Lancashire is in northwest England - and Lancashire in particular is one of the most Nordic areas in Britain, IMO. It was thoroughly Anglo-Saxon, and afterwards Norwegian Vikings settled there.Originally Posted by Iuzln
However, these Nordic faces are commonplace in northern and eastern England. I have been there. In those areas, most people are blond and blue-eyed. Someone with darker features stick out like a sore thumb, and is almost immediately gazed upon as a foreigner.
Those are also some of the most nationalistic areas in England. In Lancashire, the British National Party has made strong gains recently.
I saw that south of Lancashire too, in Cheshire. I would not go as far as they are that blond there, although a minority are very Nordid and blond. There were many more with mixed eyes and dark brown hair. The skin is always very fair and ruddy, regardless of hair colour, or sometimes even with brown eyes.

Happy New Year!
I must say that I saw plenty of exceptionally Nordid types on my last visit to Cheshire, which lies south of Lancashire. I have heard and read that the people on Merseyside are a bit more pigmented. I shall find out during the next summer. This time I only met a man from the northeast, Sunderland (south of Newcastle upon Tyne). He too is Nordid, with dark yellow-blond hair, dark blue eyes, long and narrow face, low orbits and a very sloping forehead, still with a nose with an upturned tip which form a great angle with the forehead.
I was very impressed with parts of Northwestern England. I saw quite a few young men whom seem to be truly dolichocranic (if not, at least then within what is called dolichocephaly, up to 80, according to Nyessen 82 for the Nordids) with a jutting occiput, low - very low-skulled, long and narrow, high-rooted noses, sometimes slightly convex (although not with a downturned tip, which is considered non-Nordid) tall and lean (very few, if none were of the broader-faced, thick-set blond types found in Northern Europe, which Coon calls Borreby or Brünn, or simply Upper Palaeolithic survivors), light blond hair (some reddish, strawberry blond, but very few ginger-haired ones, and almost none with auburn hair), and the majority with blue eyes (often spotless, and not a single one with gray eyes). A few look somewhat North-Atlantid, but sometimes of a type that have a rather short, upturned, slightly concave nose. Although one must say that type is more common for Western, rathern than Northwestern England. Robbie Williams is of that type.
I saw more lindividuals with light brown hair than individuals with dark brown, and none with black or blackish hair. The English blonds tend to have a more vascular, rosy complexion than the Swedish blonds. I am not sure if that region is more Nordid when compared with Eastern Norway, which is supposed to be the nucleus of Götatypen. Nevertheless, I am pretty sure that it is more Nordid, at least in the classic sense of the word, compared with the region I am more familiar with, Eastern Sweden.
Chris Kirkland is a good example of a Nordid (although that is not the only type of Nordid found there) Englishmen.

Attached photos are of Kirkland too. The second one is nice. I think that Chris Kirkland is Götatyp.

There are Brittish nordid guys and gals I've seen who are over 30, and still look like 18-20.
I haven't noticed this much with other Nordics and other phenotypes.

I've observed the same with Danish Nordids, and was going to mention it anyway.
"slavic" languages are absolutely arteficial (Read "slawenlegende"). The "glagolica", invented by a bunch of monks, is nothing but an ancient esperanto, creating new words, definitions and alphabet out of regional slangs.
The craddle of European Civilization comes from the North. All blond people originate from the north. So if you see a blond-blue eyed Slovene, Russian, Czech, Polak ect., you can be 100% sure that his ancient ancestors originated from "Germanics" (Germanic = Nordic).
"slovenja" was the settelment of the Langobards = Germanics/Teutons. "Poland" of the Goths and East-Vandals ect. ect. What do "slavs" tell us about their origin? Some silly story that they originate from some swamps in the east and popped out of no where into history.
So you see my dear "Gorostan" [=Triglav], you are in reality a "Germanic" indoctrinated with panslav propaganda and historic fantasy stories. ~Dr. Brandt, former TNP and Skadi member
I observed that in Sweden and Norway people also look MUCH younger. Nords seem also physically mature much later --- average age of receiving PhD is very older in scandinavia comparing e.g. to US. Also junior swedish hockey teams do not win much while some of the best adult players in Nhl are swedesOriginally Posted by Triglav
Adrian and Neil Rayment, better known to portray those weird blond twins from the Matrix Reloaded, are good examples of English Nordics. I believe they are from Kent.
Adrian and Neil Rayment are not of the particular narrow-faced, long-faced Nordid type that distinguish England from the Nordids in Scandinavia and to a lesser degree the ones in the North European Plain.
In the same sense as not being typical for English Nordids, as those two men, but a better example of possessing Nordid features, is the actor and Yorkshire native Julian Sands (see attached pictures).
