'''Szolnok''' ({{IPA|hu|ˈsolnok}}; also known by [[#Name and etymology|alternative names]]) is the county seat of [[Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok]] county in central [[Hungary]]. A [[city with county rights]], it is located on the banks of the [[Tisza]] river, in the heart of the [[Great Hungarian Plain]], which has made it an important cultural and economic crossroads for centuries. Szolnok also has one of Hungary’s best water polo teams.

==Name and etymology==
Szolnok was named after the first steward of the city, [[Szolnok (ispán)|Szaunik or Zounok]]. The town was first officially mentioned under the name Zounok in 1075. In the following centuries, it was recorded variously as Zounok, Saunic, Zounuc, and Zawnuch. The variety of spellings likely comes from phonetic discrepancies occurring when Hungarian sounds were recorded using the Latin alphabet. Another possibility revolves around speculation that the name Szaunik was not a personal name after all, but rather a title relating to the significant salt trade (salt, {{langx|hu|só}}) in the area.

In most other languages, the city's Hungarian name is used without derivation (for example {{langx|fr|Szolnok}}, {{langx|es|Szolnok}}). The city has its own name in a few languages (for example {{langx|de|Sollnock or Zolnock}}, {{langx|ro|Solnoca}}, {{langx|ru|Сольнок}}), deriving from these languages' historical relationship to the city.

==Location and physical geography==
Szolnok is located in the heart of the [[Great Hungarian Plain]], at the confluence of the [[Tisza]] and [[Zagyva]] rivers. It lies about {{convert|100|km|mi|0|abbr=off}} east-southeast from [[Budapest]]. The climate of the area is [[continental climate|continental]], with hot summers following relatively mild winters. The region is one of the sunniest in Europe; the average precipitation is about {{convert|490|mm|in}} annually.<ref name="szolnok.hu">{{cite web|url= http://www.szolnok.hu/|title= Szolnok.hu|access-date= 2010-01-24|archive-date= 2013-04-11|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20130411022619/http://www.szolnok.hu/|url-status= dead}} – Official Website of Szolnok</ref>

==History==

===Earliest settlement===
The area was first settled in the [[Paleolithic era]]. The first known inhabitants lived in temporary tent-like structures made from reeds, or in more permanent dwellings made of hides draped over wooden poles. They were hunters of mammoth, reindeer, deer, and boar. Archeologists have also found stone tools from this era, some made of flint.

Fishing equipment such as hooks and weights from nets, dating from the [[Neolithic era]], shows the increasing importance of fishing in the peoples' lives. These were usually made from clay, as were ritual statues of gods, bulls, and stylized women. In [[Szandaszőlős]], a suburb of Szolnok, a permanent Neolithic era settlement was discovered.

By the [[Mesolithic era]], the inhabitants of the area had settled into permanent villages, where they practiced agriculture and animal husbandry. Reconstructions of these settlements can be seen in Szolnok's Damjanich János Museum. The houses of this era were largely made of wood. They utilized carts for transporting goods and large earthenware granaries for storing grain.

In the [[Bronze Age]], new people arrived in the [[Carpathian Basin]]. In [[Tószeg]], a neighbor of Szolnok, a large settlement was established, with houses built with thick adobe walls. The villagers kept horses, pigs, and sheep, as well as collecting clams from the river. Certain artifacts have been found, such as bronze tools, swords, and shells, which suggest long-distance trade.

The Romans were not able to establish permanent settlements on the [[Alföld]] (modern-day eastern Hungary), so in the time before the arrival of the Hungarians in 896, the area was populated by [[Scythians]], [[Celt]]s, and [[Sarmatians]]. A number of artifacts have been found from the Scythian era in Szolnok and in the area surrounding it. During the building of the [[Zagyva River]] dikes, remnants of a Scythian settlement were found, including iron pots and other pottery.

