Thats fascinating about East Retford. I had always assumeed the old borough constituency consisted only of the town, which it did evidently before 1828.
Ofcourse since 1983 EAst Retford has been in the Newark seat, so the current BAssetlaw is somewhat different, but it will return at the next election to the boundaries that go back all that way
