Geography:
Yesterday’s task was tricky – especially with some historic counties being divided over time. For example, Yorkshire is a historic county which, due to it massive size, was divided into the counties of North Yorkshire, West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire and East Riding of Yorkshire.
Also, the counties of major cities can be confusing. For example, the City of London is found in the county of “Greater London” and Manchester is found in the county of “Greater Manchester” – whilst Liverpool is found in the county of “Merseyside”, Bristol’s county is simply called “Bristol” and, most confusingly, Birmingham is found in the county of “West Midlands”. The West Midlands is also the name for the larger region in which the counties of Herefordshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, Wawickshire, West Midlands (county) and Worcestershire can be found.
Here’s a map of the geographic (or “ceremonial”) counties of England:

Some of the county names have been shortened so that they fit. The easiest way to tell if a name has been shortened on a map is that a full stop is put after the name. Here’s a list of the full names of those that have been shortened:
– South Yorks. = South Yorkshire
– Derbs. = Derbyshire
– Notts. = Nottinghamshire
– Heref. = Herefordshire
– Worcs = Worcestershire
– Oxon. = Oxfordshire
– Warks. = Warwickshire
– Staffs. = Staffordshire
– Greater Manc. = Greater Manchester
– Leics. = Leicestershire
– Cambs. = Cambridgeshire
– Bucks. = Buckinghamshire
– Beds. = Bedfordshire
– Herts. = Hertfordshire
– Glos. = Gloucestershire
– Northants. = Northamptonshire
