(1 square mile = 640 acres)

Each Parish Village

c.700 houses =            c.350 acres

+ common services      c.150 acres max.

                                    c.500 acres

Each Borough District

            = 50 Parish Villages = c.25,000 acres (i.e. c.39 square miles?)

                                                                        (= c. 6 miles by 6 miles)

Britain = c. 55m acres (c. 90,000 square miles)

(1) Present population of c. 50+m in c.25,000 Parishes [of c.2000 px] in c. 500 Hundred Districts

gives average area per District of

c.100,000 acres

(or c.180 square miles – i.e. c. 13 miles by 13 miles) (25,000 [acres] built on).

(c.1/4^th of land of GB is ‘built’ on) (now c. 1/10^th).

(2) Future possible population of c.100m in c.50,000 Parishes in c.1,000 Districts

(in even [= equal] urban-rural ratio)

gives 500 Boroughs of 25,000 acres (i.e. c.39 sq. miles [see above])

= c.12,500,000 acres (i.e. c.19,500 sq. miles)

and 500 Hundreds to fill 42,500,000 acres (c.70,500 sq. miles)

giving each Hundred c.85,000 acres (/c.141 sq. miles)(i.e. c.12 miles by 12 miles)

(of which c.25,000 acres built on)

i.e. (c.1/2 of land of GB is built on => this extra 50,000,000

(if at all) must be housed on land reclaimed from Sea, etc.
