I love asking UK, especially English, people this question; the answers vary wildly. Once had a Londoner describe the north as "anywhere north of the M25".

So, lemmings, where is 'the north' to you?

Sheffield and above is North, Cambridge and below is South, in the middle is Midlands, lines are a bit wiggly.

A lot of people just think about wealth/poshness and tend to think only in terms of proximity to London.
