Explanatory Note

(This Note is not part of the Order)

This Order makes changes within Greater London to the boundary of the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (“Chelsea”) with the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham (“Fulaham”). Consequential changes are made to borough ward boundaries and to the boundaries of petty sessional areas and coroner’s districts. The order also provides for so much of the Wandon Road Estate as is, at the date of making the Order in Chelsea, to be retained property for the purposes of regulation 62(1)(b) of the Local Government Area Changes Regulations 1976 (S.I. 1976/246) (“the 1976 Regulations”).

The map and table at the end of this Note give a general guide to the areas affected. In approximate terms, the total area of land transferred from Chelsea to Fulham is 4.4 hectares (population of 154), and that transferred from Fulham to Chelsea is 17 hectares (population of 1,078). For full details of the transfers made, the order maps (described in article 2) should be inspected. Any person may inspect them at any reasonable time at the offices of the council for either of the boroughs affected, and also at the offices of the Secretary of State for the Environment located in 2 Marsham Street, London, SW1P 3EB.

The 1976 Regulations (amended by S.I. 1978/247) contain general provisions regarding the effect of orders such as this one.
