Random English City or Town to County

In this quiz the answers change every time you play!
Can you name the county in England where each of these towns or cities is located? Some place names can be found in more than one county but the answer needs to match the population shown. Additionally some of the places listed are now independent 'Unitary Authorities' but are still considered to be 'in' the county.
Answers must correspond to the highlighted box!
All places have a population of at least 10,000 according to the 2011 census.
Many standard short-hand variants for county names are accepted.
