In Living Atlas there is a very useful UK feature layer provided by
ESRI called OS Open Boundary-Line, which gives county and electoral
boundary lines (wards, divisions, constituencies, etc). However the
Polling District boundaries (for Farnham at least) are out of date -
the border changed for the May 2023 local election, but the Polling
District layer is still showing the old Polling District Boundary. It
shows it going down Bear Lane for example, but it now goes down St
Cross Road (and has done since the May 2023 election). I realise this
information comes from the Electoral Services department, possibly via
the Office for National Statistics, and Ordnance Survey - but when
will it be updated?

Thanks. I did as you suggested. Yes I have looked at the latest (OS Data Hub) version and it is still wrong (out of date). So I will need to take it up with OS.

The OS Open Boundary dataset is available directly, like a number of other products, from the OS Open Data site. Updates are published twice a year - May and October.

Either you use this directly and, if still wrong, contact the OS or raise a ticket with ESRI support asking for an update to be published (once you've checked the OS Boundary Line from OS)
