They accompany the Boundary Commissioners' report for England and Wales of 1868, associated with the reform legislation of 1867, which was presented to Parliament and printed for Her Majesty's Stationery Office. Plans credited to Henry James cover boroughs ranging from Birmingham, Bolton-le-Moors and Dudley to Kidderminster, Bewdley, Evesham, Leominster and Thirsk, with Warwick and Leamington Priors treated together.
