It is now generally accepted that Surrey was the southern region of Middlesex as far as the North Downs and beyond that was conjoined to Sussex. Another County shorn off from a bigger unit. In this case the south-east corner below the Chilterns is part of the Kingdom of Middlesex.

The Government are keen to bring in regional government for England. This will almost certainly mean the abolition of all County Councils, so from Herts to Surrey everyone will end up in the same boat as Berks and Middlesex.

It is possible that with the current review the regions of England will be based on the kingdoms and provinces of the Anglo-Saxons. Already Northumbria is a working entity once again, from tourism to the police the name is back in business, add to this Wessex reborn as a royal title, name of the water supply company and a football league, Mercia from a radio station to a police authority.

East Anglia already a region in its own right, Kent and Sussex — well we rest our case. Middlesex is one of the smallest counties of the United Kingdom , exceeding only Rutland , West Lothian , Kinross-shire and Clackmannanshire in size.

However, it is also one of the most populous, being almost wholly swallowed up by London and its suburbs. Middlesex has been called "the Capital County" as the home of the capital city whether you think that is London or Westminster.

Unbroken townscape stretches from one side of the county to the other. This does however just link town to town without always erasing the distinctiveness of each Middlesex town and village. Most distinctive are the City of London and the City of Westminster adjoining it, the former housing the financial institutions of the kingdom and the latter its social, cultural and political institutions, and of course the top shops. The City of London is unique in being governed mainly by the business community which are its main inhabitants.

London by whatever definition is a unique and fascinating city, and one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. The change of perceptions, the growth of London and its monolithic grip on the imagination, has confined the name of Middlesex in many minds to the outer suburban fringe. Here there is a distinct suburban life. This is a mixture of calm communities, small towns and the London commuter belt.

Within it towns such as Enfield , Ruislip and Uxbridge are distinct and loathe to call themselves "London". Some rural life survives along the Colne Valley forming Middlesex's western boundary and the northern stretches surrounding Potter's Bar.

Potters Bar itself is a town separated from the conurbation, if individually urbanized in its own way. Middlesex is on the north bank of the River Thames , bounded on three sides by rivers, namely the Thames to the south, the Colne to the west or leastwise its old course and the Lea to the east.

In the north the boundary is mostly formed by a ridge of hills broken by the Barnet valley, though the boundary around Barnet is winding and somewhat hard to follow. Middlesex is surrounded by five counties: Surrey is to the south across the Thames; Kent lies across the Thames in the south-east; Essex is to the east, across the Lea; Hertfordshire is to the north and north-west; and Buckinghamshire is to the west across the Colne.

Geographically, Middlesex is low-lying and contained within the basin of the River Thames, which forms the southern boundary. The highest point of the county is on the High Road, Bushey Heath at feet above sea level, just yards from the Hertfordshire border. The City of London has been self-governing since at least the thirteenth century and probably since before the Norman conquest of The landscape of Middlesex is overwhelmingly urban. From early times Middlesex has been dominated by its greatest town, London.
