They are one of the two main legal definitions of the counties of England in modern usage, the other being the counties for the purposes of local government legislation.
Administrative counties were subnational divisions of England used for local government from 1889 to 1974. They were created by the Local Government Act 1888, which established an elected county council for each area. Some geographically large historic counties were divided into several administrative counties, each with its own county council.
