, the same fines are payable as upon
non-acceptance of office, and the same liability arises on
resignation. Acting without making the declaration, or without
being qualified at the time of making the declaration, or after
ceasing to be qualified, or after becoming disqualified, involves
liability to a fine not exceeding X50, recoverable by action.
The councillors who have been elected come into office on the
8th March in the year of election. The first quarterly meeting of
Chairman, the newly-elected council is held on the 16th or
on such,
Ch other day within ten days after the 8th as the
county council may fix. The first business at that meeting is the
election of the chairman, whose office corresponds to that of the
mayor in a borough. He is elected for the ensuing year, and holds
office until his successor has accepted office. The chairman must
be a fit person, elected by the council from their own body or from
persons qualified to be councillors.

He is by virtue of
his office a
justice of the peace for the
county. Having elected the chairman, the meeting proceeds to the
election of aldermen, whose number is one-third of the number of
councillors, except in London, where the number is one-sixth. An
alderman must be a councillor or a person qualified to be a
councillor. If a councillor is elected he vacates his office of
councillor, and thus creates a casual vacancy in the council.

It will be observed,
429 therefore, that while a county councillor
holds office for three years, a county alderman holds office for
six. The council may also appoint a vice-chairman who holds office
during the term of office of the chairman; in London the council
have power to appoint a paid deputy chairman.
It may be convenient at this point to refer to the officers of
the county council. Of these, the chief are the clerk, the
treasurer, and the surveyor. Before 1888 the clerk of the peace
Officers. was appointed in a county by the
custos
rotulorum. He held office for life during good conduct,
and had power to act by a sufficient deputy. Under the act of 1888
existing clerks of the peace became clerks of the councils of their
counties, holding office by the same
tenure as formerly, except in the county of
London, where the offices were separated. Thereafter a new
appointment to the offices of clerk of the peace and clerk of the
county council was to be made by the standing joint-committee, at
whose pleasure he is to hold office. The same committee appoint the
deputyclerk, and fix the salaries of both officers. The clerk of
the peace was formerly paid by fees which were fixed by quarter
sessions, but he is now generally, if not in every case, paid by
salary, the fees received by him
being paid into the county fund. The county council may also employ
such other officers and servants as they may think necessary.
Subject to a few special provisions in the Local Government Act
of 1888, the business of the county council is regulated by the
provisions laid down in the Municipal Corporations Act
Business. 1882, with regard to borough councils.

Meetings
are convened by notices sent to members stating the time and place
of the meeting and the business to be transacted. The chairman, or
in his absence the vice-chairman, or in the absence of both an
alderman or councillor appointed by the meeting, presides. All
questions are determined by the votes of the majority of those
present and voting, and in case of equality of votes the chairman
has a casting vote. Minutes of the proceedings are taken, and if
signed by the chairman at the same or the next meeting of the
council are evidence of the proceedings.

Very full power is given to appoint
committees, which may be either general or special, and to them may
be delegated, with or without restrictions or conditions, any of
their powers or duties except that of raising money by rate or
loan. Power is also given to appoint
joint-committees with other county councils in matters in which the
two councils are jointly interested, but a joint-committee so
appointed must not be confounded with the standing joint-committee
of the county council and the quarter sessions, which is a distinct
statutory body and is elsewhere referred to. The
finance committee is also a body with distinct
duties.
In order to appreciate some of the points relating to the
finance of a county council, it is necessary to indicate the
relations between an administrative county and the boroughs which
are locally situated within it. The act of 1888
Relation
of created a new division of boroughs into three classes;
countyborou g
hs to of these the first is the
county borough. A certain number of boroughs which either had a
population of not less than 50,000, or were counties of themselves,
were made counties independent of the county council and free from
the payment of county rate. In such boroughs the borough council
have, in addition to their powers under the Municipal Corporations
Act 1882, all the powers of a county council under the Local
Government Act. They are independent of the county council, and
their only relation is that in some instances they pay a
contribution to the county,
e.g. for the cost of assizes
where there is no separate
assize for the borough. The boroughs thus
constituted county boroughs enumerated in the schedule to the Local
Government Act 1888 numbered sixty-one, but additional ones are
created from time to time.
The larger quarter sessions boroughs,
i.e. those which
had, according to the census of 1881, a population exceeding
10,000, form part of the county, and are subject to the control of
the county council, but only for certain special purposes. The
reason for this is that while in counties the powers and duties
under various acts were entrusted to the county authority, in
boroughs they were exercised by the borough councils. In the class
of boroughs now under consideration these powers and duties are
retained by the borough council; the county council exercise no
jurisdiction within the borough in respect of them, and the borough
is not rated in respect of them to the county rate. The acts
referred to include those relating to the diseases of animals,
destructive insects,
explosives, fish conservancy,
gas meters,
margarine,
police, reformatory and industrial schools,
riot (damages), sale of food and
drugs,
weights and measures. But for
certain purposes these boroughs are part of the county and rateable
to county rate,
e.g. main roads, cost of assizes and
sessions, and in certain cases pauper lunatics. The county
councillors elected for one of these boroughs may not vote on any
matter involving expenditure on account of which the borough is not
assessed to county rate.
The third class of boroughs comprises those which have a
separate court of quarter sessions, but had according to the census
of 1881 a population of less than 10,000. All such boroughs form
part of the county for the purposes of pauper lunatics, analysts,
reformatory and industrial schools, fish conservancy, explosives,
and, of course, the purposes for which the larger quarter sessions
boroughs also form part of the county, such as main roads, and are

This explanation is necessary in order
to appreciate what has now to be said about county finance. But
before leaving the consideration of the area of the county it may
be added that all liberties and franchises are now merged in the
county and subject to the jurisdiction of the county council.
The county council is a body corporate with power to hold lands.
Its revenues are derived from various sources which
Finance. will presently be mentioned, but all receipts
have to
F be carried to the county fund, either to the
general county account if applicable to general county purposes, or
to the special county account if applicable to special county
purposes. The county council may, with the consent of the Local
Government Board, borrow money on the security of the county fund
or any of its revenues, for consolidating the debts of the county;
purchasing land or buildings; any permanent work or other thing,
the cost of which ought to be spread over a term 'of years; making
advances in aid of the emigration or colonization of inhabitants of
the county; and any purpose for which quarter sessions or the
county council are authorized by any act to borrow. If, however,
the total debt of the council will, with the amount proposed to be
borrowed, exceed onetenth of the annual rateable value of the
property in the county, the money cannot be borrowed unless under a
provisional
order made by the Local Government Board and confirmed by
parliament. The period for which a loan is made is fixed by the
county council with the consent of the Local Government Board, but
may not exceed
thirty years, and the mode of
repayment may be by equal yearly or half-yearly instalments of
principal or of principal and interest combined, or by means of a
sinking fund invested and applied in accordance with the Local
Government Acts. The loans authorized may be raised by
debentures or
annuity certificates under
these acts, or by the issue of county stock, and in some cases by
mortgage.
The county council must appoint a finance committee for
regulating and controlling the finance of the county, and the
council cannot make any order for the payment of money out of the
county fund save on the recommendation of that committee. Moreover,
the order for payment of any sum must be made in pursuance of an
order of the council signed by three members of the finance
committee present at the meeting of the council, and countersigned
by the clerk. The order is directed to the county treasurer, by
whom authorized payments are then made.

The form in which
the accounts must be made up is prescribed by the Local Government
Board. The auditor is a district auditor appointed by the Local
Government Board under the District Auditors Act 1879, and in
respect of the
audit the council
is charged with a
stamp duty,
the amount of which depends on the total of the
expenditure-comprised in the financial statement.

A copy of the accounts has
to be deposited for public inspection for
seven
days before the audit. The auditor has the fullest powers of
investigation; he may require the production of any books or
papers, and he may require the attendance before him of any person
accountable. Any owner of property or ratepayer may attend the
audit and object to the accounts, and either on such objection or
on his own motion the auditor may disallow any payment and
surcharge the amount on the persons who made or authorized it.
Against any
allowance or
surcharge appeal lies to the High Court if the question involved is
one of law, or to the Local Government Board, who have jurisdiction
to remit a surcharge if, in the circumstances, it appears to them
to be fair and equitable to do so. It will be seen that this is
really an effective audit.
The sources of revenue of the council are the
exchequer contribution,
income from property and fees, and rates. Before 1888 large grants
of money had been made annually to local authorities in aid of
local
taxation.

