Roadworks, Harrogate Road, Greengates

Image: © Stephen Craven Taken: 11 Jan 2022

The junction of New Line (A657) and Harrogate Road (A658) is being remodelled. Work has been going on for well over a year already and is nowhere near finished, and locals are getting rather annoyed about the delays, as the temporary 4-way traffic lights are increasing the congestion that the works are designed to ease. The building in the background is the former Seven Stars pub, now a row of shops. It is listed grade II (list entry 1133123) where it is dated to circa 1830-40, "rebuild of earlier inn or former building".
