England’s Regions and Counties — a note

Comparison

⚠ A WARNING ROW. English food geography runs on HISTORIC COUNTIES that are older than the food traditions attached to them and do not match the modern administrative map. Yorkshire, Cumberland, Westmorland, Middlesex and Huntingdonshire are food regions and are not current administrative units; ceremonial counties, unitary authorities and the nine statistical regions are three further and different divisions again. This corpus binds to canonical modern geography and records the historic county as the CULTURAL unit, because that is what a Cumberland sausage or a Yorkshire pudding actually refers to.
