The 33rd (1st YORKSHIRE WEST RIDING) Regiment of Foot Size:A4 Buttermere in the Lake DistrictLike some other regiments, the 33rd was raised in 1702 to fight in the War of Spanish Succession and it subsequently fought in the War of the Austrian Succession, the Seven Years War and the American Independence War. In 1782 it was decided to link regiments to a county and it then became the 33rd or 1st Yorkshire West Riding. In 1793, Arthur Wesley, later the Duke of Wellington, took over command of the regiment. The 33rd also saw action in India,
