 | | The traditional counties have (even if the 1844 changes be accepted) many anomalies, and many small exclaves, where a parcel of land would be politically part of one county despite not being physically connected to the rest of the county. | | | After local government reform in the late 19th century, the traditional counties are no longer in general use for official geographic purposes (in favour of ceremonial counties or administrative counties), but the system in use is partially based on them, and the postal counties often still follow them. | | | Additionally, the administrative counties of Avon, Cleveland and Humberside were abolished, and the traditional borders restored for ceremonial purposes. |

| | Having the name alone linking to Gloucestershire (administrative) obviously would not work, since it produces the strange contradiction that South Gloucestershire (administrative) is not in fact in Gloucestershire - another example of administrative counties obviously being unable to stand alone and make sense without traditional Counties. | | | I captilaise it when it refers to one of the traditional counties only, to aid the clarity of the distinction between these entities and the administrative counties or the ceremonial counties or registration counties or the various other uses of the word 'county'. | | | What you suggest would work for administrative counties whose name differs from traditinal Counties, such as South Gloucestershire and Gloucestershire; however, it obviously wouldn't work for those Counties where this is not the case (which is most of them), and I think any system must be consistent. |
