HISTORIC COUNTY BOUNDARIES

That this House notes that 27th November is the 700th anniversary of the arrival of the first Lancashire honourable Members, Matteus de Redman and Johannes de Eywas, at Westminster; recognises the distinct loyalties which are still felt to the historic county of Lancashire; and calls on local councils to signpost the traditional boundaries of Lancashire and of the other historic counties of England such as Westmorland, Yorkshire and Cheshire.
