Thread: London Areas?

freckles1964 · 14-08-2008, 08:02 AM

Hello,

Sorry if I am being a little thick but some of the census sheets I have been looking through have said EC London or WC London instead of the actual parishes.

Any idea what these initials stand for?

Thanks

Tina

WC1 = west city EC1 = east city. I think the queen has E1 but its an city centre postcode, hope it helps coz i dont know the full details.
