The previous district was in the non-metropolitan county (administrative county) of North Yorkshire and the new district became a separate non-metropolitan county, while remaining part of the ceremonial county of North Yorkshire. The previous district itself had been reconstituted in 1974 from the county borough with the same boundaries. Ceremonial York is within the ceremonial county of North Yorkshire and, until 1974, was within the jurisdiction of the Lord Lieutenant of the County of York, West Riding and the County of The City of York.