The Celts followed the Scythians. Artifacts from the Celtic era include mostly weapons, including iron swords and shields, as well as saddlery and other iron components. Subsequently, the Sarmatians, who originated in [[Iran]], settled in the surrounding area. The Sarmatian people were in contact with the [[Roman Empire]], sometimes by war and sometimes by trade. Roman money, weapons, jewelry and pottery are often found; when Szolnok's military airport was enlarged in 1952, over two hundred Gepid and Sarmatian graves were uncovered, which contained rich treasures: gold-plated and decorated fibulas, iron weapons, bone combs, belt buckles, and pots. After the Sarmatians, Germanic-speaking peoples took possession of the area.

In Ó-Szanda, a district of Szolnok suburb Szandaszőlős, archeologists discovered a rich trove of artifacts left by the [[Gepids]], who lived in the area in the 4th and 5th centuries. The Gepids were familiar with glass-making and wore heavy beads made from colored glass. After the Gepids, the area was populated by [[Pannonian Avars|Avars]]. Like the Hungarian tribes who came later, the Avars were buried with their horses; a number of these graves have been unearthed. The remains discovered from the time of their rule indicates that the Avars first appeared in the middle of the 6th century. The burial grounds found at [[Rákóczifalva]], some {{convert|1.5|km|mi}} from Szandaszőlős, show that a large permanent settlement once existed there.

It was an important distribution site of salt from Transylvanian region.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Bogdan |first=Ciupercă |title=Some observations from the point of view of the Slon fortifications about power centres in the Lower Danube between the eighth and tenth centuries |url=https://www.academia.edu/1572564/Some_observations_from_the_point_of_view_of_the_Slon_fortifications_about_power_centres_in_the_Lower_Danube_between_the_eighth_and_tenth_centuries?nav_from=18a2e4ee-8149-4866-b74b-7a6fba4a74e9|website= academia.edu |access-date= 20 February 2025}}</ref>

===Middle Ages===
Szolnok was first mentioned, under the name Zounok, in a letter from [[Géza I]] concerning the foundation of the monastery at [[Garamszentbenedek]] in 1075. It was named for the first steward of the city, Szaunik or Zounok. In the following centuries it was recorded as Zounok, Saunic, Zounuc, and Zawnuch. The variety of spellings likely comes from phonetic discrepancies occurring when Hungarian sounds - originally written in runic [[Old Hungarian script]] - were recorded using the Latin alphabet.

Under the rule of the [[Árpád Dynasty]], Szolnok was a market town and the center of Szolnok County. When [[Stephen I of Hungary|King István]] ordered a church built in every tenth village, one was built in Szolnok. The 11th century saw great improvements in the city due to the Tisza river ferry, customs house, and county business. There was great trade and commerce via both the Tisza and the overland roads that ran through Szolnok. Despite this, Szolnok remained a market town through the Middle Ages, without expanding to a city. The [[Szolnok Castle]] was, in these times, only an earthworks fort, although later a wooden wall was added.

During the [[Battle of Mohi|Mongol invasion of Hungary]] in 1241 the town was destroyed; it was re-populated under King [[Béla IV]] but even by the end of the 14th century it was still considered a village. King [[Sigismund of Luxemburg|Zsigmond of Luxemburg]], in an effort to develop the town, freed Szolnok from certain taxes in 1422, and from customs in 1429. After this, the town slowly began to grow and prosper again.

===In Ottoman Hungary===
Due to Szolnok's geographical centrality, [[Szolnok Castle]] played an important role in the border castle system of 16th century Hungary. After the [[Ottoman wars in Europe|Ottoman armies]] captured [[Temesvár]] and occupied the [[Danube]]-[[Tisza]]-[[Maros River]] area, only two forces of any significance stood between them and the rest of Hungary: Szolnok, and [[Eger]] to the north. Beginning in June 1552, Hungarian, Transylvanian, and Viennese agents all began reporting that the Ottoman army was on the move out of Temesvár towards Szolnok and Eger. The task of capturing the two was given to Ali Pasha of Buda. After the fall of other minor fortifications on the [[Puszta]], Sultan [[Suleiman the Magnificent]] ordered Pashas Ahmed, Ali, and Mohamed to lead their armies against the castles.

