List of county councils in England
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
There are currently 27 county councils in England, covering areas known as non-metropolitan counties and divided into a number of non-metropolitan districts, which each have a district council.[1] The first county councils were created in 1889. There was a significant reform of the number, powers and jurisdictions of county councils in 1974. Their number has been decreasing further due to incremental reforms carried out between 1986 and 2009.
