Return Cotswolds AONB boundary to alignment in Natural England GeoJOSN file. (However, this doesn't align with the Land Registry Index Polygons, so I think may be subject to a coordiante transformation offset.)

Unsure why you believe there's a relation between Cotwold AONB & Land Registry Index Polygons
What surety is there that the Land Registry Index Polygons are correctly positioned?

Comment from Robert Whittaker
The AONB boundary clearly goes around the village of Alderton there. The only sensible thing to do would be to follow the boundaries (or on-the-ground boundary features) of the village properties, probably as depicted on OS Mastermap.
As far as I know, the digital Land Registry boundaries are also drawn by reference to OS Mastermap. They sometimes contain errors, but if you match them to various visible boundaries on Bing imagery, you can get a good idea of where they are right, and where there may be discrepancies.
Either way, I think it's unlikely that the official boundary of the AONB would have been deliberately chosen to run a metre or so inside the boundary of the properties in the village, rather than following the boundary itself.
