Bournemouth is a unitary authority so is not covered by Dorset County

Within easy living memory, Bournemouth was a shire district in
Hampshire. Then it was swapped to the same status within Dorset, then
to unitary status.


No it wasn't. It was a County Borough before 1974.


Was it not in Hampshire?


Insofar as any County Borough then or Unitary now is in a county, yes.
