 GENUKI: A description of the North Riding of Yorkshire, 1890: Part 0.
Each Riding has a separate Lieutenancy, Magistracy, Clerk of the Peace, Treasurer, and other public officers and courts; but all of them are amenable to the superior courts held for the whole shire at York Castle, within the bounds of the city of York, which is also a county of itself.
The North Riding, which more immediately concerns us in the present volume, occupies the northern portion of the county, extending from the river Tees, which separates it from Durham, almost to the walls of York, and from the borders of Westmoreland to the shore of the German Ocean.
In the north of this Oolitic plateau are the Cleveland Hills, which have become famous in recent years through the discovery of immense deposits of iron ore. The most remarkable eminence in the group is Roseberry Topping, which rises like a sugar loaf to the height of 1,022 feet.

 Riding - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the riding as a unit of local government and as an electoral district; for usage of the more common homonym, a form of the verb to ride, see equestrianism and related articles such as riding animal.
According to the 12th-century compilation known as the laws of Edward the Confessor, the riding was the third part of a county (provincia); to it causes were brought which could not be determined in the wapentake, and a matter which could not be determined in the riding was brought into the court of the shire.
Ridings existed in rural New Zealand until the popularisation of the automobile with the improvement of roads, and the concurrent urban drift.

 The Motorway Archive. Trunk Road A1 in the North Riding of Yorkshire. Introduction   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
In the Highways and Bridges Department of the North Riding County Council the construction of roads during the period in question was done very differently to that in the West Riding being largely undertaken by the council's own workforce.
Eventually the North Riding became the first county in England through which the Great North Road, A1 passed to provide dual carriageways on this road throughout the length of the county.
The work to be carried out by the North Riding County Council on the Great North road would then be complete, for the Darlington By-pass will commence at Kneeton Corner and that work is to be undertaken by the Durham County Council.

North Riding Point Club has access to the best bonefishing flats on both the north and south shores of Grand Bahama.
The north shore of Grand Bahama has the largest bonefish habitat, comprising several hundred square miles of flats, inlets, and mangrove-covered cays literally teeming with large, wild bonefish.
There are so many fish spread over such a large expanse of territory that the fish do not receive much fishing pressure, and as a result, they do not easily spook and they readily take flies.

 The 17th Century: The North Riding   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
After New Netherlands was conquered by the English and named New York in honor of the Duke of York, the territory was divided into "shires" as in England.
Thus, the New York area became Yorkshire and was partitioned into three "Ridings." The east end of Long Island was called the "East Riding", and Kings County, Staten Island and Newtown (Astoria) "West Riding." All of the land between these, which included Cow Neck, was "North Riding".
The first Colonial Assembly met in 1683 in New York City, and in that same year seventeen representatives of the people along with Governor Dongan formed the county of Queens (which abolished the North Riding) and included Cow Neck and part of the town of Hempstead.