local taxation fell on real property alone. By the act of 1888 it
was provided that for the future such annual grants should cease,
and that other payments should be made instead thereof. The
commissioners of Inland Revenue pay into the Bank of England, to an
account called " the local taxation account," the sums ascertained
to be the proceeds of the duties collected by them in each county
on what are called local taxation licences, which include licences
for the sale of intoxicating liquor, licences on dogs, guns,
establishment licences, &c. The amount so ascertained to have
been collected in each county is paid under direction of the Local
Government Board to the council of that county. The commissioners
of Inland Revenue also pay into the same account a sum equal to i
2% on the
net value of personal
property in respect of which
estate duty is paid. Under the Local
Taxation (Customs and Excise) Act 1890, certain duties imposed on
spirits and
beer (often referred to as "
whisky money ") are also to be paid to " the
local taxation account." The sums so paid in respect of the duties
last above mentioned, and in respect of the estate duty and spirits
and beer additional duties, are distributed among the several
counties in proportion to the share which the Local Government
Board certify to have been received by each county during the
financial year ending the 31st March 1888, out of the grants
theretofore made out of the exchequer in aid of local rates. The
payments so made out of " the local taxation account " to a county
council are paid to the county fund, and carried to a separate
account called " the Exchequer contribution account." The money
standing to the credit of this account is applied: (i.) in paying
any
costs incurred in respect
thereof or otherwise chargeable thereon; (ii.) in payment of the
sums required by the Local Government Act 1888 to be paid in
substitution for local grants; (iii.) in payment of the new grant
to be made by the county council in respect of the costs of union
officers; and (iv.) in repaying to " the general county account "
of the county fund the costs on account of general county purposes
for which the whole area of the county (including boroughs other
than county boroughs) is liable to be assessed to county
contribution. Elaborate provision is made for the distribution of
the surplus (if any), with a view to securing a due share being
paid to the quarter sessions boroughs.
The payments which the county council have to make in
substitution for the local grants formerly made out of Imperial
funds include payments for or towards the remuneration of the
teachers in poorlaw schools and public vaccinators; school fees
paid for children sent from a workhouse to a public elementary
school; half of the salaries of the medical officer of health and
the inspector of nuisances of district councils; the remuneration
of registrars for births and deaths; the maintenance of pauper
lunatics; half of the cost of the pay and clothing of the police of
the county, and of each borough maintaining a separate police
force. In addition to the grants above mentioned, the county
council is required to grant to the guardians of every poor-law
union wholly or partly in their county an annual sum for the costs
of the officers of the union and of district schools to which the
union contributes. Another source is the income of any property
belonging to the council, but the amount of this is usually small.
The third source of revenue consists of the fees received by the
different officers of the county councils or of the
joint-committee. For example, fees received by the clerk of the
peace, inspectors of weights and measures, and the like. These fees
are paid into the county fund, and carried either to " the general
county account " or, if they have been received in respect of some
matter for which part only of the county is assessed, then to the
special account to which the rates levied for that purpose are
carried. The remaining source of income of a county council is the
county rate, the manner of levying which is hereafter stated.

Government. Act 1888 the only form of countygovern 1' S' g
lent in England was that of the
justices in quarter sessions (q.v.).

The
principal object of the act of 1888 was to transfer these powers
and duties from the quarter sessions to the new representative body
- the county council; and it may be said that substantially the
whole of the administrative business of quarter sessions was thus
transferred.
The subjects of such transfer include (i.) the making, assessing
and levying of county, police, hundred and all rates, and the
application and expenditure thereof, and the making of orders for
the payment of sums payable out of any such rate, or out of the
county stock or county fund, and the preparation and revision of
the basis or standard for the county rate. With regard to the
county rate, few words of description may be sufficient here.

As a general rule the poorlaw valuations are
followed, but this is not universally the case, some county
councils adopting the
assessment to
income tax, schedule A, and others forming
an independent
valuation of their own. The
overseers of any parish aggrieved by the basis may appeal against
it to quarter sessions, and it is to be noticed that this appeal is
not interfered with, the transfer of the duties of justices
relating only to administrative and not to judicial business. When
a contribution is required from county rate, the county council
assess the amount payable by each parish according to the basis
previously made, and send their
precept to the guardians of the unions
comprising the several parishes in the county, the guardians in
their turn requiring the overseers of each parish to provide the
necessary quota of that parish out of the poor rate, and the sum
thus raised goes into the county fund. The police rate is made for
the purpose of defraying the expenses of the county police. It is
made on the same basis as the county rate, and is levied with it.
The hundred rate is seldom made, though in some counties it may be
made for purposes of main roads and bridges chargeable to the
hundred as distinguished from the county at large; (ii.) the
borrowing of money; (iii.) the passing of the accounts of, and the
discharge of the county treasurer; (iv.) shire halls, county halls,
assize courts, the judges'
lodgings, lock-up houses, court
houses, justices' rooms, police stations and county buildings,
works and property; (v.) the licensing under any general act of
houses and other places for
music or for dancing, and the granting of
licences under the Racecourses Licensing Act 1879; (vi.) the
provision, enlargement, maintenance and management and
visitation of, and other
dealing with, asylums for pauper lunatics; (vii.) the establishment
and maintenance of, and the contribution to, reformatory and
industrial schools; (viii.) bridges and roads repairable with
bridges, and any powers vested by the Highways and Locomotives
Amendment Act 1878 in the county authority.

The common-law liability to repair a bridge
extends also to the road or approaches for a distance of 300 ft. on
each side of the bridge. Of the powers vested in the county
authority under the Highway Act 1878, the most important are those
relating to main roads, which are specially noticed hereafter;
(ix.) the tables of fees to be taken by and the costs to be allowed
to any inspector,
analyst or
person holding any office in the county other than the clerk of the
peace and the clerks of the justices; (x.) the appointment, removal
and determination of salaries of the county treasurer, the county
surveyor, the public analysts, any officer under the Explosives Act
1875, and any officers whose remuneration is paid out of the county
rate, other than the clerk of the peace and the clerks of the
justices; (xi.) the salary of any
coroner whose salary is payable out of the
county rate, the fees, allowances and disbursements allowed to be
paid by any such coroner, and the division of the county into
coroners' districts and the assignments of such districts; (xii.)
the division of the county into polling districts for the purposes
of parliamentary elections, the appointment of the places of
election, the places of holding courts for the revision of the
lists of voters, and the costs of, and other matters to be done for
the registration of parliamentary voters; (xiii.) the execution as
local authority of the acts relating to contagious diseases of
animals, to destructive insects, to fish conservancy, to wild
birds, to weights and measures, and to gas meters, and of the Local
Stamp Act i 869; (xiv.) any matters arising under the Riot
(Damages) Act 1886. Under this act compensation is payable out of
the police rate to any person whose property has been injured,
stolen or destroyed by rioters; (xv.) the registration of rules of
scientific societies, the registration of charitable gifts, the
certifying and recording of places of religious worship, the
confirmation and
record of the rules of loan societies. These duties are imposed
under various statutes.
In addition to the business of quarter sessions thus
transferred, there was also transferred to the county council
certain business of the justices of the county out of
session, that is to say, in
petty or special sessions. This business consists of the licensing
of houses or places for the public performance of stage plays, and
the execution, as local authority, of the Explosives Act 1875.
Power was given by the act to the Local Government Board to
provide, by means of a provisional order, for transferring to
county councils any of the powers and duties of the various central
authorities which have been already referred to; but although such
an order was at one time prepared, it has never been confirmed, and
nothing has been done in that direction.

It was matter of considerable discussion before the passing
of the act whether the police should remain under the control of
the justices, or be transferred wholly to the control of the county
council. Eventually a middle course was taken. The powers, duties
and liabilities of the quarter sessions and justices out of session
with respect to the county police were vested in the quarter
sessions and the county council jointly, and are now exercised
through the standing joint-committee of the two bodies. That
committee consists of an equal number of members of the county
council and of justices appointed by the quarter sessions, the
number being arranged between the two bodies or fixed by the
secretary of
state.

The standing joint-committee have power to
divide their county into police districts, and, when required by
order in
council, are obliged to do so. In such a case, while the
general expenditure in respect of the entire police force is
defrayed by the county at large, the local expenditure,
i.e. the cost of pay, clothing and such other expenses as
the joint-committee may direct, is (defra ed at the cost of the
particular district for which it is incurred (see also
P01.1cE).
Among the powers and duties given to county councils by the
Local Government Act 1888, the first to be mentioned, following the
order in the act itself, is that of the appointment
ty of
county coroners. The duties of a coroner are limited to the holding
of inquiries into cases of death from causes suspected to be other
than natural, and to a few miscellaneous duties of comparatively
rare occurrence, such as the holding of inquiries relating to
treasure trove,
and acting instead of the
sheriff on inquiries under the Lands Clauses
Act, &c., when that officer is interested and thereby disabled
from holding such inquiries. (For the history of the office of
coroner, which is a very ancient one, see that title.) The county
council may appoint any fit person, not being a county alderman or
county councillor, to fill the office, and in the case of a county
divided into coroners' districts, may assign him a district.

It may be mentioned that though a coroner may have
a district assigned to him, he is nevertheless a coroner for the
entire county throughout which he has j urisdiction. It was
provided by the Highway Act 1878 that every road which was
disturnpiked after the 31st of December 1870 should be deemed to be
a main road, the expenses of the repair and maintenance of which
were to be contributed as to one-half thereof by the justices in
quarter sessions, then the county authority. By another section of
the same act it was provided that where any highway in a county was
a medium of communication between great towns, or a thoroughfare to
a railway station, or otherwise such that it ought to be declared a
main road, the county authority might declare it to be a main road,
and thereupon one-half the expense of its maintenance would fall
upon the county at large. Once a road became a main road it could
only cease to be such by order of the Local Government Board. As
already stated, the powers of the quarter sessions under the act of
1878 were transferred to the county council under the Local
Government Act of 1888, and that body alone has now power to
declare a road to be a main road.

Before the passing of the Local changes in the law
relating to the maintenance of main roads. It declared that
thereafter not only the half but the whole cost of maintenance
should be borne by the county. Provision is made for the control of
main roads in urban districts being retained by the urban district
council. In urban districts where such control has not been
claimed, and in rural districts, the county council may either
maintain the main roads themselves or allow or require the district
councils to do so. The county council must in any case make a
payment towards the costs incurred by the district council, and if
any difference arises as to the amount of it, it has to be settled
by the Local Government Board. In Lancashire the cost of main roads
falls upon the hundred, as distinguished from the county at large,
special provision being made to that effect. Special provision has
also been made for the highways in the Isle of Wight and in South
Wales, where the roads were formerly regulated by special acts, and
not by the ordinary Highway Acts.
The county council have the same power as a sanitary authority
to enforce the provisions of the Rivers Pollution Prevention Acts
in relation to so much of any stream as passes through
Revers or by any part of their county. Under these acts a
sanitary authority is authorized to take proceedings to restrain
interference with the due flow of a stream or the pollution of its
waters by throwing into it the solid refuse of any manufactory or
quarry, or any rubbish or
cinders, or any other waste or any putrid solid matter. They may
also take proceedings in respect of the pollution of a stream by
any solid or liquid sewage matter.

