In which country is the Humber Bridge located?

Being from Toronto, I should know Humber is near York UK. So many names around Toronto are from York. We used to be York before we became Toronto.

Player Bengal Mama, All the parts of Yorkshire used to be called "Ridings" It comes from the time when this part of the UK was settled by the Vikings. It was "thriding" a term in Old Norse that meant "a third part" It is usually just called "The East Riding", because there are no other counties called a Riding.

Player en_846, York is a city in North Yorkshire, UK. Humber is actually the "River Humber" it runs between the East Riding of Yorkshire and North Lincolnshire, So, not even in the same county. Yorkshire is a big county, it's divided into four "Shires" South Yorkshire, North Yorkshire, West Yorkshire and The East Riding of Yorkshire. By the way, all counties of the UK that end in "Shire" are pronounced "sher"

when the bridge opened in 1981 the charge was £1.00 and remained at that charge for quite a number of years. I was driving over it yesterday. It is a beautiful site.

Player en_846, I live in York Pennsylvania 😊

Why are certain areas called a riding?

Player en_846, And I'm not far away from you in "New" York.

They got me with one of those European questions... I guessed wrong.
