Data results for Parished/Unparished Areas
Posted by alexkemp on 24 August 2016 in English. Last updated on 26 August 2016.A recent Diary entry (A Suggestion to Fix Poor LSN in the UK) contained the phrase “Why those facilities fail for a substantial part (40%) of the UK”, and I promised to publish the raw data that led to the ‘40%’ claim. This is the fulfilment of that promise and be warned, it is long & intensely computer geeky.
In brief, that earlier Diary entry said:
- Location, Search & Naming facilities (LSN) require the presence of an “admin_level=10” (civil parish) area in the UK
- 40% of the UK does not have such an area, as it is unparished
- (thoughts on how to fix it)
The above both is, and is not, true (real life is usually a bit more complicated than that) but it was the best that I could manage & wanted to get the debate kicked off. In addition, some later spreadsheet-work (see bottom) indicates that it is more like 60% for the nations’ cities, and 100% for all the major conurbations. Now for the methodology of acquiring, plus full results that led to, the 40% claim…
A site maintained by The Maarssen Mapper contains a page of all UK Civil Parishes in the form of GPX file downloads. The top of each file has an XML header that looks like this (this one is Birchgrove_Community):—
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<gpx version="1.1" creator="Colin Smale (colin.smale@xs4all.nl)" xmlns="http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/1">

<HECTARES> is the important item in this header (the acreage of the area), although <FILE_NAME> is also used in the code below, as that helps group all the parishes by District, etc (“admin_level=8”).
Although this is a page of Civil Parishes, being Britain, there are also a large number of Unnamed Shapes. These are the Black Holes of the Boundary world, the Unparished Areas. Those files’ Headers are similar in almost all respects to the ordinary CPs. Importantly for ourselves, they contain both <HECTARES> & <FILE_NAME>.
I created a directory called ‘cps’ which contained all CP files, and another called ‘cps_un’. All Unnamed Shapes were extracted from ‘/cps’ and placed into ‘/cps_un’. The awk command (below) is using a space as a word-splitter, so it is important that <FILE_NAME> does NOT contain any spaces. Naturally, some files did in both dirs. The following command was used to discover them, then the header edited:
egrep -li "<FILE_NAME>.*[ ]+" JOSM/parishes/cps_un/*
The final item is that xml_grep is installed under Debian/Ubuntu as part of the xml-twig-tools package.
The following command-line script was built (testing all the way) to show unit & combined acreage for both sets of files:—
xml_grep
--text_only
--root HECTARES
--root FILE_NAME
--wrap JOSM/parishes/cps/* |
paste -d " " - - |
awk '
{ sum[$1] += $2; TOT += $2; NUM += 1 }
END
{
AVG=TOT/NUM;
for (k in sum) { printf("%s: %d\n", k, sum[k]) }
printf("ZZ %d Parishes; Total area=%d hectares; Average/Parish=%d \n", NUM, TOT, AVG)
}
' |
sort
(I’ve broken it down into sections, but it was used as a single line)
(being able to easily construct the above is one of the values of Linux)
The identical command was used on both directories, changing only the dir reference in the command. Here are the results:

There are parishes in North East Lincolnshire - I added them from the only reliable and licence-compatible source we have, OS Boundary Line open data.

Hi @chillly
The data on this page is all drawn from the same source, OS Boundary Line open data released 21/03/2016.
I’ve put all the info into a spreadsheet to make it possible to pull out different views. I’m happy to release that spreadsheet to anybody that will be able to put it up for open download.
The info for NE Lincs is 79% Parished, 21% unparished.

I’ve just added the data slice for the Population cores of Britain. The average is 58% unparished, but even that hides the fact that most of the large cities in Britain are 100% unparished and thus, I assert, have utterly poor LSN because of it.
