This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1920 edition. Excerpt: ...a passage in Thoresby's Diary under date June 25th, 1702: --" Rode," he writes, "to the Spas at Harrowgate... the place itself is so altered with new buildings, from what it was when I knew it formerly, that it helped to deceive me." Before the building of the first inn the accommodation must have been primitive enough. When the Duchess of Buckingham, Lord Fairfax's daughter, came to the Spaws to seek relief from "a severe asthma" she caused a tent to be pitched near the old well, and lived in it while she took the cure. However, there were three inns by 1700, and the folk of the farmhouses had begun to find it a profitable thing to take in the fashionables who came not only from York but from London. But before Thoresby had begun visiting Harrogate, a lively controversy had arisen between certain physicians as to the merits of its medicinal springs and that discovered at Scarborough by good Mistress Farrow. In 1667 one Robert Wittie, a doctor of medicine and a Fellow of the Royal Society, published at York a " Description of Spaw Waters at Scarborough in Yorkshire," wherein he made some slighting remarks upon the waters of Knaresborough. This in 1669 called forth a reply from "W. Simpson, Philo-Chimico-Medicus," who in that year published in Condon through Richard Chiswel, at the Two Angels and Crown in Little Britain, a treatise called "Hydrologia Chimica," wherein he discussed the waters of Scarborough, Knaresborough, and Malton. In the same year Wittie published a rejoinder, "Pyrologia Mimica," in which he contends that three pints of Scarborough water are equal in quality and efficiency to ten gallons of that of Knaresborough. The controversy was continued by...

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Harrogate was the principal spa town of Yorkshire and Knaresborough was famous for its 'dropping well'. As such, both were popular tourist destinations. Detailed guide books, such as Black's Guide to Yorkshire, were available to help visitors make the most of their stay. Black's was updated each year and included historical facts about local towns and villages, where to stay, what to see and excursions to places of interest. This 50 page booklet combines text relating to Harrogate, Knaresborough and the surrounding area (including nearby villages and Harewood House) from Black's Guide, published in 1888, with photographs from the Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive. It is in three parts. The first is twenty five photographs, most of which were taken between 1890 and 1920; the second, a detailed visitor's guide to Harrogate and Knaresborough and the third, a history and general description of Yorkshire. The text for parts two and three is reproduced from the 1888 guide-book. The Black's Guide text and the photographs complement each other and enable us to travel back in time to visit this historically important, stunningly beautiful part of Yorkshire.

Excerpt from Harrogate and Knaresborough Harrogate, as it presents itself to-day, is one of the newest of English towns; Knares-borough is one of the oldest. Knaresborough has been very much what it is now for several centuries; Harrogate, within the memory of man, has so increased as to dwarf its ancient neighbour. But while one represents antiquity, and the other the modern spirits of improvement and progress, there is a close link between the two, and in writing local history it is impossible to separate them. In the following chapters an attempt is made to deal with episodes in which they have a common interest; for example, the discovery of the medicinal waters which attract so many thousands to Harrogate every year, was originally a matter affecting Knaresborough only, for Harrogate, as we know it, had then no existence. Again, the career of John Metcalf is almost as closely concerned with the new town as with the old. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
