  • Growth Strategy
    Harrogate District Local Plan: Publication Draft 2018 Harrogate District Growth Strategy Harrogate Borough Council 23 Harrogate District Local Plan: Publication Draft 2018 3 Harrogate District Growth Strategy Harrogate District Growth Strategy: Key Facts Household projections show household growth across the district of 11% between 2004-35, which is a lower level of growth than the region (15%) and England (20%). The three main urban areas of Harrogate, Knaresborough and Ripon support the largest concentrations of the district's population. Since the Harrogate District Local Plan was adopted in 2001 these settlements, together with the market towns of Boroughbridge, Masham and Pateley Bridge, have accommodated the majority of new growth. The district has a large rural area containing villages and hamlets ranging from larger villages with local services and facilities down to small clusters of houses. There is a need to ensure that rural settlements can continue to support local village services. The district has high levels of employment and the highest rate of business start-ups of any district within the Leeds City Region. The district’s residents are some of the most qualified in the north of England. The local economy has a number of prominent high-value sectors (including wholesale, professional services and media) alongside a thriving visitor economy. Despite high resident skill levels and average earnings, workplace wages in the district are considerably lower than the regional and national average, with a disproportionate skew in local employment towards low value sectors. In the west of the district lies the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), which covers some 233 sq miles; more generally the district has high quality natural, built and historic environments.

  • Knaresborough Brochure 2019
    Knaresborough Team Ministry Parish Brochure 2019 We are seeking a team vicar, a pastor, a colleague and a friend to join us as we continue our journey in faith. The Church context The Anglican Diocese of Leeds comprises five Episcopal Areas, each coterminous with an Archdeaconry. This is now one of the largest dioceses in the country, and its creation is unprecedented in the history of the Church of England. It covers an area of around 2,425 square miles, and a population of around 2,642,400 people. The three former dioceses were created in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to cater for massive population changes brought about by industrialisation and, later, mass immigration. The diocese comprises major cities (Bradford, Leeds, Wakefield), large industrial and post-industrial towns (Halifax, Huddersfield, Dewsbury), market towns (Knaresborough, Harrogate, Skipton, Ripon, Richmond and Wetherby), and deeply rural areas (the Dales). The whole of life is here, along with all the richness, diversity and complexities of a changing world. The Diocesan Bishop (The Rt Rev’d Nick Baines) is assisted by five Area Bishops (Bradford, Huddersfield, Kirkstall, Wakefield and Ripon), and five archdeacons (Bradford, Halifax, Leeds, Pontefract, Richmond & Craven). The parish of Knaresborough lies in the Harrogate Deanery within the Ripon Episcopal Area and the Archdeaconry of Richmond and Craven. Our vision as the Diocese is about confident clergy equipping confident Christians to live and tell the good news of Jesus Christ. For all of our appointments we are seeking clergy who have a joyful and confident faith which has inspired a track record of church growth, both numerically and spiritually.