It was in light of this Turkish danger that in 1550-51 [[Ferdinand I, Holy Roman Emperor|Ferdinand I]] ordered the Szolnok earthworks to be improved with a new town wall (partially planned by [[István Dobó]]), the castle to be fortified, and Lőrinc Nyáry put in command. Under his command were 1400 soldiers, mostly Spanish, German, Czech, with a small number of Hungarians. The castle was armed with 24 cannons, 3000 muskets, 800 weights of gunpowder, and was well-stocked with food and supplies.

Further works began in summer of 1552 and progressed rapidly. In order to surround the castle, a new branch of the [[Zagyva]] river was dug. This new branch is the one that remains today, at the point where the Zagyva flows into the [[Tisza]] river. The original course of the Zagyva has today been filled in, but a small part of it remains as the lake in front of the Szolnok MÁV Hospital.

On September 2, 1552, Pasha Ahmed Ali besieged the castle with his army of 40,000. Although it was the German mercenaries who first entertained thoughts of escape, it was the Hungarian boatmen who deserted first. On the night of September 3, the Hungarian and Spanish horsemen swam across the Tisza, then the boatmen returned for the foot soldiers. On the night of September 4, the mercenaries deserted, leaving the castle to its fate. After they departed the front gate was left open until morning, leading to the easy overpowering and capture of Lőrinc Nyáry and the fifty remaining brave men.

[[István Mekcsey]], one of the defenders of the [[Siege of Eger (1552)|Siege of Eger]], wrote the following to his sister four days before the Turkish advance forces reached Eger: "I can't write more... but to say that every day now we feel we are awaiting a great punishment since the traitors gave up Szolnok." Ahmed and Mohamed left a garrison of 2,000 soldiers in Szolnok while they marched against Eger.

The Ottoman occupation of Szolnok lasted from 1552 to 1685. In 1553, they established the [[sanjak]] of Szolnok, and in the following years built a mosque, baths, and a minaret; during the course of later battles these were destroyed, mostly deliberately. Of the minaret the base remained, and this was made into a stylized fountain which remains today. In 1562, they constructed the first permanent bridge spanning the [[Tisza]]. The remains of the so-called Szolnok Turkish-era Bridge ({{langx|hu|szolnoki török kori híd}}) again came to light in August 2003 after a summer of drought. The only Turkish [[codex]] made in Hungary was copied in Szolnok; it describes the campaigns of Suleiman in Hungary. Pottery and tools from the Turkish era can be seen today in Szolnok's Damjanich János Museum.

===Post-Ottoman Szolnok===
[[File:August Xaver Karl von Pettenkofen - The Market at Szolnok, Hungary - Walters 3753.jpg|thumb|Szolnok was an important market center of 11,000 inhabitants in the mid 19th century.<ref>{{cite web |publisher= [[The Walters Art Museum]]
|url= http://art.thewalters.org/detail/20460
|title=The Market at Szolnok, Hungary }}</ref> The Walters Art Museum.]]
In 1685, Szolnok was liberated from the Ottomans by the Habsburg armies under the control of Generals Heister and Mercy; during the liberation both the city and the castle were significantly damaged. Due to Szolnok castle's strategic importance, it was rebuilt by commander [[Antonio Carafa (general)|Antonio Caraffa]].

In 1697, [[Imre Thököly]] burned down the castle. The events of the [[Rákóczi Uprising]] in 1703 and 1706 reached Szolnok and the city was again razed to the ground. In 1706, Ferenc Deák, one of [[Francis Rákóczi II|Rákóczi's]] leaders, burned the Szolnok castle so that Imperial forces couldn't use it, so Imperial General Rabutin had the stones all taken away. In 1710, forces loyal to Rákóczi took over the castle, but on October 10, they abandoned it to the advancing army of Imperial General Jacob Joseph Cusani. After the Uprising, the castle finally fell to pieces and the stones were carted away.

