The City of London (i.e., the original ″Square Mile″) was geographically located within Middlesex (and was bounded by the hundred of Ossulstone to the west, north and east) but was essentially independent of the county for most purposes.

See also List of civil parishes in the County of London in 1891. The list should be comprehensive.
