Hi Rob,

Thanks very much for the link. 

Why did the counties change in 1974?  What was the
reason?

Thanks,

http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/Regions/England.html
allows you to click on a county name and then see
where it was prior to 1974, and tells you of the
changes, but it would be so much easier to be able to
click on an area of land to see what it is called.
