  On our way to the Peak District earlier today, partner and I were discussing where the North starts. Neither of us knew. Ideas please DS.

  
  I'd say everything roughly level with Liverpool.

  It used to be considered anything ahead of the Watford Gap.

  I'd say that's a tiny bit outside the bottom of the North East.

  Ha-ha! Just goes to show that people from different regions have different opinions on where the North starts.

  From the equator I suppose.
  
  Does the OP think the English North / South thing is actually a recognised fixed geographical or geological boundary ?
  
  I despair.

  I would imagine it's anywhere north of the Midlands.
  South. Midlands. North.

  South. Midlands. North.

  
  That's how I see it in relation to England. Obviously there will be North and South in Scotland but it's all North to me. If that makes sense.