The
Local Government Board is further empowered by provisional order to
constitute a joint-committee representing all the administrative
counties through or by which a river passes, and confer on such
committee all or any of the powers of a sanitary authority under
the acts.
A county council has the same power of opposing bills in
parliament and of prosecuting or defending any legal proceedings
necessary
= for the promotion or protection of the
interests of the inhabitants of a county as are conferred on the
council
m legal of a municipal borough by the Borough
Funds Act 1872, with this difference, that in order to enable them
to oppose a bill in parliament at the cost of the county rate, it
is not necessary to obtain the consent of the owners and ratepayers
within the county. The power thus conferred is limited to opposing
bills. The council are not authorized to promote any bill, and
although they frequently do so, they incur the risk that if the
bill should not pass the members of the council will be surcharged
personally with the costs incurred if they attempt to charge them
to the county rate. Of course if the bill passes, it usually
contains a clause enabling the costs of promotion to be paid out of
the county rate. It must not be supposed, however, that the county
council have no power to institute or defend legal proceedings or
oppose bills save such as is expressly conferred upon them by the
Local Government Act.

for

Such by-laws will therefore be upheld, unless it is
clear that they are uncertain, repugnant to the general law of the
land, or manifestly unreasonable. It may be mentioned that, while
by-
laws relating to the good
government of the county have to be confirmed by the secretary of
state, those which relate to the suppression of nuisances have to
be confirmed by the Local Government Board. Such confirmation,
however, though necessary to enable the council to enforce them,
does not itself confer upon them any validity in point of law.

The only other powers and duties of a county council arising
under the Local Government Act itself which it is necessary to
notice are those relating to alterations of local areas.
Alters= It may be convenient here to state that certain
alterations of areas can only be effected through the med
i um
lo of the Local Government Board
after local inquiry. These cases include the alteration of the
boundary of any county or borough, the union of a county borough
with a county, the union of any counties or boroughs or the
division of any county, the making of a borough into a county
borough. In these cases the order of the Local Government Board is
provisional only, and must be confirmed by parliament.

The things referred to include the
alteration of the boundary of the district or parish; the division
or union thereof with any other district or districts, parish or
parishes; the conversion of a rural district or part thereof into
an urban district or vice versa. In these cases, after the local
inquiry above referred to has been held, the county council, being
satisfied that the proposal is desirable, may make an order for the
same accordingly. The order has to be submitted to the Local
Government Board, and that board must hold a local inquiry in order
to determine whether the order should be confirmed or not, if the
council of any district affected by it, or one-sixth of the total
number of electors in the district or parish to which it relates,
petition against it. The Local Government Board have power to
modify. the terms of the order whether it is petitioned against or
not, but if there is no petition, they are bound to confirm,
subject only to such modifications. Very large powers are conferred
upon county councils for the purpose of giving full effect to
orders made by them under these provisions.

Other
powers and duties of the county council under the act of 1894 will
be noticed hereafter.
Of the statutes affecting county councils passed subsequent to
1888 mention need only be made of the chief.
Previous to the Education Act 1902, county councils had certain
optional powers under the Technical Instruction Acts to supply or
aid the supply of technical or manual instruction.
.^ However, There is a woman that is 37 years old and Scrubs is her all time favorite show.- : : : ZACHBRAFF : : : - Hi there. 18 January 2010 6:33 UTC www.zachbraff.com [Source type: FILTERED WITH BAYES]
The county council
or the council of a county borough is now in every case the local
education authority, except that non-county boroughs with a
population of over 10,000, and urban districts with a population of
over 20,000, may be the local education authorities for elementary
education only, but they may relinquish their powers in favour of
the county council. For higher education county councils and county
boroughs are the sole education authorities, except that non-county
boroughs and urban councils are given a concurrent power of levying
a rate for higher education not exceeding id. in the £. Under the
act, an education committee must be established by all authorities.
The majority of the members of the committee are appointed by the
council, usually out of their own body, and the remainder are
appointed by the council on the nomination or recommendation of
other bodies. Some of the members of the committee must be women.
All matters relating to the exercise of the powers of the education
authority (except those of rating and borrowing) must be referred
to the committee, and before exercising any of their powers the
council must (except in cases of emergency) receive and consider
the report of the education committee with respect to the matter in
question. As to higher education the local education authority must
consider the educational needs of their area and take such steps as
seem to them desirable, after consultation with the Board of
Education, to supply or aid the supply of education other than
elementary, and to promote the general co-ordination of all forms
of education. For this purpose they are authorized to levy a rate
not exceeding 2d.
in the £, except with the consent of the Local Government Board.
They must also devote to the same purpose the sums received by them
in r espect of the
residue
of the English share of the local taxation (customs and excise)
duties already referred to. See further Education and TECHNICAL
Education.
Under the Midwives Act 1902, every council of a county or county
borough is the local supervising authority over midwives within its
Midwives. area. The duty of the local supervising
authority is to
Midw exercise general supervision over all
midwives practising within their area in accordance with rules laid
down in the act; to investigate charges of malpractices,
negligence or misconduct
on the part of a
midwife,
and if a prima facie case be established, to report it to the
Central Midwives Board; to suspend a midwife from practice if
necessary to prevent the spread of infection; to report to the
central board the name of any midwife convicted of an offence; once
a year (in January) to supply the central board with the names and
addresses of all midwives practising within their area and to keep
a roll of the names, accessible at all reasonable times for public
inspection; to report at once the death of any midwife or change in
name and address. The local supervising authority may delegate
their powers to a committee appointed by them, women being eligible
to serve on it. A county council may delegate its powers under the
act to a district council.
Part of the business transferred from quarter sessions to the
council was that which related to pauper lunatics, but the whole.
subject of lunacy was consolidated by an act of the year
Lunatics 1890, which again has been amended by a later
act. The councils of all administrative counties and county
boroughs and the councils of a few specified quarter sessions
boroughs, which before 1890 were independent areas for purposes of
the Lunacy Acts, are local authorities for the purposes of the
Lunacy Acts, and each of them is under an
obligation to provide
asylum accommodation for pauper lunatics. This
accommodation may be provided by one council or by a combination of
two or more, and such council or combination may provide one or
more asylums.

In the case of a combination
the expenses are defrayed by the several councils in such
proportion as they may agree upon, and the proportion may be fixed
with reference to either the accommodation required by each council
or the population of the district. A county borough may also,
instead of providing an asylum of its own, contract with the
visiting committee of any asylum to receive the pauper lunatics
from the borough. Private patients may be accommodated in the
asylums provided by a county council, and received upon terms fixed
by the visiting committee. The expenses of lunatic asylums are
defrayed in the following manner: The guardians from whose union a
lunatic is sent have to pay a fixed weekly sum, which may not
exceed 14s. a week.
.^ Keep up the good work and of course, keep sharing your ideas.- : : : ZACHBRAFF : : : - Hi there. 18 January 2010 6:33 UTC www.zachbraff.com [Source type: FILTERED WITH BAYES]
In addition to the payments by guardians, there is a
contribution of 4s. a week from " the exchequer contribution
account " already mentioned, and the remaining expenses are
defrayed out of the county rate.
Under the
Allotments Acts 1887 to
1907, it is the duty of a county council to ascertain the extent to
which there is a demand for
Allot allotments in the urban
districts and parishes in the county,. or would be a demand if
suitable land were available, and
meats the extent to
which it is reasonably practicable, having regard to the provisions
of the acts, to satisfy any such demand, and to co-operate with
authorities, associations or persons best qualified to assist, and
to take such steps as may be necessary. The powers of the Local
Government Board under the Allotments Acts were transferred by the
act of 1907 to the Board of Agriculture and Fisheries, and by the
same act the powers and duties of rural district councils were
transferred to parish councils. The county council under these acts
has compulsory powers of purchase or hire if they are unable to
acquire land by agreement and on reasonable terms. If an objection
is made to an order for compulsory purchase or hire, the order will
not be confirmed by the Board of Agriculture until after a local
inquiry has been held. If the Board of Agriculture is satisfied,
after holding a local inquiry, that a county council have failed to
fulfil their obligations as to allotments, the board may transfer
all and any of the powers of the county council to the Small
Holdings Commissioners.
By the Small Holdings and Allotments Act 1907, Small Holdings
Commissioners are appointed by the Board of Agriculture to
ascertain the extent of the demand for small holdings, and confer
Small . with county councils as to how best to provide
them.
holdings Local authorities are required to furnish
information and give assistance to the commissioners, who report to
the board. If the board, after considering the report, consider it
desirable, they require the county council concerned to prepare a
scheme for the provision of small holdings; if the county council
decline to prepare a scheme, the board may direct the commissioners
to do so. A county council may also prepare a scheme on its own
initiative.