In the years after, the city of Szolnok fared little better than the castle; it was hit by disaster after disaster, including a massive storm in 1739 which devastated the city. During the storm a fire broke out which, aided by the storm winds, grew and engulfed the majority of the town. The only buildings which were spared were those which were isolated from the town center.<ref>{{cite web | url= http://www.users.broadband.hu/vkszolnok/Szolnok.htm | title= Pár szó a város múltjáról | access-date= 2007-03-08 | author= Dr. Vörös István | year= 1926 | work= Rajzok Szolnok város múltjából és Szolnok rt. város története | url-status= dead | archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20061118050605/http://www.users.broadband.hu/vkszolnok/Szolnok.htm | archive-date= 2006-11-18 }}</ref>

Szolnok started to prosper again in the second half of the 18th century. Control of the river [[Tisza]] and steamship traffic increased the town's importance. From 1847 Szolnok was connected to [[Pest (city)|Pest]] by [[railway]].

Its citizens took part in the [[Hungarian Revolution of 1848]] in 1848-49. In the [[Battle of Szolnok]], the Austrians were defeated by the armies of General [[János Damjanich]].

After the [[Ausgleich]], the population and importance of Szolnok grew. In 1876, Szolnok became capital of the comitatus again. By 1879, it already had 16,001 residents.

===20th century===
Szolnok saw action in the [[First World War]] in May 1919 when a long and bitter battle raged along the Tisza between the advancing Romanian army and the Hungarian Red Army. Romanian troops caused terrible damage to the area as the front stagnated here for 77 days. After the defeat of the Red Army in July 1919 in the [[Tiszántúl]] (the regions east of Szolnok), the Romanians crossed the Tisza and occupied the city. The occupation lasted until February 25, 1920. The railroad bridge, which had been destroyed during the battle, was finally reconstructed in 1923.
[[File:Szolnok 1960, Szapáry utca. Fortepan 6614.jpg|thumb|Szolnok in 1960]]
In 1930, the city had 38,764 inhabitants. Several higher level educational institutions existed, including boys' and girls' grammar schools, a scientific secondary school, trade schools for boys and girls both, lumber- and metal-works vocational school, and a midwifery training institute.
The interwar period saw a surge in industry, including factories for weights, mirrors, furniture, vinegar spirits, rum, and liquor, ice, cotton wool, bricks, sugar; smelting furnace and metalworks factory; machinery factory and iron foundry; two electrical distribution systems; four lumber mills; and four steam mills.

In the interwar period, most of the damage done to the city had been successfully repaired. During [[World War II]], Szolnok was bombed twelve times, mostly by American troops, which caused serious damage to the buildings and the population. In the so-called "Frantic" attack (June 2 - September 19, 1944) a wave of 600 fighter planes bombed Debrecen; the right wing also bombed Nagyvárad (now Oradea), Kolozsvár (now Cluj Napoca), Szeged, and Balmazújváros, and the left wing Szolnok and Miskolc. Szolnok suffered great damaged under these attacks and many people died. The train station of Szolnok was bombed several times, by both British and American fighters.

During 1944, it became the location of a "labor camp" and a concentration point for Hungarian Jews being deported to Mauthausen in Austria. It was critical to the success of the Hungarian Jews roundup and deportion.

By the end of the war, the majority of the population had fled; the [[Red Army|Soviet]] troops of the [[Steppe Front|2nd Ukrainian Front]] found only a couple thousand people when they entered the decimated city on 4 November 1944, in the course of the [[Budapest Offensive]].

During the [[Socialism|Socialist]] era, Szolnok began to recover with Soviet aid. Factories were built, and touristic importance grew when a thermal bath was opened.

Szolnok was granted the rank of city with county rights on November 13, 1990.

==Demographics==
In 2001, the population of Szolnok consisted of 98% [[Hungarian people|Hungarian]], 1% [[Romani people|Gypsy]], and 1% people of other nationalities (mainly German).<ref>[http://www.nepszamlalas.hu/hun/kotetek/06/16/data/tabhun/3/load01_7_0-2.html Population of Szolnok by Nationality, in Hungarian]{{Dead link|date=August 2023 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref>

Szolnok's population reached its highest level in 1989 with almost 82,000 people. Since then it has been slowly but steadily declining.

