Notes on the North Yorkshire grouping
(1) Although Cotherstone and Romaldkirk are now in County Durham, before boundary changes (and at the time of the First World War) they were in the North Riding of Yorkshire.
The area defined by "North Yorkshire" is that as found when searching for a place name using Memory Map software incorporating the 1 : 50,000 Ordnance Survey map of Great Britain. The found place names may previously have been in the North Riding of Yorkshire, as shown in the list on the GENUKI website, but not necessarily so.
There are some anomalous place names included in "North Yorkshire". Some examples are shown below:
- Middlesbrough was originally in the North Riding of Yorkshire but is now a unitary authority.
- Cotherstone and Romaldkirk are a few of the villages that used to be in the North Riding of Yorkshire but, after county boundary changes, were moved to County Durham. On this website, they are included in the "North Yorkshire" grouping.
The original website used Memory Map and GENUKI in defining and explaining this grouping.
