City of London, city of London
- City of London, city of London
They are separate things. The City of London, often referred to simply as "the City," is an area of 677 acres, or about a square mile, in the east-central part of greater London. Historically and administratively it is quite separate from the great metropolis to which it gave its name. Occasionally this can be a source of confusion-for instance, when distinguishing between investigations of the
London police and the City of London police. The City is London's financial district and is sometimes informally referred to as the Square Mile.
