South Swindon is a constituency represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament since 2010 by Robert Buckland, a Conservative. ==Boundaries== 1997-2012: The Borough of Swindon wards of Central, Dorcan, Eastcott, Freshbrook & Grange Park, Old Town & Lawn, Parks, Ridgeway, Shaw & Nine Elms, Toothill & Westlea, Walcot, and Wroughton & Chiseldon. 2012-present: The Borough of Swindon wards of Central, Chiseldon & Lawn, Eastcott, Liden, Eldene & Park South, Lydiard & Freshbrook, Old Town, Ridgeway, Shaw, Walcot & Park North, and Wroughton & Wichelstowe, plus one polling district of the Covingham & Dorcan Ward and two polling districts of the Mannington & Western Ward. The constituency was created in 1997 from parts of the seats of Swindon that was abolished, and Devizes that remains. This seat with a population of around 93,000 incorporates the southern half of the town as well as farms and villages with hamlets to the immediate south and east of Swindon. It used slightly amended boundaries for the 2010 election, which saw it lose South Marston to North Swindon. The border now runs from Dorcan across to Bishopstone and then down to Russley Park before running west to Barbury Castle. From there it runs north to the Roughmoor area and loops back down to incorporate West Swindon, before following the railway line east through the town and back to Dorcan. In addition to the south of Swindon, main settlements include Wroughton, Chiseldon, Wanborough and Liddington.〔(2010 post-revision map non-metropolitan areas and unitary authorities of England )〕 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「South Swindon (UK Parliament constituency)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
