 | | South and West Yorkshire have been traditionally defined by their industrial base, and much of the material in the Archive from that area features industrial subjects such as steel, mining and textiles. |
 | | In North Yorkshire cities and towns such as York, Ripon and Harrogate are featured, however, the majority of North Yorkshire has a rural base and much of the material for this part of the region covers rural and agricultural life in the areas of the Yorkshire Dales and North York Moors. |
 | | Yorkshire was also the base for pioneering film production centres such as The Sheffield Photo Company, Bamforth and Co. based in Holmfirth, the Riley Brothers, Pyramid Films and the Captain Kettle company, all based in Bradford. |
