They call Yorkshire God's own country. This is because England's
biggest county is also England's most epic and most historically
exciting. It has everything: unimaginably beautiful countryside,
derelict castles, cliff-hugging coastlines, brutally bleak moors,
quirkily quaint villages, wondrously winding waterways and
industrial monsters of cities. Many of the most interesting
episodes in English history have happened here: the Wars of the
Roses, the English Civil War, the birth of the industrial
revolution, the rise of the Labour movement. But when people think
of Yorkshire they also think of the unusual and the unsung: Bettys
delightful tea rooms, cricket at Scarborough, the windswept steps
of Whitby Abbey, the steam railway of the Railway Children, Mother
Shipton's Cave, and racing at Doncaster and York. Yorkshire has
also given birth to some of the greatest and most talented figures
in English history: Brian Clough, Harold Wilson, John Wycliffe,
William Wilberforce, the Bronte Sisters, David Hockney and Barbara
Hepworth.
