I am pondering a similar but simpler question. I would like to add a table
listing each authority at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:prow_ref
describing the conventions used.
With a subpage if there is a lot of info such as Toby's list for Lancashire

I have added the first prow_ref for Bromley (outer london and not OGL). As
there are no parishes, I have adopted the same convention as Croydon which
is  *LB Bromley FP 120B*
