  • The West Riding of Yorkshire was one of the three historic subdivisions of Yorkshire, England. From 1889 to 1974 the administrative county, County of York, West Riding (the area under the control of West Riding County Council), was based closely on the historic boundaries. The lieutenancy at that time included the City of York and as such was named West Riding of the County of York, and the City and County of the City of York. Its boundaries roughly correspond to the current counties of West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire and the Craven, Harrogate and Selby districts of North Yorkshire, along with some smaller parts in Lancashire, Cumbria, Greater Manchester and, since 1996, the unitary East Riding of Yorkshire.
  • Das West Riding of Yorkshire ist eines der drei ehemaligen Verwaltungsgebiete der traditionellen Grafschaft Yorkshire in England. Die Grafschaft Yorkshire war in drei Gebiete, sog. Ridings (aus dem altnorwegischen þriðing, "dritter Teil", ein Erbe der skandinavischen Siedler des neunten Jahrhunderts) aufgeteilt: Neben dem West Riding waren dies East Riding of Yorkshire und North Riding of Yorkshire. Nachdem 1888 die traditionellen Grafschaften durch die Verwaltungsgrafschaften ersetzt wurden, wurden die drei Ridings zu eigenständigen Verwaltungsgrafschaften. Diesen Status behielt das West Riding of Yorkshire bis zum Jahre 1974. Dann wurde das Kerngebiet des West Ridings in das neue Metropolitan County West Yorkshire umgewandelt. Die südlichen Teile kamen zum ebenfalls neu gebildeten Metropolitan County South Yorkshire; die Distrikte Craven und Harrogate zur Grafschaft North Yorkshire. Kleine Gebietsteile wurden den Grafschaften Lancashire, Cumbria, Greater Manchester und East Riding of Yorkshire zugeordnet. Bis zu seiner Auflösung hatte das West Riding eine Fläche von 7.169 km². Zu seinem Gebiet gehörten die u.a. Städte Barnsley, Batley, Bradford, Brighouse, Dewsbury, Doncaster, Halifax, Harrogate, Huddersfield, Keighley, Leeds, Morley, Ossett, Pontefract, Pudsey, Ripon, Rotherham, Sheffield, Todmorden und Wakefield.
  • Il West Riding of Yorkshire è una delle tre suddivisioni storiche dello Yorkshire, in Inghilterra, insieme all'East e North Riding. La suddivisione amministrativa fu fondata nel 1889 e aveva sede a Wakefield. Nel 1974 furono cancellate sia la suddivisione amministrativa che l'area di Luogotenenza corrispondenti ai confini del Riding, al posto della quale furono istituite le contee del West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, North Yorkshire, Lancashire, Cumbria, Greater Manchester e Humberside.
  • West Riding of Yorkshire er en av de tre historiske delene av Yorkshire i England. Fra 1889 til 1974 var det et administrativt grevskap, offisielt kjent som County of York, West Riding. Stattholderområdet inkluderte da City of York, og ble kalt West Riding of the County of York, and the City and County of the City of York. Området dekket omtrent det som har blitt West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, Craven, Harrogate og Selby i North Yorkshire samt noen mindre deler av Lancashire, Stor-Manchester og East Riding of Yorkshire.
  • West Riding of Yorkshire, ofta kallat bara West Riding, är ett historiskt distrikt i England, Storbritannien som ungefär motsvarar nuvarande West Yorkshire och South Yorkshire samt större delen av distrikten Craven, Harrogate och Selby i North Yorkshire. Ordet riding har fornnordiskt ursprung och syftar på något som är tredelat. I det här fallet handlar det om en uppdelning av Yorkshire i West Riding, East Riding och North Riding of Yorkshire.
