It’s Yorkshire Day on Sunday and we’ll obviously be celebrating at Mortimer Chadwick Gray with lashings of Yorkshire Tea, Yorkshire pudding, parkin, balti, rhubarb and Tetley’s bitter.

We have plenty to be proud of in Yorkshire, but then the same could be said of many counties in the UK each with their own identity, traditions, regional specialities and sites of historical interest. So why do so few of them have a county day? Just Yorkshire and Lancashire according to my research, but they only wanted one because we had one first.
