I thought it would be useful for others to see what might happen to the Leeds constituencies in the ongoing boundary review. There are some quite substantial changes.

This is wrong.
I'm trying to work out the electoral history of East Molesey but I'm having some trouble working out what constituencies it has belonged to.
So far I've got:
| Period | Constituency |
|---|---|
| 1997 - Present | [Esher and Walton](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esher_and_Walton_(UK_Parliament_constituency)) |
| 1950 - 1997 | [Esher](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esher_(UK_Parliament_constituency)) |
| 1918 - 1950 | [Chertsey](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chertsey_(UK_Parliament_constituency)) |
| 1885 - 1918 | [Epsom](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epsom_(UK_Parliament_constituency)) |
| 1832 - 1885 | [West Surrey](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Surrey_(UK_Parliament_constituency)) |
| 1707 - 1832 | [Surrey](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surrey_(UK_Parliament_constituency)) |
From what I can tell, East and West Molesey was included in the Esher Urban District, created and added to the Esher constituency in 1983.
Does anyone know what was going on between 1950 and 1983?
East and West Molesey was removed from the Chertsey constituency in 1950 following the 1947 Boundary Commissions review.
It was included in the Esher Urban District in 1950, part of the Esher constituency. In 1974, the Esher Urban District was dissolved, and East and West Molesey became part of the Elmbridge Wards. This was still part of the Esher constituency until its dissolution in 1997.
Our research lab, Geographic Insights, based at the Harvard Center for Population and Development Studies released the first and only dashboard on COVID-19 metrics for parliamentary constituencies to let parliament officials see the change in new COVID-19 cases and deaths over time for their PC.
You can access the dashboard through our lab’s website here: https://geographicinsights.iq.harvard.edu/covidindiapc. It is best viewed on a desktop or computer.
Let me know if you have any questions!
