(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order realigns the boundary between the counties of Cambridgeshire and Suffolk, affecting the Cambridgeshire district of East Cambridgeshire and the Suffolk district of Forest Heath. Most of the areas transferred are small. In approximate terms, the areas transferred from Cambridgeshire to Suffolk have a total area of 375 hectares, and a population of 10, while those transferred from Suffolk to Cambridgeshire have an area of 7 hectares, and a population of 2. Consequential changes to the boundaries of local government electoral areas, petty sessional divisions and coroners' districts are made.
This map and table forming part of this Note are a general guide only to the areas affected, and the maps described in article 2 should be inspected for full details of the transfers. Any person may inspect the maps at all reasonable times at the offices of the council for each district affected, and additionally at the offices of the Secretary of State for the Environment located in 2 Marsham Street, London SW1P 3EB.
The Local Government Area Changes Regulations 1976 contain general provisions regarding the effect of orders such as this one.
