Boundaries
Broxtowe constituency is a suburban constituency located in Nottinghamshire, to the west of the city of Nottingham, almost identical in character to the seat of Gedling to the east of Nottingham.
The boundaries are the same as those of Broxtowe Borough Council, with the exception of the wards of Brinsley, Eastwood East, Eastwood North and Eastwood South. The original Broxtowe also contained the towns of Hucknall and Kirkby in Ashfield, but not Beeston, which was part of the Rushcliffe constituency.

Famous quotes containing the word boundaries:

—Albert Camus (1913–1960)

In this fresh, breezy atmosphere ... we will be surprised to find that many of our familiar old conventional truths look very queer indeed in some of the sudden side lights thrown upon them.”
—Bertha Honore Potter Palmer (1849–1918)
“We love to overlook the boundaries which we do not wish to pass.”
