Flower Delivery to North Yorkshire with Clare Florist

North Yorkshire is the largest county in England and one of four counties of Yorkshire. Among those four, it is the most beautiful thanks to being able to survive almost unscathed by the Industrial Revolution, unlike the rest of northern England.

Since the Middle Ages, North Yorkshire has maintained a rural quality and is almost entirely about sheep and the wool they produce.

Going through North Yorkshire, one can see stately artificial monuments – great houses and wealthy abbeys – rather than closed-down factories, mills and mines. Although these monuments may be in ruined or in a restored state, they serve as a reminder that making wool was capable of producing such riches.

Although rural in nature, the biggest attraction in North Yorkshire is an urban one. York is one of the most-visited cities outside London and its splendour has no match. There are other highlights of course such as the genteel spa town of Harrowgate and the seaside resorts of Scarborough and Whitby, but none can compare to the beauty that is York.

If places with both a rural and urban appeal are your kind of holiday, then it makes sense to head to North Yorkshire and enjoy its many delights.

HISTORY

Formed on 1 April 1974 as a result of Local Government Act 1972, North Yorkshire covers most of the lands of the historic North Riding. Also included are the northern half of the West Riding, the northern and eastern fringes of the East Riding of Yorkshire and the former county borough of York.

On 1 April 1996, York became a unitary authority independent of North Yorkshire. At the same time, Middlesbrough, Redcar and Cleveland, as well as areas of Stockton-on-Tees south of the river became part of North Yorkshire for ceremonial purposes.
