About Fencing in Harrogate
Harrogate in North Yorkshire grew into a fashionable spa town from the seventeenth century onwards, its many mineral springs drawing visitors seeking their health benefits and leading to the development of grand Victorian and Edwardian architecture around the town, including the Royal Pump Room and the Turkish Baths. The town's elegant character and open green spaces, particularly the 200 acre Stray, still define its centre today, and Harrogate consistently ranks among the most desirable places to live in the country.
