Englands administrative counties

Administrative counties var et niveau blandt Englands administrative enheder, som blev anvendt i lokalstyret fra 1889 til 1974. De blev etableret i loven Local Government Act 1888 og afskaffet i loven Local Government Act 1972. De administrative counties blev erstattet af metropolitan og non-metropolitan counties, som der, noget fejlagtigt, ofte bliver refereret til som administrative counties.
