Line 1:
Line 1: − '''Humberside''' was a former county of [[England]] created in 1974 and dissolved in 1996; it incorporated territory taken from [[Lincolnshire]] south of the [[River Humber]] and [[Yorkshire]] north of the river. The county town was [[Beverley]].+ − − The new county was never able to attract the loyalty or affection of its inhabitants (who had strong ties to their respective former counties) and even the opening of the [[Humber Bridge]] in 1981 - the main link between the northern and southern parts of the county - failed to bind it closer together. In 1996 the county was abolished and its territory divided between the new unitary authorities of [[Kingston upon Hull]], [[East Riding of Yorkshire]], [[North Lincolnshire]] and [[North East Lincolnshire]]. The name Humberside, and its operational boundaries, are still used by organisations such as Humberside Police. − − [[Category:United Kingdom Counties]]
