There are many urban villages in London, some old, some newer like West Ealing, where there is a good community site run by local residents. West Ealing Neighbours is run by a residents association who aim to stick up for their patch. So like a traditional RA there is a constitution of sorts. As well as over 200 news articles, the site has covered specific campaigns, such as the West London Tram. And a handy little forum. For the technically minded it has a set of how to documents.
