English Regions: Codes, Names and Centroids (ONS)

onsgeography/england-regions

Looks up the nine regions of England from the Office for National Statistics December 2024 edition: the GSS code (RGN24CD, E12000001 to E12000009), the region name, its centroid in British National Grid and in latitude and longitude, and its area and perimeter. Returns all regions up to a limit, or filter by code or name. England only: Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are not covered. Attributes only, no boundary polygons.
