Outlying

The more outlying villages were never visited by their member of parliament.

During the first year or so of British Railways, some of the simpler and more obvious inter-regional transfers of outlying sections were effected, such as those of the London, Tilbury & Southend Railway from the London Midland Region to the Eastern Region; the South Wales lines of the former L.M.S.R. to the Western Region; the Carlisle-Silloth branch (an L.N.E.R. legacy of a North British "border raid") to the London Midland, and so on.

Lorries collect the milk from the various outlying farms, whence it is taken to the district distribution centre to undergo pasteurisation.

The causeways were laid as hard paths for heavily laden pack-animals bringing in wool from outlying hamlets and farms.

When the map was redrawn after the war, our cousin found herself living in outlying territory.

The other areas and the outlyings will have to come in at a later date, although the council wrestles with that periodically. But the amount of money involved would be substantial.
