Happy North Riding day to you as well Lion.

I was born just inside the North Riding, in a quaint little city called Ripon.

I know Ripon well. The seat of the diocese until the recent relocation to Leeds and the only city in Yorkshire without a Rugby League team.

You must've lived on the far side of the River Ure from the city centre.

Ripon is lovely. I'm almost in the old North Riding bit - just slightly the wrong side of the river!

See my post to Lion, I was wrong side of the river too. I live in Boroughbridge now but still work in Ripon

Ooops, I stand corrected then. I always thought Ripon was in the North Riding, but the vast majority of it is South of the Ure. I lived roughly 3/4 of a mile south of the City Centre.

Oh well, roll on West Riding day!

As a resident of Ayrshire, I have a natural affinity with any other areas that include only three out of four compass directions, for no good reason. South Riding is presumably somewhere near West Ayrshire.
