I didn't miss it Douglas - I still do
Stutcliff (the infamoous one, Peter, not the photographer), pudding, all this belongs to the history of the county too. 

Nice set of photographs on your site - I'll be back to it later.
Thanks for sharing

Flavio, Philippe,
you missed the BEST part - the County of Yorkshire - mountains (at least very high hills :-) ) rolling plains, high cliffs and long beaches on the coast, the best beers in the UK. 

The landscapes vary from wild and desolate to luxuriant green.
Historical cities like York, where Constantine was devlared Emperor in AD 306. 

Many castles, monasteries, cathedrals.
Home of the Bronte sisters, Captain Cook and Dracula (yes, Yorkshire, not Transylvania - the story starts in the coastal town of Whitby) 

The birthplace of the industrial revolution and the railways.

Here are a few impressions of Englands largest county:

Cheers from a Yorkshireman in exile.
