South Midlands

The South Midlands is an area of England. The term is not widely used and it is not one of the English administative regions. Its main usage is as a label for one of the areas identified by the Government for urban development. It consists of Northamptonshire, Bedfordshire, and northern Buckinghamshire - the latter two areas not usually being considered part of the general Midlands area.