A county council may
delegate, by arrangement, to the council of any borough or urban
district in the county their powers in respect of the act. A small
holding is defined by the act as one which exceeds I acre, but must
not exceed 50 acres or £50 annual value. Every county council must
establish a small holdings and allotments committee, to which must
be referred all matters relating to the exercise and performance by
the council of their powers and duties as to small holdings and
allotments.
Under the Isolation Hospitals Acts 1893 and 1901, a county
council may provide for the establishment of isolation hospitals
for the reception of patients suffering from infectious diseases on
Hospi t a l
s the application of any local
authority within the county, or on the report of the medical
officer of the county that hospital accommodation is necessary and has
not been provided, or it may take over hospitals already provided
by a local authority. The council by their order constitute a
hospital district and form a committee for its administration. The
committee have power to purchase land, erect a hospital, provide
all necessary appliances, and generally administer a hospital for
the purposes above mentioned.The powers and duties of a county council under the Local
Government Act 1894 are numerous and varied, and the chief of them
are mentioned hereafter in connexion with parish councils. The
county council may establish a parish council in a parish which has
a population of less than 300, and may group small parishes under a
common parish council; in every case they fix the number of members
of the parish council. They may authorize the borrowing of money by
a parish council, and they may lend money to a parish council.

They may make orders for the custody and
preservation of public books, writings, papers and documents
belonging to a parish. They may divide a parish into wards for
purposes of elections or of parish meetings. They may authorize
district councils to aid persons in maintaining rights of common.
They may, on the petition of a district council, transfer to
themselves the powers of a district council who have refused or
failed to take the necessary proceedings to assert public rights of
way or protect roadside wastes. They may dispense with the
disqualification of a parish or district councillor arising only by
reason of his being a shareholder in a water company or similar
company contracting with the council, and, as has above been
stated, they have large powers of altering the boundaries of
parishes.
Among the powers and duties of quarter sessions transferred to
county councils were those arising under the acts relating
Diseases of to contagious diseases of animals. These acts
were 'a' lm se consolidated and amended by a statute of
1894, and the county council remain the local authority for the
execution of that act in counties.

Sufficient has
been said to indicate that the legislature from time to time
recognizes the important position of the county council as an
administrative body, and is continually extending its
functions.

not enumerated in the schedule to the act of 1835 continued to
exist after that year, but by an act of 1883 all of these, save
such as should obtain charters before 1886, were abolished, the
result being that all boroughs are now subject to the act of 1882.

The governing body in a borough is the
council elected by the burgesses.
The qualification of a burgess has been incidentally mentioned
in connexion with that of a county elector, and need not be further
noticed. A borough councillor must be qualified in the same manner
as a county councillor, and he is disqualified in the same way,
with this addition, that a peer or ownership voter is not qualified
as such, and that a person is disqualified for being a borough
councillor if he is in holy orders or is the regular minister of a
Dissenting congregation. Women, other than married women, are
eligible.

The ordinary day of election is the
1st of November. At an election for the whole borough the returning
officer is the mayor; at a ward election he is an alderman assigned
for that purpose by the council. The nomination and election of
candidates and the procedure at the election are the same as have
already been described in the case of the election of county
councillors. The law as to corrupt and illegal practices at the
election, is also similar, and the election may be questioned by
petition in exactly the same way. A borough councillor must, within
five days after notice of his election, make a declaration of
acceptance of office under a
penalty, in the case of an alderman or
councillor of £50, and in the case of a mayor of £loo, or such
other sums as the council may by by-law determine. A councillor may
be disqualified in the same way as a county councillor, by
bankruptcy or composition
with creditors, or continuous absence from the borough (except in
case of illness). In short it may be said that as the provisions
relating to the election of borough councillors were merely
extended to county councillors by the Local Government Act of 1888
with a few modifications, these provisions, as already stated when
dealing with county councils, apply generally to the election of
borough councillors. After the annual election on the 1st of
November the first quarterly meeting of the council is held on the
9th, and at that meeting the mayor and aldermen are elected. The
election of the mayor and aldermen is again the same as has already
been described in connexion with the election of the chair-
Officers . man and aldermen of a county council. The
officers of a borough council are the town clerk and the treasurer,
but the council have power to appoint such other officers as they
think necessary.

This is really the only way in which the validity of a payment by a
borough council can be questioned, for, as will be seen hereafter,
the audit in the borough is not an effective one. The borough fund
is derived, in the first instance, from the property of the
corporation. If the income from such property is insufficient for
the purposes to which it is applicable, as usually, is the case, it
has to be supplemented by a borough rate, which may be a separate
rate made by the council or may be levied through the overseers as
part of the poor rate' by means of a precept addressed to them.

These auditors are three in number - two of them elected
annually by the burgesses. An elective auditor must be qualified to
be a councillor, but may not be a member of the council. The third
auditor is appointed by the mayor and is called the mayor's
auditor. The auditors so appointed are charged with the duty of
auditing the accounts of the treasurer, but they have no power of
disallowance or surcharge, and their audit is therefore quite
ineffective.

however, the borough has Justices;

the
borough has quarter sessions or a separate commission or not, the
mayor, by virtue of his office, is a justice for the borough, and
continues to be such justice during the year next after he ceases
to be mayor. He takes precedence over all justices in and for the
borough, and is entitled to take the chair at all meetings at which
he is present by virtue of his office of mayor. A separate
commission of the peace may be granted to a borough on the petition
of the council. A borough justice is required to take the oaths of
allegiance and the judicial oaths before acting; he must while
acting reside in or within 7 m. of the borough, or occupy a house,
warehouse or other property in the borough; but he need not be a
burgess nor have the qualification by estate required of a county
justice. Where the borough has a separate commission, the borough
justices have power to appoint a clerk, who is now paid by salary,
the fees and costs pertaining to his office being paid into the
borough fund, out of which his salary is paid. The council may by
petition obtain the appointment of a stipendiary magistrate for the
borough. The crown may also on petition of the council grant a
separate court of quarter sessions for the borough, and in that
event a recorder has to be appointed by the crown. He must be a
barrister of not less than five years' standing, and he holds
office during good behaviour; he receives a yearly salary. The
recorder sits as sole judge of

sessions also involves the appointment by the council of a clerk of
the peace for the borough. It should be added that the grant of a
court of quarter sessions to any borough other than a county
borough after the passing of the Local Government Act 1888, does
not affect the powers, duties or liabilities of the county council
as regards that borough, nor exempt the parishes in the borough
from being assessed to county rate for any purposes to which such
parishes were previously liable to be assessed.When a borough is a county of itself the council appoint a
sheriff on the 9th of November in every year. And where the borough
has a separate court of quarter sessions the council appoint
Sheriff, a fit and proper person, not an alderman or
councillor, to coroner. be the borough coroner, who holds
office during good behaviour. If the borough has a civil court the
recorder, if there is one, is judge of it. If there is no recorder,
the judge of the court is an officer of the borough appointed under
the charter.
The provisions of the Municipal Corporations Act 1882 relate
chiefly to the constitution of the municipal corporation. It does
not itself confer many powers or impose many duties
Power
to upon the council as a body. It does, however, enable a
acquire municipal corporation to acquire corporate land
and
land. buildings, the buildings including a town hall,
council house, justices' room, police stations and cells, sessions

may borrow money for the erection of such buildings; they may
acquire and hold land in
mortmain by virtue of their charter, or with
the consent of the Local Government Board. Corporate land cannot be
alienated without the consent of the same board. The council may
convert corporate land, with the approval of the Local Government
Board, into sites for workmen's dwellings.
Another duty imposed upon a borough council by the act of 1882
is the maintenance of bridges within the borough which are
not repairable by the county in which the borough is

It will be observed that these
by-laws are of two classes. The former do not come into force until
the expiration of forty days after a copy of them has been sent to
the secretary of state, during which forty days the sovereign in
council may disallow any by-law or part thereof. The latter require
to be confirmed by the Local Government Board.
Under the act of 1882 every municipal borough might have its own
separate police force. As has already been stated when dealing with
county councils, boroughs having a population of less than io,000
according to the census of 1881 can no longer have a separate
police force.

of less

Police
police is separately treated in the
Encyclopaedia Britan- nica, and it
is not necessary to supplement what is there stated. Under an act
of 1893 the borough police may, in addition to their ordinary
duties, be employed to discharge the duties of a fire
brigade.
The powers and duties of a borough council in the Municipal
Corporations Act do not arise or exist to any great extent under
that act. In a few cases, those namely of county boroughs, the
councils have the powers of county
the district councils.

But in every case the council of
the borough have the powers and duties of an urban district
council, and, except where they derive their authority from local
acts, it may be said that their principal powers and duties consist
of those which they exercise or perform as an urban council. These
will now be considered.
Before the year 1848 there was not outside the municipal
boroughs any system of district government in England. It is true
that in some populous places which were not corporate boroughs
local acts of parliament had been passed appointing improvement
commissioners for the government of these places. In many boroughs
similar acts had been obtained conferring various powers relating
to sanitary matters, streets and highways and the like. But there
was no general system, nor was there, save by special legislation,
any means by which sanitary districts could be constituted. In the
year 1848 the first Public Health Act was passed. It provided for
the formation of local boards in boroughs and populous places, such
places outside boroughs being termed local government districts. In
boroughs the town council were generally appointed the local board
for purposes of the act. It was not, however, until 1872 that a
general system of sanitary districts was adopted. By the Public
Health Act of that year the whole country was mapped out into urban
and rural sanitary districts, and that system has been maintained
until the present time, with some important changes introduced by
the Public Health Acts 1875 to 1907, and the Local Government Act
1894.
The whole of England and Wales is divided into districts, which
are either urban or rural. Urban districts include boroughs and
places which were formerly under the jurisdiction of local boards
or improvement commissioners. The power to constitute new urban
districts is now conferred upon county councils, as already stated.

