There are also three Land Divisions, around 100 Land Districts, and several other types of districts as well as land boards used at various periods. There were also thirteen hundreds proclaimed in Cumberland County, which were later abolished. These divisions are part of the Lands administrative divisions of Australia. Unlike the Local Government Areas of New South Wales, which have gone through restructuring periods by the government, the counties have been the same since the nineteenth century.
