Note 2 — LORD MACAULAY. ON THE REFORM BILL OF 1832; HOUSE OF COMMONS, MARCH 2, 1831.

Reading edition

Note 2, p. 73.—Only so much of London was represented as was included in the territory of the Corporation—scarcely more than one square mile in the heart of the metropolis. The other portions of the city, Westminster, Southwark, Paddington, Chelsea, etc., were subsequently enfranchised as individual boroughs.