There were, indeed, highway boards and
burial boards which had powers for special
purposes, but district authority in the sense in which it is now
understood there was none. Before the year 1894 the rural district
consisted of the area of the poor-law union, exclusive of any urban
district which might be within it, and the guardians of the poor
were the rural sanitary authority. Since 1894 this has been
changed. By the Local Government Act of that year the guardians
ceased to be the rural sanitary authority.

be the same body as the guardians and are now wholly distinct. A

The electors both in urban and rural districts are the
body called the parochial electors. These are practically the
persons whose names appear in the parliamentary
register or in the local government register
as being entitled to vote at elections for members of parliament or
county or parish councillors as the case may be. The election takes
place subject to rules made by the Local Government Board, these
rules being largely founded upon adaptations of the Municipal
Corporations Act 1882. The election is by ballot on the same lines
as those prescribed for a municipal election, and the Corrupt
Practices Act, the provisions of which have been referred to when
dealing with county councils, applies to the elections of district
councils. The provisions with reference to election petitions, the
grounds upon which they may be presented and the procedure upon
them, are the same in every respect as have already been mentioned
when dealing with county councils.

This is done by means of a
provisional order made by the board and confirmed by parliament. In
such a united district the governing body is a joint board
constituted in manner provided by the order, and it has under the

It may also be

Port port sanitary authority. It is
also constituted by order of the Local Government Board, and it may

of districts abutting upon a port. In this case also the authority
consists of such members and is elected in such manner as the order
determines, and it has such of the powers of an ordinary district
council as the order may confer upon it. These relate for the most
part to nuisances and infectious disease, having special reference
to ships. It has been thought convenient to deal here with district
councils, whether urban or rural, together, but the powers of the
former are much more extensive than those of the latter, and

The necessity for this provision arises because

Questions are
determined by the majority present and voting, the chairman having
the casting vote. Minutes are taken and, if signed at the meeting
or the next ensuing meeting, are made evidence. The officers of the
council consist of a clerk, a medical officer, a surveyor. one or
more inspectors of nuisances and a treasurer. Of these all but the
medical officer of health and inspectors of nuisances hold office
at pleasure and receive such remuneration as the council may
determine. If the urban district is a borough, the town clerk and
borough treasurer fulfil the same office for purposes of the Public
Health Acts. The salaries of the medical officer of health and
inspectors of nuisances are, as to one moiety thereof, paid out of
" the exchequer contribution account " by the county council, if
they are appointed in accordance with the requirements of the Local
Government Board as to qualification, appointment, duties, salary
and tenure of office.

It may be mentioned here that by an act,
called the Public Bodies' Corrupt Practices Act 1889, severe
penalties are imposed alike upon members and officers of public
bodies for corruption in office.
A district council may appoint committees consisting wholly or
partly of members of their own body for the exercise of any powers
Gom- which in their opinion can properly
be exercised by such committees. Such committees do not, however,
m hold office beyond the next annual meeting of the
council, and their acts must be submitted to the council for their
approval. If they are appointed for any purposes of the Public
Health or Highway Acts, the council may authorize them to institute
any proceedings or do any act which the council might have
instituted or done, other than the raising of any loan or the
making of any rate or contract. A rural district council may
delegate their entire powers in any parish to a parochial
committee. Such committee may consist wholly of members of their
own body or of members of the parish council, or partly of members
of both. Such a committee may be subject to any regulations and
restrictions imposed upon it by the rural district council.
In dealing with the powers and duties of district councils it
will be convenient to treat of these first as they arise under the
Public Health Acts, and afterwards as they arise under other
Public statutes. In so far as such powers and duties are
common to urban and rural district councils alike they will be
referred to as appertaining to district councils. When reference is
made to any power or duty of an urban council it is to be
understood that the rural council have no such power or duty unless
conferred or imposed upon them by order of the Local Government
Board. And it must be borne in mind that in a borough the borough
council is the urban district council.
The district council are required to cause to be made such
sewers as may be necessary for effectually draining their district.
This duty may be enforced by the Local Government Board on
complaint made to them that the council have failed in performing
it, and in the case of a rural district by the county council on
complaint of the parish council.

The owner or occupier of any premises is entitled

An attempt was made to remedy
this state of things by the Public Health Amendment Act 1890,
section 19, but the remedy so provided was very partial, and may be
said to be confined to the case where two or more houses belonging
to different owners are drained into a common drain laid under
private land, and ultimately discharging into a sewer in a road or
street.
The district council are charged with the duty of enforcing the
provision of proper sanitary accommodation (water-closets, privies,
ashpits, &c.) for all dwelling-houses, new or old, and
Sanitary for factories, and the maintenance of such
conveniences
accommo- i n proper
condition. The urban council have power to
s e for provide
and maintain and make provision for the regu-
houses. lation of urinals, water-closets,
earth-closets, privies, ashpits and other similar conveniences for
public accommodation. In the event of a complaint being made to a
district council that any drain, closet, privy, ashpit or cesspool
is a
nuisance or injurious
to health, the council may empower their surveyor to enter and
examine the premises, and, if the complaint is well founded, they
may require the owner to do the necessary works. The district
council are not
R bound to undertake the removal of house
refuse from premises, or the cleansing of closets, privies, ashpits
and .
cesspools. They may, however, undertake these duties, and, if
the Local Government Board require, they must do so. An urban
council and a rural council, if invested with the requisite power
by the Local Government Board, may, and when required by order of
that board must, provide for the proper cleansing of streets, and
may also provide for the proper watering of streets. When they have
undertaken, or are required to perform these duties, a penalty is
imposed upon them for neglect. If they do not undertake these
duties, they may make by-laws imposing on the occupiers of premises
the duty of cleansing footways and pavements, the removal of house
refuse, and the cleansing of earth-closets, privies, ashpits and
cesspools; and an urban council may also make by-laws for the
prevention of nuisances arising from
snow, filth,
dust, ashes and rubbish, and for the prevention of
the keeping of animals on any premises so as to be injurious to
health. The keeping of
swine in
a dwelling-house, or so as to be a nuisance, is made an offence
punishable by a penalty in an urban district, as also is the
suffering of any waste or stagnant water to remain in any cellar,
or within any dwelling-house after notice, and the allowing of the
contents of any closet, privy or cesspool to overflow or soak
therefrom. Provision is also made for enforcing the removal of
accumulations of manure, dung, soil or filth from any premises in
an urban district, and for the periodical removal of manure or
other refuse from mews, stables or other premises.
With regard to water-supply, district councils have extensive
powers. They may provide their district or any part of it with a
supply of water proper and sufficient for public and
Water - private purposes, and for this
purpose they may con-
supply. struct and maintain
waterworks, dig wells, take on lease or hire any waterworks,
purchase waterworks or water, or right to take or convey water
either within or without their district, and any rights, powers and
privileges of any water company, and contract with any person for
the supply of water.

Any
dispute as to whether the company are able and willing has to be
settled by arbitration. Where the council do supply water, they
have the same powers of carrying mains under streets or through
private lands as they have with respect to the laying of sewers, as
already mentioned. They can charge water rents which depend upon
agreements with consumers, or they may charge water rates assessed
on the net annual value of the premises supplied. It is to be
observed that they are not bound to charge for a supply of water at
all, unless they are required to do so in an urban district by at
least ten persons, rated to the poor rate, or in a parish in a
rural district by at least five persons so rated in the parish.

For the purpose of enabling them to supply water,
most of the provisions of the Waterworks Clauses Acts are
incorporated with the Public Health Act, and are made available for
the district council. They are empowered to supply water by measure
if they think fit, and may charge a
rent for water-meters. The power of the district
council to supply water is strictly limited to their own district,
but they may, with the sanction of the Local Government Board,
supply water to the council of an adjoining district on such terms
as may be agreed upon, or as, in case of dispute, may be settled by
arbitration. If any house is without a sufficient supply, and it
appears that a supply can be furnished at a reasonable cost, as
defined in the Public Health Act and the Public Health Water Act
1878, the owner may be required to provide the supply, and, if he
fails, the council may themselves provide the supply and charge the
owner with the cost. All public sources of water-supply such as
streams, pumps, wells, reservoirs, conduits, aqueducts and works
used for the gratuitous supply of water to the inhabitants of the
district are vested in the council, who may cause all such works to
be maintained and plentifully supplied with pure and wholesome
water for the gratuitous use of the inhabitants, but not for sale
by them. The council may supply water to public
baths or washhouses, or for trade or
manufacturing purposes. In the case of the former the supply may be
gratuitous. In the latter case it is to be on terms agreed between
the parties.

Provision is made for preventing the pollution
of water by gas refuse and enabling a district council, with the
sanction of the
attorney-general, to take any
proceedings they may think fit for preventing the pollution of any

empowered to obtain an order of justices directing the closing of

drinks for the use of man, if such water is found to be so polluted
as to be injurious to health.
Power is given to prohibit the use as dwellings of any cellars,
vaults or underground
rooms built or occupied after 1875, and with regard to such cellars
as were occupied as dwellings before 1875, the continued occupation
of these is also forbidden unless they comply with certain
stringent requirements as to the height of the rooms, height of the

Cellar . the street, open

District councils are required to keep a register of the
common
lodging-houses in their district. No person is allowed to keep
a common lodging-house unless he is registered, and a house may not
be registered until it has been inspected. and approved for the
purpose by an officer of the council.
Further, the council may refuse to register a keeper unless they
are satisfied of his character and of his fitness for the position.
The council are empowered to make by-laws for fixing the number of
lodgers and separating the sexes therein, promoting cleanliness and
ventilation, giving
of notices and taking precautions in case of any infectious
disease, and generally for the well-ordering of such houses.

