Settlements
We now have pages for more than 12,000 settlements in England, which too many for a browsable list to be useful. The best ways to find settlements are:
- use the search box to find one settlement
- use the links on the county pages (see below) to query for all settlements in that county. You can also do the same for landscape areas.
