Yorkshire /ˈjɔːkʃə/ es un condado histórico del Norte de Inglaterra, el de mayor extensión en el Reino Unido con casi 11 903 km² de superficie y una población cercana a los cinco millones de habitantes. Varias reorganizaciones de la administración local inglesa, especialmente la del año 1974, han hecho que Yorkshire ya no tenga entidad legal ni administrativa, aunque los habitantes de esta región guardan aún un afecto particular por ella, y muchos de ellos continúan llamándose a sí mismos 'Yorkshireman / Yorkshirewoman'. Sigue existiendo el famoso . El nombre de Yorkshire (es decir, shire o condado de York) persiste en los nombres de tres condados nuevos, creados en 1974, a saber: Yorkshire del Norte, Yorkshire del Sur, y Yorkshire del Oeste. Desde que en 1986 se aboliera la administración por concejos de condados, Yorkshire del Sur y Yorkshire del Oeste han pasado a llamarse oficialmente metropolitan districts (distritos metropolitanos) y son parte de la región de Yorkshire and the Humber, una región que originalmente se llamaba e incluía los condados de Yorkshire del Norte, Yorkshire del Oeste, Yorkshire del Sur y . Con la reforma de 1986 Humberside se subdividió, se abolieron los condados de Yorkshire del Oeste y Yorkshire del Sur y se diferenció a York desde North Yorkshire. De ahí surgió esta nueva subdivisión administrativa con nuevas denominaciones. Sin embargo, las antiguas continúan siendo utilizadas de manera ocasional tanto en el uso coloquial, como particularmente con fines ceremoniales, donde se les designa como condados (ceremonial county). El símbolo del condado es una rosa blanca, originalmente el símbolo del Casa de York. Existe también el distrito El Riding del Este de Yorkshire - "Riding" es versión moderna de la antiquísima palabra "thirding" (en la Edad Media Yorkshire fue dividido en tres partes, "thirds") - y la región "Yorkshire y el Humber" - "El Humber" es la ría que separa Yorkshire de Lincolnshire. En 2010, se han adoptado nuevas resoluciones sobre reorganización administrativa que afectarán a la zona, las que aún se encuentran en fase de transición. Ciudades importantes de esta región incluyen: Leeds, Bradford, Sheffield, Hull y York. En cuanto a su geografía, destacan los Yorkshire Wolds, Yorkshire Dales, y North Yorkshire Moors. Dio fruto a muchos artistas en diferentes épocas, tanto solistas como grupos: Joe Cocker, Bill Nelson, Saxon, Billy Currie, ABC, The Housemartins, The Cult, The Sisters Of Mercy, New Model Army, Cabaret Voltaire, The Human League, Heaven 17, They Must Be Russians, Bring Me the Horizon, Def Leppard, Soft Cell, Pulp, Kaiser Chiefs, Arctic Monkeys, etc. Howard Devoto residió allí en su niñez y juventud, antes de formar parte de la escena punk y new wave.

Welcome to Yorkshire | Make Amazing Memories
Discover the best of Yorkshire. Find accommodation, things to do, and events.
yorkshire.com →You might remember Yorkshire.com from its former life as Welcome to Yorkshire. We're about so much more than just a fond hello now. Yorkshire.com is building a complete knowledge graph of Yorkshire — an Operating System for the region. We're not just a tourism website; we're creating a structured, queryable, and comprehensive data layer that powers discovery, planning, and connection across every corner of God's Own County. From walks and cycling routes to bus timetables and train schedules, from hotels and restaurants to events and attractions , from rivers and streams to roads and towns — if it's in Yorkshire, it's in our system. And increasingly, if it's relevant to people in Yorkshire (like London Heathrow Airport for your holiday to Malaga), we'll map it too. The best walks are often the ones in the rain — you remember them more. Like an operating system, we abstract complexity, provide APIs, enable composition, handle relationships, and scale infinitely. Our unified data model means: This unified approach means everything connects. A walk links to nearby hotels. A village links to its local bus routes. A river links to all the places it flows through. It's all one system, all one graph. On 1 March 2022, Welcome to Yorkshire Ltd, which was a Company Limited by Guarantee (a non-profit business that relied heavily on local authority funding), was placed into administration by its board. That company has since gone into liquidation. The Welcome to Yorkshire brand, website, and other assets were purchased out of administration by a group led by a local business called Silicon Dales , who wanted to preserve the brand for the benefit of the Yorkshire community. Several of these assets have been put back into operation under the Welcome to Yorkshire trademark, as part of a new limited company called Yorkshire.com (International) Ltd , which has been operating since September 2022. The new Yorkshire.com is commercially focused, technically ambitious, and built for the future. We're not reliant on public sector funding. We're building a sustainable, scalable business that serves Yorkshire's visitor economy, its residents, and anyone who wants to discover this magnificent place. We're bringing modern technology, data science, and ambitious product thinking to create something unique: a complete operating system for a place. Starting with Yorkshire , because all good things do.
