A consultation has started on whether the Yorkshire Wolds should be made an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).

The chalk hills run from the Vale of York in North Yorkshire to the East Yorkshire coast.

Based on public feedback, Natural England could ask the government to designate it as an AONB.

If approved, it would mean the area would be given some legal protection covering development and conservation.
