Tower Hamlets (disambiguation)Tower Hamlets – I'm not convinced that the Metropolitan borough is the primary topic. I would suggest there is an equal split between the historic liberty, the borough and the Parliamentary constituency. While the borough is what most people think of when "Tower Hamlets" is mentioned today, the name and history goes back centuries, far beyond the scope of that article. A quick Google Books search shows contemporary references to the borough, and historic references to the militia and the parliamentary seat.

Does it make sense to when the name pre-dates its modern designation (and is covered by multiple sources) by hundreds of years? Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 21:47, 24 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
