Our counties don't have capitals as such, but county towns, which are the administrative centres. Also, we don't really learn these so I see why everyone in the comments is like, what? I was like that with East Sussex, I thought it should be Brighton, looked it up and it is Lewes!

I thought Matlock was the county town of Derbyshire, it used to be Derby but that is now a unitary authority, separate from the county council. Same for Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire they both became unitary authorities, and the county councils are located just outside of the cities in West Bridgford and Glenfield, but I guess as they have a post town of Nottingham and Leicester

As someone from North Yorkshire I’m almost certain our capital is York
@CountriesCapitals5 жыл бұрын
I understand the confusion. Before Yorkshire was divided into four counties: North, South, East and West in 1974 the capital of Yorkshire was York. York however is located in North Yorkshire but the official county capital is Northallerton. I was confused as well when I read it. I hoped I helped you out with this answer. If you have other questions just ask and if you want to read more about North Yorkshire here is a link for you: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Yorkshire#Towns_and_villages Cheers

The county towns have names from the principal cities and sound right like Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Warwickshire, Staffordshire, Worcestershire, Herefordshire, Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Oxfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Gloucestershire, Buckinghamshire. But Durhamshire does not sound right, Chestershire is Cheshire, Lancastershire is Lancashire, Wiltonshire is Wiltshire, Dorchestershire is Dorset. Imagine Norfolk as Norwichshire, Suffolk as Ipswichshire, Essex as Colchestershire, Kent as Canterburyshire, Sussex as Brightonshire, Devon as Exetershire, Cornwall as Truroshire, Cumbria as Carlisleshire, Northumberland as Newcastleshire, Surrey as Guildfordshire. Northamptonshire sounds right but not Southamptonshire for Hampshire, and Shrewsburyshire for Shropshire. Buckingham is only a small town for Buckinghamshire, what about Berkshire as Readingshire, no place called Berkeley there. Wiltshire must get its name from Wilton, but Salisbury is the biggest place (Salisburyshire), as in Somerset I can think of Somerton, but imagine Bathshire.

@PiousMoltar5 жыл бұрын
York is now a unitary authority, which means it is not under the authority of North Yorkshire county council, so it wouldn't make much sense for their admin to be based there :P However, other unitary authorities, for example Nottingham, are still considered the "county town", although the county council is based across the river in West Bridgford, so surely that is more accurately the "capital" of Nottinghamshire now? It's confusing.
