The
City of London Police is the
territorial police force responsible for law enforcement within the
City of London, including the
Middle and
Inner Temples. The force responsible for law enforcement within the remainder of
Greater London, outside of the City, is the
Metropolitan Police Service, a separate organisation. The City of London, which is now primarily a financial business district with a small resident population but a large commuting workforce, is the historic core of London, and has an administrative history distinct from that of the rest of the metropolis, of which its
separate police force is one manifestation.
