Harlow Hill Tower
An early attraction for visitors to the town in the 19th century. The tower, sometimes referred to as an observatory, was built in 1829 and is 27m high. An old guide to Harrogate of circa 1900 comments thus....'Here stands an observatory with a fine panoramic view that includes the cathedrals of York and Ripon and well-nigh two hundred parish churches.' The Victorian visitor must have been blessed with exceptional eyesight, for although York Minster is visible some 22 miles east on a clear day, the Minster at Ripon would seem to be invisible from here, even at over 600ft above the sea. On this dull November day, the view extended to the Hambleton Hills and the Yorkshire Wolds, but there was no attempt to count parish churches. The tower is now privately owned and not open to the public.
