Subdivisions of England
The subdivisions of England constitute a hierarchy of administrative divisions and other non-administrative areas. For local government, the country is divided into strategic authority areas, counties, districts and parishes. In some areas, counties and districts form a two-tier administrative structure, while in others they are combined under a unitary authority. Strategic authorities and parishes cover only part of England. The current system for local government is the result of incremental reform based on legislation that was implemented in 1965 and 1974. Exceptionally, the City of London and the Isles of Scilly are sui generis subdivisions that predate these reforms. England is also divided into nine regions, now used primarily for statistical purposes. It is divided into 48 ceremonial counties, that are appointed a Lord-lieutenant, the representative of the monarch in those area.
