I created an entry in the MMI ORR for the area types vocabulary:
    http://mmisw.org/ont/cf/areatype

Click on the "Individuals" drop-down at the bottom to see a table of the 
individual area names.

Jonathan, I did this rather fast (and without asking you first ;->), so all 
input from you is especially welcome.

John
