Beschreibung
Harrogate made its name as a spa town, after its waters were discovered in the sixteenth century. Visitors flocked to the town to try the health-giving properties of its waters over the next three centuries, and inns and hotels were built to accommodate them, a Georgian theatre for entertainment, a hospital and the Royal Pump Room. Although the heyday of the spa passed, Harrogate remains a popular town to visit as a conference centre and has been voted 'the happiest place to live in Britain'. In this book local author Malcolm Neesam take the reader on a fascinating A Z tour of the town s history, exploring its streets and other places, to tell the story of its buildings, places and people along the way. Fully illustrated with photographs from the past and present, A Z of Harrogate will appeal to all those with an interest in this town in North Yorkshire.
