Wikipedia description:
Holderness was a local government district and borough in northern England, named after the Holderness peninsula. It was formed on 1 April 1974 along with the non-metropolitan county of Humberside in which it was situated. It was formed from part of the administrative county of Yorkshire, East Riding, namely: The municipal borough of Hedon, The urban districts of Hornsea and Withernsea, The Holderness Rural District. The council's headquarters were at Skirlaugh, in the converted workhouse that had been built in 1838. On 1 April 1996, Humberside and the borough were abolished, and it became part of the new unitary East Riding of Yorkshire.