The '''Hampshire Senior Cup''' is a [[Single-elimination tournament|cup competition]] open to [[association football|football]] teams affiliated with the [[Hampshire Football Association]]. The competition was founded in 1887 and has been contested every year since, except 1914 to 1919 when it was postponed due to the First World War.<ref name="winners">{{cite web|url=http://www.hampshirefa.com/FixturesAndResults/CountyCups/SaturdaySeniorCup/Archive/2008-2009/SaturdaySeniorCup.htm?js=1&tab=about|title=Hampshire Senior Cup – Previous Winners|publisher=[[Hampshire Football Association]]|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120303001755/http://www.hampshirefa.com/FixturesAndResults/CountyCups/SaturdaySeniorCup/Archive/2008-2009/SaturdaySeniorCup.htm?js=1&tab=about|archive-date=3 March 2012}}</ref>

Despite the name, teams from Wiltshire, Dorset, the Isle of Wight and the Channel Islands have also competed in this competition,<ref>{{cite news | url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/jersey/content/articles/2004/11/07/football_countycups_report_11_06_feature.shtml | title=Win, draw and defeat in County Cups | publisher=BBC | date=2004-11-07 | access-date=2008-02-01}}</ref> as well as teams representing the Police and any armed forces based within the county. The competition is open to teams from all levels of competition from the [[Premier League]] down to Level 10 of the [[English football league system]],<ref name="cup rules" /> and a number of league teams have won this competition in the past. However, it is mostly non-league clubs who compete for this trophy instead of their league counterparts as all teams associated with the Hampshire FA are required to compete, with the exception of Premier League and [[English Football League]] teams who may opt out of the competition for a nominal fee.<ref name="cup rules">{{cite web | url = http://www.hampshirefa.com/NR/rdonlyres/3908BF58-718C-4CA2-80CC-8C912B4F6B9D/0/HampshireFACountyCupRules.doc | title = County Cup Competition Rules | publisher = Hampshire Football Association | access-date = 15 April 2010 | format = DOC | url-status = dead | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20090529222251/http://www.hampshirefa.com/NR/rdonlyres/3908BF58-718C-4CA2-80CC-8C912B4F6B9D/0/HampshireFACountyCupRules.doc | archive-date = 29 May 2009 }}</ref>

The record attendance came in the 1932 Final, when an incredible 20,544 watched Newport play Cowes at The Dell, Southampton. The biggest score in the final came more recently in 2000 when Aldershot Town defeated Andover 9–1. There has also twice been 8–0 final scores.

The current champions are [[Basingstoke Town]] who beat [[AFC Bournemouth]] 1-0 with a 95th-minute goal from Bradley Wilson to win the match in dramatic fashion.

In April 2012, [[FIFA]] announced that the [[Hawk-Eye]] sensor system would be used in an experimental capacity at that year's final between [[A.F.C. Totton]] and [[Eastleigh F.C.|Eastleigh]] as part of a series of ongoing reliability and accuracy tests of goal-line technology systems.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2012/apr/27/fifa-goalline-technology | title=Fifa to test goalline technology in Hampshire FA Senior Cup final | work=[[The Guardian]] | date=27 April 2012 | access-date=15 May 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/9674664.FIFA_to_experiment_at_Hampshire_Senior_Cup_final/ | title=FIFA to experiment at Hampshire Senior Cup final | publisher=[[Southern Daily Echo]] | date=27 April 2012 | access-date=15 May 2012}}</ref>

