Interesting to note that most of the areas north of the 'line' are old Danish/Norse territories called the 'Danegeld' which was established during the viking raids on England.The areas south of the 'line' would be deemed typically 'Angle' & 'Saxon' (with a small number of Jutish and Frisian tribes along the lower east coast) territory,or Anglo-Saxon. Yorkshire (i'm from South Yorkshire),and its capital York was once the main viking stronghold in northern England,and was originally called Jorvik (just some random info for you all there).

At least i'm a northerner!

Thanks for that image.
