	Greater London - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The term "London" is often used in reference to Greater London or to the urban conurbation, not to the tiny City of London at its centre (which is often styled as "the City" or "the Square Mile").
		Greater London is not a "City" as it does not have official city status; in any case one London borough, Westminster, is officially a city, as well as the City of London itself which would make such a status anomalous.
		Greater London was formally created by the London Government Act 1963, which took force on 1 April 1965, replacing the former administrative counties of Middlesex and London, adding the City, which was not under the London County Council, and absorbing parts of Kent, Hertfordshire, Surrey, and Essex.
