Comfortably NumbHozza We've had this before, isn't Middlesbrough technically within Yorkshire.
yes, east.
But if we're going to get pernickety about this it was actually in the North Riding of Yorkshire, before becoming the county town of the County Borough of Teesside which was the absorbed into Cleveland in 74. Cleveland was then abolished in the mid-90's, and Middlesbrough became a unitary authority in it's own right. It is within the ceremonial county of North Yorkshire.
Yorkshire? Nah, it doesn't suit my point.
