According to Google Maps, there’s a Harrogate in the UK, South Australia (which I didn’t know :lol: ) and Tennessee, US.

Which one is it?

Harrogate, TN is about 30 minutes from where I live. But looks like you really mean the one in the UK.

UK, indeed. After all, I just saw you this summer. Our next meeting won't be for about another 15 years, eh?

Not Philadelphia either, eh. I see there is a neighborhood there called Harrowgate.

Going back to the UK to reclaim the family castle? :biggrin:

Hey Fist!

Harrogate is a ways away from where I live and alas, I don't travel as well as I used to. But if you decide to extend your visit and find yourself anywhere near mid-Cornwall, then I'll be your huckleberry!

Don't know **** about Harrogate, but Cornwall rocks!

;)

Alas, Cornwall is going to be too far for this trip.

Cornwall is beautiful ~ I have family there, in Wales & in Scotland ~ you definitely should plan a longer trip and tour the country.

So you’re visiting Yorkshire 👌 my step father was from Carlisle just north of Harrogate and we hail from just south of Edinburgh ~ my dad being a Scot and my mum a Geordie (Newcastle).
