The countryside
of Yorkshire has acquired the common nickname of God's Own County. In recent
times, North Yorkshire has displaced Kent to take the title Garden of England
according to The Guardian. Yorkshire has three national parks,
in the form of the Peak District, North York Moors and the Yorkshire Dales,
and two designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty at Nidderdale and
the Howardian Hills. The three designated Heritage Coast areas in Yorkshire
are Spurn Point, Flamborough Head and coastal North York Moors.These
areas of Yorkshire are noted for their scenic views with rugged cliffs
such as the jet cliffs at Whitby, the limestone cliffs at Filey and the
chalk cliffs at Flamborough Head.
