Boundaries for Wards in England and Wales, as at December 2011. The BGC boundaries are generalised (20m) - clipped to the coastline (Mean High Water mark), however the polygons have been simplified to reduce file size more or less in line with that of 200m datasets (20m was the only available version). LAD codes and names have been added using the ONS Dec 2011 lookup. Contains both Ordnance Survey and ONS Intellectual Property Rights.