On 9 October 2013, a tie was played between [[Brockenhurst F.C.|Brockenhurst]] and [[Andover Town F.C.|Andover Town]]. After the match finished 0-0 after extra time, the subsequent [[Penalty shoot-out (association football)|penalty shootout]] resulted in 29 consecutive goals being scored, with Brockenhurst winning 15–14. This was later confirmed by [[the Football Association]] as an English record (and possibly a world record) for the highest number of consecutive goals scored in a penalty shootout.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/24535150|title=Penalty shoot-out record: Brockenhurst 15-14 Andover|publisher=[[BBC Sport]]|first=Nabil|last=Hassan|date=15 October 2013|access-date=16 October 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/news-and-comment/brockenhurst-and-andover-town-score-29-consecutive-penalties-to-set-new-record-8882084.html|work=[[The Independent]]|first=Simon|last=Rice|title=Brockenhurst and Andover Town score 29 consecutive penalties to set new record|date=15 October 2013|access-date=16 October 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/video/2013/oct/15/penalty-shootout-record-shooting-goals-barrel-video|title=Penalty shootout record: like shooting goals in a barrel?|work=[[The Guardian]]|date=15 October 2013|access-date=16 October 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131016043733/http://www.theguardian.com/football/video/2013/oct/15/penalty-shootout-record-shooting-goals-barrel-video|archive-date=16 October 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/blogs/pitchside-europe/non-league-sides-set-penalty-shoot-record-160337267.html|title=Non-league sides set penalty shoot-out record|work=[[Eurosport]]|date=15 October 2013|access-date=16 October 2013|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131018052759/http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/blogs/pitchside-europe/non-league-sides-set-penalty-shoot-record-160337267.html|archive-date=18 October 2013}}</ref>

'''Thorpe Cloud''' is an isolated [[limestone]] hill (a [[reef knoll]]) lying between the villages of [[Thorpe, Derbyshire|Thorpe]] and [[Ilam, Staffordshire|Ilam]] on the [[Derbyshire]]/[[Staffordshire]] border at the southern end of [[Dovedale]]. The name [[Cloud#Etymology|"cloud"]] derives from the [[Old English]] word ''clud'' which means "hill". Thorpe Cloud is popular with the many [[day-tripper]]s who visit the area, and provides a fine viewpoint north up the dale and south across the Midland plain.

Like much of the dale, including [[Bunster Hill]] on the opposite bank, it is in the ownership of the [[National Trust for Places of Historic Interest or Natural Beauty|National Trust]], and is part of their [[South Peak Estate]]. These Dovedale properties were acquired by the Trust in 1934.

A [[double sunset]] can sometimes be seen against Thorpe Cloud from the top of nearby Lin Dale, as captured on film by the photographer Chris Doherty. The occurrence is visible in good weather on and around the [[summer solstice]] and perhaps beyond, when the sun sets on the summit of the hill, partially reappears from its steep northern slope and sets for a second and final time shortly afterwards.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.whitestuff.com/julia-bradbury-secret-walks/|title=White Stuff UK}}</ref>

Thorpe Cloud and Dovedale were used as locations in the 2010 film of [[Robin Hood (2010 film)|''Robin Hood'']], starring Russell Crowe. Thorpe Cloud can be clearly made out in several scenes towards the end of the film.

Thorpe Cloud also has a rifle range which local and national shooting clubs use.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.peakrifleandpistolclub.org.uk |title=Peak Rifle and Pistol Club |access-date=17 December 2014}}</ref>

'''Sir Godfrey Hilton Thomson''' [[FRSE]] DCL (27 March 1881 – 9 February 1955) was an [[England|English]] [[educational psychologist]] known as a critical pioneer in [[intelligence]] research.<ref>ODNB: Godfrey Thomson</ref>

The '''Godfrey Thomson Unit for Research''' at Moray College in Edinburgh is named in his honour.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://ourhistory.is.ed.ac.uk/index.php/Sir_Godfrey_Hilton_Thomson_(1881-1955)|title=Sir Godfrey Hilton Thomson (1881-1955) - Our History}}</ref>

