Knaresborough
Knaresborough is a historical market town, spa town and civil parish in the Borough of Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England. Traditionally an area of the West Riding of Yorkshire, it is situated on the River Nidd, 4 miles east from the centre of Harrogate. The town is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 as 'Cenheard's fortress', with the name of the region undergoing various changes over the next couple of centuries. The advancement of the town began around 1100, when it started to offer a market and draw in traders to service the castle. The town was not bestowed a royal charter to verify its status as a market town up until 1310 by Edward II. A market continues to be held every Wednesday in the market square throughout the year. There are multiple landmarks dispersed all around the town that bring in frequent visitors. Some examples include the remains of Knaresborough Castle, the House in the Rock, the railway viaduct over the River Nidd, and St. Robert's Cave. Knaresborough is also the home of 'Ye Oldest Chymist Shoppe' in England, which opened in 1720, a time in which there was much mistrust about such establishments. The town is also host to a variety of social and cultural attractions all throughout the year. It has held the annual Bed Race since 1966, which is organised by the Knaresborough Lions Club, and the Festival of Entertainment and Visual Arts (FEVA), an annual arts summer festival in the town centre, since 2001. There are 15 running pubs in the town, alongside a wine bar and several eateries.