There is no definition of the
expression " common lodging-house " in the Public Health Acts, and
at one time the courts decided that shelters for the destitute kept
by charitable persons were not common lodging-houses. That idea is
now exploded, and the acts apply to charitable institutions which
receive persons of the class ordinarily received into common
lodging-houses.
By-laws may also be made relating to houses let in lodgings
which are not common lodging-houses. These by laws are in practice
limited to those inhabited by the poorer classes, although the act
imposes no such restriction.
The Public Health Acts 1875 to 1907 contain elaborate provisions
for dealing with nuisances. Those which are dealt with summarily.
are thus enumerated:

In the event of such discovery by them or of
information given to them of the existence of any such nuisance,
the district council are required to serve a notice requiring the
abatement of the
nuisance on the person by whose act, default or sufferance it
arises or continues, or if such person cannot be found, on the
owner or occupier of the premises at which the nuisance arises. The
notice must require the abatement of the nuisance within a
specified time, and must prescribe the works which in the opinion
of the council are necessary to be done. If the nuisance arises
from the absence or defective construction of any structural
convenience, or if there is no occupier of the premises, the notice
must be served upon the owner. If the person who causes the
nuisance cannot be found, and it is clear that the nuisance does
not arise or continue by the act, default or sufferance of the
owner or occupier of the premises, the local authority may
themselves abate the nuisance without further order.

If the nuisance is such as to render a
dwellinghouse unfit for human habitation, the justices may close it
until it is rendered fit for that purpose. Disobedience under the
order of justices involves a penalty and a daily penalty for every
day during which default continues.

The district council may, if in their opinion
proceedings before justices afford an inadequateremedy, take
proceedings in the high court, but in that case, if the nuisance is
of a public nature, they must proceed by action in the name of the
attorney-general. The provisions as to nuisances are extended to
ships by an act of 1885.
It is forbidden to establish within an urban district without
the consent of the council any offensive trade, business or
manufacture. With regard to any offensive trade which has been
established or may be consented to in any urban district, if it is
verified by the medical officer or any two legally qualified
medical practitioners, or by any ten inhabitants of the district,
to be a nuisance or injurious to health, the urban district council
are required to take proceedings before magistrates with a view to
the abatement of the nuisance complained of.
Any medical officer or inspector of nuisances may inspect any
meat, &c., exposed for sale or
deposited in any place for the purpose of sale or of preparation
for sale and intended for the food of man. This power of inspection
is, in districts where the Public Health Act 1890 has been adopted,
extended to all articles intended for the food of man.

It is also
forbidden to let houses or rooms in which infected persons have
been lodging, or to make false statements to persons negotiating
for the hire of such rooms. An act was passed in the year 1890,
called the Infectious Diseases Prevention Act. When adopted it
enabled an urban or district council to obtain the inspection of
dairies where these were suspected to be the cause of infectious
disease, with a view to prohibiting the supply of
milk from such dairies if the fact were
established. The act of 1907 extended the provisions of the act of
1890. It enables a local authority to require dairymen to furnish a
complete list of sources of supply if the medical officer certifies
that any person is suffering from infectious disease which he has
reason to suspect is attributable to milk supplied within his
district. It also compels dairymen to notify infectious diseases
existing among their servants.

The diseases to which the act
applies are smallpox,
cholera, membranous
croup,
erysipelas, scarlatina or
scarlet fever,
typhus, typhoid, enteric, relapsing, continued or
puerperal
fever, and any other infectious disease to which the act has
been applied by the local authority of the district in the
prescribed manner. The most important provision, however, relating
To infectious disease is that contained in the Infectious Disease
Notification Act 1889. That was originally an adoptive act, but it
is now extended to all districts in England and Wales. It requires
the notification to the medical officer of health of the district
of every case in which a person is suffering from one of the
diseases above mentioned. The duty of notification is imposed upon
the head of the family, and also upon the medical practitioner who
may be in attendance on the patient. The medical attendant is
entitled to receive in respect of each notification a fee of 2s.
6d. if the case occurs in his private practice, and of is. if the
case occurs in his practice as medical officer of any public body
or institution. These fees are paid by the urban or rural district
council as the case may be. The provisions as to notification are
applied to every ship, vessel,
boat,
tent, van,
shed or similar structure used for human habitation in like manner
as nearly as may be as if it were a building. Exception is made,
however, in the case of a ship, vessel or boat belonging to a
foreign government.

The district council are empowered to provide hospitals or
temporary places for the reception of the sick. They may build
them, contract for the use of them, agree for the reception of
.
the sick inhabitants of their district into an existing
hospital, or combine with any other district council in providing a
common hospital. As has already been mentioned when dealing with
county councils, if a district council make default in providing
hospital accommodation, the county council may put in operation the
Isolation Hospitals Act. The power given to provide hospitals must
be exercised so as not to create a nuisance, and much litigation
has taken place in respect of the providing of hospitals for
smallpox. Up to the present time, however, the courts have refused
to accept as a principle that a smallpox hospital is necessarily a
source of danger to the neighbourhood, and for the most part
applications for
injunction on that ground have failed.
Where any part of the country appears to be threatened with or
is affected by any formidable epidemic, endemic or infectious
disease, the Local Government Board may make
regula tions for the speedy interment of the
dead, house-tohouse visitation, the provision of medical aid and
accommodation, the promotion of cleansing, ventilation and
disinfection, and the guarding against the spread of disease. Such
regulations are made and enforced by the district councils. The
provisions of the Public Health Acts relating to infectious disease
are for the most part extended to ships by an act of the year
1885.
District councils may, and if required by the Local Government
Board, must provide mortuaries, and they may make by-laws with
Mortu r respect to the management and charges for
the use of the same. Where the body of a person who has died of an
infectious disease is retained in a room where persons live or
sleep, or the retention of any dead
body may endanger health, any justice on the certificate of a
medical practitioner may order the removal of a body to a
mortuary and direct the body
to be buried within a time limited by the friends of the deceased
or in their default by the relieving officer. A district council
may also provide and maintain a proper place (otherwise than at a
workhouse or at a mortuary) for the reception of dead bodies during
the time required to conduct any
post mortem examination
ordered by a coroner.
Under an act of 1879 the district council have power to provide
and maintain a
cemetery
either within or without their district, and they may purchase or
accept a donation of land for that purpose. The provisions of the
Cemeteries Clauses Act 1847 apply to a cemetery thus provided.
These cannot all be referred to here, but it may be noted that no
part of the cemetery need be consecrated, but that if any part is,
such part is to be defined by suitable marks, and a chapel in
connexion with the Established Church must be erected in it. A
chaplain must also be
appointed to officiate at burials in the consecrated portion. The
power to provide a cemetery under the act under consideration must
not be confounded with that of providing a burial ground under the
Burial Acts. These acts will be mentioned later in connexion with
the powers of parish councils, for in general they are adopted for
a parish, part of a parish or combination of parishes, and are
administered by a burial board, except where that body has been
superseded by a parish council or joint committee. It may be
mentioned, however, that under the Local Government Act 1894, where
a burial board district is wholly in an urban district, the urban
council may resolve that the powers, duties and liabilities of the
burial board shall be transferred to the council, and thereupon the
burial board may cease to exist. And it is provided by the same act
that the Burial Acts shall not hereafter be adopted in any urban
parish without the approval of the urban council.

In an urban district the urban council have always had all the
powers and duties of a surveyor of highways under the Highway
highways Acts. But before 1894 a rural district council
had no .
power or duty in respect of highways except in a few cases
where, by virtue of a provision in the Highway Act 1878, the rural
sanitary authority of a district coincident in area with a highway
district were empowered to exercise all the powers of a a highway
board. Except in these cases the highway authority in a parish was
the surveyor of highways, elected annually by the inhabitants in
vestry, or in a highway district consisting of a number of parishes
united by order of quarter sessions, the highway board composed of
waywardens representing the several parishes.

The
highway authority in every district, rural as well as urban, is
therefore the district council. Of the chief duties of a district
council with regard to highways, the first and most obvious is the
duty to repair.
This duty was formerly enforceable by
indictment of the inhabitants of the parish,
but it is not quite clear whether this procedure is applicable, now
that the liability to repair is transferred to a council
representing a wider area. Under the Highway Acts it is enforceable
by summary proceedings before justices and by orders of the county
council, but in either case, if the liability to repair is
disputed, that question has to be decided on indictment preferred
against the highway authority alleged to be in default.

It is important to
observe, however, that an action does not lie against a district
council in respect of the failure to repair a highway even at the
suit of a person who has thereby been injured. The reason assigned
for this doctrine is that the council as highway surveyor stand in
the same position as the inhabitants of the parish, against whom
such an action would not lie. The district council are, however,
liable for any injury caused through negligence on the part of
their officers or servants in carrying out the work of repair.
But while rural as well as urban district councils have the
powers and duties of surveyors of highways, the provisions of the
Public Health Acts relating to streets apply only in urban
districts, except in so far as the Local Government Board may by
order have conferred urban powers upon a rural district council.
These provisions have now to be referred to.

It is defined by the act to
include any highway and any public bridge (not being a county
bridge), and any road, lane, footway, square, court,
alley or passage, whether a
thoroughfare or not. For certain purposes streets as thus defined
are divided into two classes, viz. those which are and those which
are not highways repairable by the inhabitants at large. But it has
to be borne in mind that it is not every highway that is repairable
by the inhabitants at large.

