I imagine some of us on here may find this very interesting/useful;

National Character Areas ï¿½ defining Englandï¿½s natural boundaries

Quote:

National Character Areas (NCAs) divide England into 159 distinct natural areas. Each is defined by a unique combination of landscape, biodiversity, geodiversity and cultural and economic activity. Their boundaries follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision making framework for the natural environment.
