Epping was a parliamentary constituency represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom from 1885 to 1974. It elected one Member of Parliament (MP) by the first past the post system of election. The constituency was abolished for the February 1974 general election and divided between the seats of Chingford, Epping Forest and Harlow. Its most prominent MP was Winston Churchill, who served as Prime Minister during the Second World War for the latter part of his tenure in the seat. In the 1955 and 1959 general elections, the celebrated cricket commentator and journalist John Arlott stood as the Liberal Party candidate. ==Boundaries== 1885-1918: The Sessional Divisions of Epping, Dunmow (except the parish of Thaxted), Harlow, and Ongar. 1918-1945: The Urban Districts of Epping, Buckhurst Hill, Chingford, Loughton, Waltham Holy Cross, Wanstead, and Woodford, and the Rural District of Epping. 1945-1974: The Municipal Borough of Chingford, the Urban Districts of Epping and Waltham Holy Cross, and the Rural District of Epping. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Epping (UK Parliament constituency)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