But in the year 1836, when the Highway Act 1835 came
into operation, the law was altered. It was possible, just as
formerly, to dedicate a way to the use of the public, and it
thereupon became a highway to all intents and purposes. But mere
dedication did not make
the way repairable by the public. That result was not to follow
unless certain stringent requirements were fulfilled. When it is
shown, therefore, that a highway has been dedicated after 1836, it
is not repairable by the inhabitants at large unless it can be
shown that these provisions have been complied with, or that it has
been declared to be repairable under provisions of the Public
Health Acts presently to be mentioned. (There was also power given
to justices, by the Highway Act 1862, to declare a private road or
occupation road in a highway district to be a public highway
repairable by the parish; but this power does not appear to have
been acted upon to any extent.) All streets being highways
repairable by the inhabitants at large within an urban district,
are vested in and under the control of the urban council. After
much litigation it has now been established that this provision
does not give the council an absolute property in the soil of the
street, but merely such a qualified property in the surfaces as
enables them to exercise control. The urban council are required
from time to time to cause all such streets to be made up and
repaired as occasion may require, and they are empowered to raise,
lower or alter the soil of the street, and to place and keep in
repair fences and posts for the safety of foot-passengers. The
other class of streets consists of those which are not highways
repairable by the inhabitants at large.

An alternative procedure has been
provided by the Private Street Works Act, which may be adopted by
any urban council. One important point of difference is that under
the latter act the council may resolve that the expenses shall be
apportioned among the owners not merely according to frontage, but
according to the greater or less degree of benefit to be derived by
any premises from the works.
Where a house or building in a street is taken down to be
rebuilt, the urban district council may prescribe the line to which
it is to be rebuilt, paying compensation to the building owner for
any damage which he may sustain consequent upon the requirement.
Save to this extent, no power is given by the general law to a
district council to prescribe a building line. But under an act of
1888 it is provided that it shall not be lawful in any urban
district without the consent of the urban authority to erect or
bring forward any house or building in any street or any part of
such house or building beyond the front main wall of the house or
building on either side thereof in the same street.
The control exercised by an urban district council over streets
and buildings is to a very large extent exercised through by-laws
which they are empowered to make for various purposes relating to
the laying out and formation of new streets, the erection and
construction of new buildings, the provision of sufficient
air-space about buildings to secure a free circulation of air, and
the provision of suitable and sufficient sanitary conveniences. The
manner in which such by-laws are made and confirmed will be
hereafter noticed. In general, the by-laws require plans of new
streets to be submitted to the council, and they are required to
approve or disapprove of these plans within a month.

Among the miscellaneous powers of an
urban council with respect to streets may be mentioned the power to
widen or improve, and certain powers incorporated from the Towns
Improvement Clauses Act 1847, with respect to naming streets,
numbering houses, improving the line of streets, removing
obstructions, providing protection in respect of ruinous or
dangerous buildings, and requiring precautions to be taken during
the construction and repair of sewers, streets and houses. An urban
council may also provide for the
lighting of any street in their district, and

An urban council may also provide public clocks or
pay for the reasonable cost of repairing and maintaining any public
clocks in the district, though not vested in them.
Where an urban council are the council of a borough, and in
other cases with the consent of the owners and ratepayers of the
district, they may provide market accommodation for their district.
They may not, however, establish any market so as to interfere with
any market already established in the district under a franchise or
charter. For purposes of markets certain provisions of the Markets
and Fairs Clauses Act 1847 are incorporated with the Public Health
Act.

Every district council may enter into such contracts as are
necessary for carrying into execution the various purposes of the
Public Health Acts. A district council being a corporation, the
general law applies in the case of a rural council that they must
contract under their common
seal,
the exception to this rule including the doing of acts very
of
lands. frequently recurring or too insignificant to be worth
the trouble of affixing the common seal. In the case of an urban
council certain stringent regulations are laid down.

Every local authority may also, for purposes of the act, purchase
or take on lease, sell or exchange, any lands. Such lands as are
not required for the purpose for which they were purchased must,
unless the Local Government Board otherwise direct, be sold. Powers
of compulsory purchase of lands are also given under the Lands
Clauses Acts, but before these can be put in operation certain
conditions must be observed. The Local Government Board must make
inquiry into the propriety of allowing the lands to be taken, and
the power to acquire the lands compulsorily can only be conferred
by means of a provisional order confirmed by parliament.
With regard to the by-laws which district councils may make for
many purposes, the subjects of which have been already from time to
time mentioned, it is only necessary to state
By=laws.
that these require to be confirmed by the Local Govern ment Board.
Such confirmation does not, however, give validity to a by-law
which cannot be justified by the provisions of the act, and many
by-laws which have been so confirmed have been held to be invalid
under the general law as being uncertain, unreasonable or repugnant
to the law of the
realm. For the
guidance of local authorities, the Local Government Board have from
time to time issued model series of by-laws dealing with the
various subjects for which by-laws may be made, and these are for
the most part followed throughout England and Wales.

The general rule, however, prevails
over by far the greater part of England and Wales. The general
district rate is made and levied on the occupiers of all kinds of
property for the time being assessable to any rate for the relief
of the poor, subject to a few exceptions and conditions. Of these
the first is that the owner may be rated instead of the occupier,
at the option of the urban authority, where the value of the
premises is under Rio, where the premises are let to weekly or
monthly tenants, or where the premises are let in separate
apartments, or the rents become payable or are collected at any
shorter period than quarterly. When the owner is rated he must be
assessed upon a certain proportion only of the net annual value of
the premises. The owners or occupiers of certain specified
properties are assessed in respect of the same in the proportion of
one-fourth part only of the net annual value thereof.

The expenses of highways in an urban district fall
as a rule upon the general district rate, but under certain
conditions, which need not be here set out, a separate highway rate
may have to be levied. The urban council have extensive powers of
amending the rate, and the rate is collected in such manner as the
urban authority may appoint.
The expenses of a rural district council are of two kinds. Of
these the first is called general expenses, and it includes the
expense of the establishment and officers of the council, of
disinfection, providing of conveyance for infected persons, and the
expenses of highways. These expenses are payable out of a common
fund which is raised out of the poor rate of the several parishes
in the district, according to the rateable value of each. Special
expenses include the expenses of the construction and maintenance
and cleansing of sewers, providing water-supply, and all other
expenses incurred or payable in respect of a parish or contributory
place within the district determined by order of the Local
Government Board to be special expenses.

Where the urban council are the council of a borough, their
accounts as urban council are made up and audited in the same

Among other acts which are either incorporated with the Public
Health Acts or have been passed subsequently to them, one of the
Housing most important is the Housing of the Working

ofHousing 1890. It contains three distinct
parts. Under the first an urban district council may, by means of a
scheme, acquire,
working . rearrange and reconstruct an
area which has been proved
classes to be insanitary. The
scheme has to be confirmed by the Local Government Board, and
carried out by means of a provisional order. The second part of the
act deals with unhealthy dwellinghouses, and requires the urban
district council to take steps for the closing of any
dwelling-houses within their district which are unfit for human
habitation. The third part of the act deals with what is called in
the act working-class lodging-houses.

Land may be acquired for erecting lodging-houses
as above defined, and these, when erected, may be managed and let

The urban district council may adopt the provisions of the Baths
Baths and and Washhouses Acts, and thereunder provide
public wash= baths, wash-houses, open bathing-places,
covered swim. ming baths, which they may close in the winter months
houses and use as gymnasia.
Under the Tramways Act 1870 the urban district council may
obtain from the Board of Trade a provisional order authorizing the
construction of tramways in their district by themselves. Any
private persons, and any corporation or company may, with the
consent of the council, obtain the like authority, but the Board of
Trade have power in certain cases to dispense with the consent of
the local authority. Where the order is obtained by a person or
body other than the district council, the council may purchase the
undertaking at the end of twenty-one years after the tramways have
been constructed or at the expiration of every subsequent period of
seven
years, and the terms of purchase are that the person or company
must sell the undertaking upon payment of the then value, exclusive
of any allowance for past or future profits of the undertaking, or
any compensation for compulsory sale or other consideration
whatsoever of the
tramway,
and all lands, buildings, works, materials and plant suitable to
and used for the purposes of the undertaking. It should be
observed, however, that although the local authority may themselves
construct, and may acquire from the original promoters a system of
tramways, they may not themselves work them without special
authority of the legislature, and must in general let the working
of the undertaking to some person or company.

The resolution must have been published in
newspapers circulated in
the district, and must have received the consent of the Local
Government Board or of a secretary of state, if the matter is one
within his jurisdiction; and further, the expenses must not be
incurred unless the promotion or opposition has been assented to by
the owners and ratepayers of the district assembled at a meeting
convened for the purpose of considering the matter, and if
necessary, signified by a poll. Moreover, the expenses must, before
they can be charged to the rates, be examined and allowed by some
person authorized by a secretary of state or the Local Government
Board, as the case may be.
Under the Pawnbrokers Act 1872 the licences to pawnbrokers,
which were formerly granted by justices, are now granted by
district councils.
Under the Sale of Food and Drugs Acts certain important duties
devolve upon medical officers and inspectors of nuisances who are
officers of district councils. But for the most part the
Adulrera- acts do not impose upon district councils
themselves tion. any special powers or duties, although,
as a matter of fact, prosecutions for offences are usually
undertaken by the district councils, and the expenses of the
execution of the acts are paid out of their funds. In quarter
sessions boroughs, however, where the council have the duty of
appointing a public analyst, they are under an obligation to put
the acts in force from time to time, as occasion may arise. The
acts themselves must be consulted for the procedure, beginning with
the taking of samples and ending with the conviction of an
offender.
The powers and duties of a district council under the Rivers
Pollution Prevention Act 1876 have been incidentally
Rivers noticed when dealing with county councils, whose
powers pollution. under the acts are precisely the
same.
Under the Electric Lighting Acts the Board of Trade may license
any district council to supply
electricity, or may grant to them a
provisional order for the same purpose. A similar
Electric
licence or order may be granted to a private person or
l i
ghting. company to supply electricity within the district of a
district council, but in that case the consent of the district
council must be given, unless the Board of Trade, for special
reasons, dispense with such consent. These licences are now rarely
applied for or granted, and the provisions which were formerly
contained in the provisional orders have now been consolidated by
the Electric Lighting Clauses Act 1899, the effect of which will be
to make provisional orders uniform for the future. It is now almost
the exception, at least in urban districts, to find a district
council which has not obtained a provisional order under these
acts, and for the most part the undertakings of local authorities
in the way of supplying electricity have been very prosperous.

