Yorkshire History

Our Yorkshire history pages primarily focus on North Yorkshire and the City of York. North Yorkshire has three distinct regions – the dales country of the Pennines to the west; the vales of Mowbray and York at its centre stretching all the way from York to the Tees and to the east the North York Moors which stretch to the coastal cliffs of the sea. Most of the rivers make their way to the Humber which forms the southern border of East Yorkshire and was once the boundary of the great Kingdom of Northumbria.
