What is Humberside?
'''Humberside''' was a non-metropolitan county of [[England]]. It existed from 1 April 1974 until 31 March 1996. It was not popular, because the north and south banks of the [[River Humber]] used to be in different counties, and there were no links between the two. Even the building of the [[Humber Bridge]], the longest bridge in Europe at the time, did not encourage the two sides of the river to mix. {{UK-stub}} [[Category:1974 establishments in England]] [[Category:1996 disestablishments in England]] [[Category:Historic counties of England]] [[Category:Yorkshire and the Humber]] [[Category:20th-century disestablishments in England]]
