Welcome to Yorkshire — England’s biggest county, where dales meet mills and the M62 keeps Leeds and Manchester firmly connected. With over 5 million residents who know the shortcut past Ilkley Moor better than any sat‑nav, Yorkshire blends rugged landscapes with urban buzz.

Schools That Actually Impress

King James’s in Knaresborough, Fulneck School in Pudsey, and Queen Ethelburga’s (the independent heavyweight) all carry strong reputations. Translation: your kids will get a solid education, and you’ll have plenty of parents comparing exam results at the school gates.

Economy With a Balance

Yorkshire’s economy mixes manufacturing, retail, and tourism with growing finance and tech hubs in Leeds and Sheffield. Add in commuters heading across the Pennines, and you’ve got a county that’s practical, connected, and quietly thriving.

Things to Do (Besides Timing the M62 Traffic)

• York Minster – gothic splendour towering above the historic city.

• Yorkshire Dales National Park – rolling hills, stone walls, and endless walking trails.

• Local favourites – Leeds United for matchday buzz, Whitby fish & chips for seaside flavour, and moorland walks for fresh air and photo ops.

Moving Services That Keep It Simple

At M&G, we can’t fix the M62 bottleneck, but we can make moving day a whole lot easier:

• Full packing services

• Secure, insured storage (ideal if your chain moves slower than traffic at Junction 27)

• Local, national, European & overseas moves (because sometimes Yorkshire is just a stepping stone to Yokohama )
