Schools in Yorkshire
North Yorkshire England's largest county covering 3,212
square miles which includes part of the Pennines, the Vale of York,
the Cleveland Hills and the North Yorkshire Moors.
The administration centre of the county is to be found in the town
of Northallerton, the famous ancient city of York, the resorts of
Harrogate, Scarborough and Whitby are just a few more of the main
locations in the county.
With a population of just over 700,000 most of North Yorkshire
is moorland. This provides the perfect terrain for the traditional
agricultural pursuit of Sheep farming although cereal crops, coal
mining, dairy production and electrical goods all contribute to
the county's coffers. In the boom years Wool from Yorkshire was
on a par with Cotton from Lancashire as Britain's biggest export
revenue earner. Those days are gone now and the newer industries
are taking more of a hold.
The famous cathedral of York Minster is just one of many fine examples
of English architecture to be found in this vast county.
Includes places like: North Riding Northallerton,
Middlesbrough, Scarborough, Whitby East Riding Beverley, Hull, Bridlington,
Driffield, Hornsea, Filey West Riding Wakefield, Leeds, Sheffield,
Bradford, Halifax, Harrogate York within the Walls
