Much of the county proper is administered by two unitary authorities. Shropshire Council (although the traditional county is legally distinct from the council area), which covers by far the largest area, and Telford and Wrekin Council, whose area is smaller but more densely populated.
Much of the county proper is administered by two unitary authorities. [[Shropshire Council]] (although the traditional county is legally distinct from the council area), which covers by far the largest area, and [[Telford and Wrekin Council]], whose area is smaller but more densely populated.
There is a county for the purposes of lieutenancy called Shropshire, comprising the two unitary authority areas above, with similar (but not identical) boundaries to the county proper (from which it is also legally distinct). Both the council area and the county for the purposes of lieutenancy in which "Shropshire" features in the name contain small areas of Cheshire, Herefordshire and Staffordshire, whilst a small area of Shropshire (namely the village of Heath) is under Hereford Council.