The district
council might acquire land, let it and regulate it, and they might
provide common pasture. These powers were, by an act of 1907,
transferred to parish councils.
The urban district council execute the Public
Libraries Acts for their
district, and the rate for the expenses of the acts, which may not
exceed td. in the £, is in a borough in the nature of a borough
rate, and in any other urban district in
libraries. the
nature of a general district rate. Under the acts not only public
libraries, but also public museums, schools for science,
art galleries and
schools for art, with the necessary buildings, furniture, fittings
and conveniences, may be provided for the inhabitants of the
district. Land may be acquired, and money borrowed, for the
purposes of the acts.

protection, commons, open spaces, canal boats, factories and
workshops, margarine, sale of horse-flesh and shop hours.

They elected the
churchwardens and overseers, the highway surveyor, if the parish
was a separate unit for highway purposes, and the waywardens if it
was included in a highway district. But there was nothing in the
nature of a representative body exercising any powers of government
in the parish regarded as a separate area. Under the act of 1894
this was changed. In every rural parish, that is to say, in every
parish which is not included within an urban district, there is a
parish meeting, which consists of the parochial electors of the
parish. As already stated, these are the persons whose names are on
the parliamentary and local government registers. If the parish has
a population exceeding 300, a parish council must be elected. If it
has a population of loo or upwards, the county council are bound to
make an order for the election of a parish council if the parish
meeting so resolves. Where there is no parish council, as will be
seen hereafter, the various powers conferred upon a council are
exercised by the parish meeting itself. Two or more parishes may be
grouped together under a common parish council by order of the
county council if the parish meetings of each parish consent.

At the annual parish meeting the parish
council, if there is one, is elected, and the members of the
council, who originally held office for one year only, now, under a
subsequent act, hold office for three years. Any person who is a
parochial elector, or who has for twelve months preceding the
election resided in the parish, or within
3 m. thereof,
may be elected parish councillor, and the number of councillors is
to be fixed from time to time by the county council, not being less
than five nor more than fifteen. Women, whether married or single,
are eligible.
The council are elected in manner provided by the rules of the
Local Government Board. The rules now in force will be found in the
Statutory Rules and Orders. They are very similar to those
which are in force with reference to the elections of district
councils, which have already been noticed. If a poll is demanded,
it must be taken under the Ballot Act, as applied by the rules, and
for all practical purposes it may be taken that the election
proceeds in the same manner as that of a district council. The
parish council elects a chairman annually. He may be one of their
own number, or some other person qualified to be a parish
councillor. The council is a body corporate, may hold land in
mortmain, and can appoint committees for its own parish or jointly
with any other parish council.
to Among the powers conferred upon a parish council are
Powers appoint those of appointing overseers and of

No payment is made to them. The office is compulsory, but
certain persons are privileged from being elected to it. The
assistant overseer, who was formerly nominated by the inhabitants
and vestry and then formally appointed by justices, is now, as has
been stated, appointed by the parish council. He holds office at
pleasure, and receives such remuneration as the council fix, and he
performs all the duties of an overseer, or such of them as may be
prescribed by the terms of his appointment. There may be in a
parish a
collector of
rates appointed by the guardians. In that event, an assistant
overseer cannot be appointed to perform the duties of collector of
rates, but, on the other hand, the parish council may invest the
collector with any of the powers of an overseer.

Among the most important of the matters which concern a rural
parish is the administration of what are commonly called the
adoptive acts. These include the Lighting and Watching Act, the
Baths and Washhouses Acts, the Burial Acts, the Public
Lighting Improvement Act and the Public Libraries Acts.

The inspectors took the
necessary steps for having the parish lighted (the provisions as to
watching having been obsolete for many years), and the expenses of
lighting were raised by the overseers upon an order issued to them
by the inspectors.

Now this act, like the
other adoptive acts, can only be adopted by the parish meeting, and
where adopted for part only of a parish, must be adopted by a
parish meeting held for that part. After the adoption of the act it
is carried into execution by the parish council, if there is one,
and if not, by the parish meeting, and the expenses are raised in
the same manner as heretofore.
The Baths and Washhouses Acts have already been
Baths
and referred to in dealing with district councils, and it is
Wash- sufficient to say that they are now adopted and ad-
houses ministered in a rural parish in the manner pointed
out A`"' with reference to the Lighting and Watching Act. The same
may be said of the Burial Acts, but these are sufficiently
important to require special notice. These acts contain provisions
whereby burials may be prohibited in urban districts, and
Burial churchyards or burial grounds already existing may
be
Acts. closed when full. Formerly, when the acts had
been adopted by the vestry, it was necessary to appoint a burial
board to carry the acts into execution and provide and
manage burial grounds. Now, in a
rural parish which is coextensive with an area for which the acts
have been adopted, the burial board is abolished and the acts are
administered by the parish council; and the acts cannot be adopted
in a rural parish save by the parish meeting. If the area under a
burial board in 1894 was partly in a rural parish and partly in an
urban district, the burial board was superseded, and the powers of
the board are exercised bya joint committeeappointed partly by the
urban district council and partly by the parish council, or parish
meeting, as the case may be.

The distinction between a
burial ground under the Burial Acts and a cemetery provided under
the Public Health Acts has already been noticed.

It has been mentioned that a
portion of the burial ground must be left unconsecrated.

In that case, however, the parish council may, within
ten years thereafter, determine that a separate unconsecrated
burial ground shall also be provided for the parish. The expenses
of the execution of the Burial Acts are provided by the overseers
out of the poor rate upon the certificate of the body entrusted
with the execution of them. In the event of the acts being adopted
for a portion only of a rural parish, the burial board, or the
parish meeting, may by resolution transfer all the powers of the
board to the parish council.
The Public Improvement Act, when adopted, enables a parish
council to purchase or lease, or accept gifts of land for the
purpose of forming public walks, exercise or play grounds, and
ublic to provide for the expense by means of a parish
improve- Improve- ment rate. Before any such rate is
imposed, however, m ea t Act. a sum in amount not less
than at least half of the estimated cost of the proposed
improvement must have been raised by private subscription or
donation, and the rate must not exceed sixpence in the;.
The Public Libraries Acts enable the authority adopting them to
provide public libraries, museums, schools for science, art
galleries Public and schools for art. The expenses in a
rural parish are defrayed by means of a rate raised with, and as
part of, the poor rate, with a qualification to the effect that
agri cultural land, market gardens and nursery grounds are to be
assessed to the rate at one-third only of their rateable value. The
expenses of a parish council may not, without the consent of a
parish meeting, exceed the amount of a rate of threepence in the
for the financial year; but with the consent of the parish meeting
the limit may be increased to sixpence, exclusive of expenses under
the adoptive acts. If it is necessary to borrow, the consent of the
parish meeting and of the county council must be obtained. The
expenses are payable out of the poor rate by the overseers on the
precept of the parish council.
One of the most important powers conferred upon a parish council
is that which enables them to prevent stoppage or diversion of any
public right of way without their consent and without the approval
of the parish meeting. The council may also complain to the county
council that the district council have failed to sewer their parish
or provide a proper water-supply, or generally to enforce the
provisions of the Burial Acts; and upon such complaint, if
ascertained to be well founded, the county council may transfer to
themselves the powers and duties of the district council, or may
appoint a competent person to perform such powers and duties. In a
parish which is not sufficiently large to have a parish council,
most of the powers and duties conferred or imposed on the parish
council are exercised by the parish meeting. It may be convenient
here to add that where, under the Local Government Act 1894, the
powers of a parish council are not already possessed by an urban
district council, the Local Government Board may by order confer
such powers on the urban council. This has been done almost
universally, as far as regards the power to appoint overseers and
assistant overseers, and in many cases urban councils have also
obtained powers to appoint trustees of parochial charities.
The foregoing is a sketch of the scheme of local government
carried out in England and Wales. No attempt has been made to deal
with poor law (q.v.) or education (q.v.).

It will be seen that the
scheme, as at present existing, has for its object the
simplification of local government by the abolition of unnecessary
independent authorities, and that this has been carried out almost
completely, the principal exception being that in some cases burial
boards still exist which have not been superseded either by urban
district councils or by parish councils or parish meetings. There
are also some matters of local administration arising under what
are called commissions of sewers. These exist for the purpose of
regulating drainage, and providing defence against water in fen
lands or lands subject to floods from rivers or tidal waters. The
commissioners derive their authority from the Sewers Commission
Acts, which date from the time of
Henry VIII., from the Land
Drainage Act 1861, and from various local acts. It is unnecessary,
however, to consider in any detail the powers exercised by
commissioners of sewers in the few areas under their control.

Victoria History of the
Counties of England (dedicated to Queen Victoria) began to
appear; its volumes deal with each county from every aspect -
natural history, prehistoric and historic antiquities, ethnography,
history, economic conditions, topography and sport being dealt with
by authorities in all branches. The maps of the
Ordnance, Geological and Hydrographic Surveys
delineate the configuration and geology of England and the adjacent
seas with a completeness unsurpassed in any other country.
