Title: Agricultural and Horticultural Census: Parishes lookup table: English parishes (version 2)
Description: Agricultural and Horticultural Census: Parishes lookup table: English parishes (version 2). This dataset is effectively a lookup table whose purpose is to translate the codes for agricultural parishes in England which are used in the parish summaries datasets for 1989-1994. These codes appear in the AG_PARISH field in the 'PARISH' tables of the datasets. Codes for parishes take the form of a four or five digit number, with the first two digits denoting the county and the remaining digits denoting the individual parish.
The dataset comprises a single table with fields which indicate the following: the name of the agricultural parish; the code for the agricultural parish; an identifier which appears to have been tied to MAFF's GIS and may have been derived from Ordnance Survey boundary line software; and an indication of the 'status' of the parish, i.e. the type of local authority area which the parish represented.
