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’.
