The structure which extends from Wales through the English Midlands and east Anglia to the Low Countries has clearly been known by a variety of names over the years including the following:
The following two terms have been used for the eastern part of this structure as in the current article:
Question is whether the larger structure deserves a separate article or whether this article is expanded to include both the lesser and the greater structure. The latter is most often encountered in the literature under the term 'Wales-London-Brabant Massif' and I'd suggest that it be placed there with the other names redirecting to it. I'd welcome comment though.
The London-Brabant Massif or London-Brabant Platform is in the tectonic structure of Europe a structural high or massif that stretches from the Rhineland in western Germany across southern Netherlands, northern Belgium, and the North Sea to the sites of East Anglia and the middle Thames in southern England. The Midlands Craton (southeastern Wales and part of western England) is often considered part of the massif and to reflect this the names Wales-Brabant Massif or Wales-Brabant High are sometimes used.
In a previous revision of the page (on 19:20, 5 April 2010 by 85.145.213.213), the term low countries was erroneously translated as Netherlands. However, the anticline structure of the Brabant massif is only present at great depth under the southern Netherlands where it does not crop out. At the contrary, the Brabant massif is well present under the north and the central parts of Belgium where outcrops exist in the province of Brabant. So, it would be better advised to replace Netherlands by Belgium also a low country in its northern part.

This sounds unintentionally amusing, given that we're talking about events that happened millions of years ago:
"To the north, economically important things were happening."
