Parts of Yorkshire now in County Durham, Cumbria, and Tees Valley


This page is under construction and incomplete.

Startforth Rural District (formed in 1894) was part of the North Riding of Yorkshire and included parts of what had been the Wapentake of Gilling West (including Romaldkirk and Starforth). Under the local government reorganisation of 1974, Startforth Rural District was abolished and formed part of the Teesdale district of County Durham. The local government regorganisation of 1974 also saw the creation of the county of Cleveland, which incorporated parts of North Yorkshire and County Durham. When Cleveland was abolished in 1996, it was replaced by unitary authorities (Darlingrton, Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, Redcar and Cleveland, Stockton-on-Tees). The latter 3 of which include settlements in both the cermonial counties of North Yorkshire and County Durham. These unitary authorities now form Tees Valley. 

Parts of West Ridng were transfered to the newly formed county of Cumbria in 1974.
