Local government in Lancashire is the responsibility of 21 different council areas, which cover different areas of the historic county and, in some cases, parts of other counties too. A geographically large area of the county is served by [[Lancashire County Council]], although this serves the [[Forest of Bowland]] in Yorkshire as well and excludes more than half of the county's population. The council areas covering areas of Lancashire alone are [[Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council]], [[Blackpool Council]], [[Bolton Council]], [[Bury Council]], [[Knowsley Council]], [[Liverpool City Council]], [[Rochdale Borough Council]], [[Sefton Council]], [[St Helens Council]] and [[Wigan Council]]. The Furness peninsula in the county's far north is administered by [[Westmorland and Furness Council]], which also covers the county [[Westmorland]] and part of [[Cumberland]].
