Royal Borough
Although several English boroughs sometimes are called "royal", there are actually only three boroughs that have legal right to the title "Royal Borough": Kensington and Chelsea, Kingston upon Thames, and Windsor and Maidenhead. They all received this honorary title during or shortly after the reign of Queen Victoria to signify that they had a special standing with the royal family:
- Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea - title originally given to Kensington in 1901, fulfilling a wish by Queen Victoria to honour her birthplace.
- Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames
- Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead
