Staveley is a village and civil parish in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, England. It is situated 4 miles (6.4 km) north of Knaresborough and near the A1(M) motorway. The racehorse Staveley, winner of the 1805 St Leger Stakes, was born at nearby Boroughbridge.[2]
The village used to have a railway station on the now disused Pilmoor, Boroughbridge and Knaresborough Railway. When it opened, it was called Staveley, but from 1881 its name was taken from nearby Copgrove village to avoid confusion with Staveley in Derbyshire.[3]
The grade II listed, Church of All Saints, was built in 1864[4] and holds services twice-monthly.[5]
Attractions
Staveley is home to many local attractions and has the following aspects:
- Staveley Community Primary School, rated 'good' in a 2015 Ofsted inspection.[6]
