Hexhamshire
Hexhamshire was a county of Northern England. It existed for several hundred years until it was incorporated into Northumberland in 1572. ==County== The county probably originated as one of the districts of the Kingdom of Northumbria, the town of Hexham then being the seat of a bishopric. It later lost its privileges, and became considered part of County Durham. In the early 12th century, Henry I of England decided to weaken the power of the prince bishops of Durham by removing parts of their realm. In doing so, he elevated Hexhamshire to county status, with Hexham as its county town. Hexhamshire remained a county until 1572, when it was incorporated into Northumberland by Act of Parliament,〔(Journal of the House of Lords May 1572 )〕〔(Journal of the House of Commons May 1572 )〕 by 14 Eliz. 1 c. 13 ("An Act for the annexing of Hexhamshire to the Countye of Northumberland"). At the same time, the district was transferred from the see of Durham to the see of York, where it remained until 1837.
