Each numbered area (1, 2, ...) has an upper-tier or single-tier council. Each lettered area (a, b, ...) has a lower-tier council. Where a name spans more than one column, it indicates that the same boundaries apply in those columns. For example, the ceremonial and non-metropolitan counties of Warwickshire are coterminous, whereas the ceremonial and non-metropolitan counties of Staffordshire have different boundaries.
