@SuperStu There's Greggs everywhere now.

 

I'm originally from Middlesbrough. Defo in the North like pet.

 

It’s not that there’s Gregg’s everywhere, it’s the population density per Greggs!

I have to say I grew up in Yorkshire and live in Scotland. Anywhere past south yorkshire is the south. Anywhere north of that is the north. 

 

Having said that that it can be measured different ways as has been suggested. Population density has it in snareston. 

 

People per gregs has it on some weird line 

 

and actual distance has it at Leeds.

Lincoln is without question in the North.

 

Nah, Lincoln is in the Midlands - the Limbo Land.  The weather simply isn't bad enough there to call it 'North', they get sunshine for goodness' sake!

Lincoln is on the east midlands border and shares a lot of other towns post codes as well like ng(notts)

pe(peterboro) dn(Doncaster). as well as the ln(Lincoln) postcode. so Lincoln isn't north or south we are definitely in the east, so either east midlands or east coast.... that's how I see it anyway....

sort tha sen art Dan

 

 

1) Lincolnshire stretches from the North (the River Humber) to the South (Cambridgeshire) and is therefore clearly Midlands

 

2) Lincolnshire coast is longer than Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex and Kent combined

 

that makes it East Midlands

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

P.S. I may have lied in point 2
