Facts and Information about North Yorkshire
The following Information has been provided by Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
North Yorkshire is a county within the region of Yorkshire and
the Humber in England. It is divided into the districts of
Craven, Hambleton, Harrogate, Richmondshire, Ryedale, Scarborough
and Selby.
Contained within its boundaries are the North York Moors and
most of the Yorkshire Dales, two of eleven areas of countryside
within England and Wales to be officially designated as a
National park.
The county was formed in 1974, and covers most of the lands of
the traditional North Riding, as well as the northern half of the
West Riding and the northern and eastern fringes of the
traditional East Riding. York became a unitary authority
independent of North Yorkshire on April 1, 1996, and at the same
time Middlesbrough, Redcar and Cleveland and Stockton-on-Tees
south of the river became part of North Yorkshire for ceremonial
purposes, having been part of Cleveland from 1974 to 1996, and
the North Riding before.
The ceremonial county borders those of East Riding of
Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, West Yorkshire, Lancashire, Cumbria
and Durham.
