1-3 Church Square, Harrogate, North Yorkshire.
An early C19 terrace with symmetrical facade.
Grade ll listed.

Church Square developed long before the creation of The Stray in 1778, probably after the building of the Bay Horse Inn (now The Empress) at the junction of the ancient Here-Gate (or Soldiers’ Way) and Gamell-Gate - the way to Bilton where Gamelbar held land before 1086. Near this spot Eli Hargrove had his toy shop and in 1775 published the first guide and history of Harrogate. Here too, from 1837-1968, stood Christ Church School. A major redevelopment (1988-91) by Goldsborough greatly improved the architectural appearance of the square.