==Life==
Godfrey Thomson was born in [[Carlisle|Carlisle, Cumbria]] on 27 March 1881. He was the son of Charles Thomson and his wife, Jane Hilton. His parents separated when he was a young boy, and his mother moved the two of them to her native town of [[Felling, Tyne and Wear|Felling]] located in [[Tyneside]]. It was here that he attended High Felling School. He was then awarded a scholarship to [[Rutherford College of Technology]]. He proceeded to study at Armstrong College in Newcastle and then moved on to study at the [[University of Strasbourg]] under Professor [[Ferdinand Braun]], working on Hertzian waves.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://ourhistory.is.ed.ac.uk/index.php/Sir_Godfrey_Hilton_Thomson_(1881-1955)|title=Sir Godfrey Hilton Thomson (1881-1955) - Our History}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Godfrey Thomson |url=https://www.ed.ac.uk/education/about-us/maps-estates-history/history/godfrey-thomson |access-date=2022-03-13 |website=The University of Edinburgh |language=en}}</ref>

He worked at [[Colleges of Durham University#Colleges in Newcastle (Armstrong College and King's College)|Armstrong College]], [[Newcastle upon Tyne]] (a college of the [[University of Durham]], [[England]]) from 1906 to 1925, before moving to the
[[University of Edinburgh]] from 1925 until 1951. It was here that he was the Bell Professor of Education and Director of the Moray House Teacher Training College.

His research began in psychophysics,<ref name=thomson1912>Thomson, G. H. (1912). A comparison of psychophysical methods. ''British Journal of Psychology'', 5, 203–241.</ref>
but he became best known for his criticism of [[Charles Spearman|Spearman's]] general factor in [[intelligence]].<ref name=thomson1916>Thomson, G. H. (1916). A hierarchy without a general factor. ''British Journal of Psychology'', 8, 271–281.</ref> Pursuing this interest led to a major work on factor analysis of mental ability.<ref name=thomson1939>Thomson, G. H. (1939). ''The factorial analysis of human ability''. London: University of London Press.</ref>

Additionally, Thomson was active in work on the relationship between intelligence and fertility, conducting some of the first nationally representative sample research, which concluded that this relationship was [[dysgenics|negative]].<ref name=thomson1950>Thomson, G. H. (1950). Intelligence and fertility: The Scottish 1947 survey. ''Eugenics Review'', 41, 163–170.</ref>

In 1926 he was elected a Fellow of the [[Royal Society of Edinburgh]]. His proposers were [[Ralph Allan Sampson]], [[Alexander Morgan (mathematician)|Alexander Morgan]], Sir [[Edmund Taylor Whittaker]] and [[Norman Kemp Smith]]. He served as the Society's vice president from 1954 to 1955.<ref>{{cite book|title=Biographical Index of Former Fellows of the Royal Society of Edinburgh 1783–2002|date=July 2006|publisher=The Royal Society of Edinburgh|isbn=0-902-198-84-X|url=https://www.royalsoced.org.uk/cms/files/fellows/biographical_index/fells_indexp2.pdf|access-date=2018-12-05|archive-date=2016-03-04|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304074135/https://www.royalsoced.org.uk/cms/files/fellows/biographical_index/fells_indexp2.pdf|url-status=dead}}</ref>

In 1931 he was responsible for organizing and analyzing the Scottish Mental Survey: Scotland's contribution to a European assessment of comparison between different countries in school examinations and their values.

Thomson was president of the British Psychological Society from 1945 to 1946.

He was [[Knight Bachelor|knighted]] by King [[George VI]] in 1949.<ref name="lovie and lovie2004">Lovie, P. & Lovie, A. D. (2004). Thomson, Sir Godfrey Hilton (1881–1955). ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography''. Oxford University Press.</ref>

He lived his later years at 5 [[Ravelston|Ravelston Dykes]] in western Edinburgh.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Deary |first=Ian J. |date=2013 |title=An intelligent Scotland: Professor Sir godfrey Thomson and the Scottish Mental Surveys of 1932 and 1947 |url=http://www.britac.ac.uk/journal/1/deary.cfm |journal=Journal of the British Academy |volume=1 |pages=95–131 |doi=10.5871/jba/001.095|doi-access=free }}</ref>
