Ripon Market & Harrogate

Ripon Market & Harrogate

 

Founded over 1300 years ago, Ripon rich heritage is still very much in evidence today. In addition to the 7th-century Cathedral the City boasts many historic buildings, museums and monuments including a traditional market square and 300-year-old (and 90ft-high) obelisk.

 

The market square is surrounded by quaint medieval streets (filled with fascinating and many independent shops and tearooms), and both Georgian and medieval buildings. The latter include the Town Hall, completed in 1801 and the 14th century half-timbered  Wakeman's House.  You can also visit the  Ripon Prison & Police Museum, Courthouse Museum and the Workhouse Museum or the picturesque Spa Gardens (with its Victorian bandstand) and Baths. The recently restored Canal Basin  now makes Ripon the most northerly point on the England and Wales waterways system.

Yorkshire prides itself on its food and drink, and Harrogate District flies this flag with pride, from there own gin, to the delicious local produce available across the towns.  As well as familiar names you will find independent restaurants offering carefully prepared ingredients served to please the eye as well as the appetite.
