The present parish church, St John's, was established around this time. The earliest identified Lord of Knaresborough is around 1115 when Serlo de Burgh held the [[Honour (feudal barony)|Honour]] of Knaresborough from the King.<ref>Turner, Dr Maurice. (1990). ''A Brief History of Knaresborough''</ref>
[[Hugh de Morville, Lord of Westmorland|Hugh de Morville]] was granted the Honour of Knaresborough in 1158. He was constable of Knaresborough and leader of the group of four knights who murdered Archbishop [[Thomas Becket]] at [[Canterbury Cathedral]] on 29 December 1170. The four knights fled to Knaresborough and hid at the castle. Hugh de Morville forfeited the lands in 1173, not for his implication in the murder of Thomas Becket, but for "complicity in the rebellion of [[Henry II of England|Henry the Young King]]", according to the Early Yorkshire Charters.
The Honour of Knaresborough then passed to the Stuteville family. When the Stuteville line was broken with the death of Robert the 4th (son of [[Robert III de Stuteville|Robert 3rd]]) in 1205, [[John of England|King John]] effectively took the Honour of Knaresborough for himself.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.knaresborough.co.uk/history/family/stuteville.asp |title=Archived copy |access-date=11 November 2009 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100509141703/http://www.knaresborough.co.uk/history/family/stuteville.asp |archive-date=9 May 2010 }}</ref> The first [[Maundy Money]] was distributed in Knaresborough by [[John of England|King John]] on 15 April 1210.<ref name="HK">{{cite book |first=Arnold |last=Kellett |year=1991 |title=Historic Knaresborough|isbn=978-1-870071-66-6}}</ref><ref>Kellett, Arnold. ''Knaresborough'' (2003) The History Press Ltd. {{ISBN|0-7524-3017-3}}.</ref> [[Knaresborough Forest]], which extended far to the south of the town, is reputed to have been one of King John's favourite hunting grounds.
Although a market was first mentioned in 1206, the town was not granted a [[Royal Charter]] to hold a market until 1310, by [[Edward II]]. A market is still held every Wednesday in the market square. In Edward II's reign, the castle was occupied by rebels and the curtain walls were breached by a siege engine. Later, Scots invaders burned much of the town and the parish church. In 1328, as part of the marriage settlement, [[Queen Philippa]] was granted "the Castle, Town, Forest and Honour of Knaresborough" by [[Edward III]] and the parish church was restored. After her death in 1369, the Honour was granted by Edward to their younger son, [[John of Gaunt]], the Duke of Lancaster and since then the castle has belonged to the [[Duchy of Lancaster]]. After the accession of Henry IV the castle lost much of its importance in national affairs, but remained a key site in regional administration for another century.
In the [[English Civil War|Civil War]], following the [[Battle of Marston Moor]] in 1644, the castle was besieged by Parliamentary forces. The castle eventually fell and in 1646 an order was made by Parliament for its destruction (but not carried out till 1648). The destruction was mainly done by citizens looting the stone. Many town centre buildings are built of castle stone.
The railway age began in Knaresborough in 1848 with the opening of a railway station on Hay Park Lane; this was replaced with the [[Knaresborough railway station|current one]] three years later in 1851. The town had a [[Pilmoor, Boroughbridge and Knaresborough Railway|railway line]] to Boroughbridge until it closed to passengers in 1950; it was dismantled in 1964.
[[Historic counties of England|Historically]] part of the [[West Riding of Yorkshire]], Knaresborough became part of [[North Yorkshire]] in 1974.

The present parish church, St John's, was established around this time. The earliest identified Lord of Knaresborough is around 1115 when Serlo de Burgh held the [[Honour (feudal barony)|Honour]] of Knaresborough from the King.<ref>Turner, Dr Maurice. (1990). ''A Brief History of Knaresborough''</ref>
[[Hugh de Morville, Lord of Westmorland|Hugh de Morville]] was granted the Honour of Knaresborough in 1158. He was constable of Knaresborough and leader of the group of four knights who murdered Archbishop [[Thomas Becket]] at [[Canterbury Cathedral]] on 29 December 1170. The four knights fled to Knaresborough and hid at the castle. Hugh de Morville forfeited the lands in 1173, not for his implication in the murder of Thomas Becket, but for "complicity in the rebellion of [[Henry II of England|Henry the Young King]]", according to the Early Yorkshire Charters.
The Honour of Knaresborough then passed to the Stuteville family. When the Stuteville line was broken with the death of Robert the 4th (son of [[Robert III de Stuteville|Robert 3rd]]) in 1205, [[John of England|King John]] effectively took the Honour of Knaresborough for himself.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.knaresborough.co.uk/history/family/stuteville.asp |title=Archived copy |access-date=11 November 2009 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100509141703/http://www.knaresborough.co.uk/history/family/stuteville.asp |archive-date=9 May 2010 }}</ref> The first [[Maundy Money]] was distributed in Knaresborough by [[John of England|King John]] on 15 April 1210.<ref name="HK">{{cite book |first=Arnold |last=Kellett |year=1991 |title=Historic Knaresborough|isbn=978-1-870071-66-6}}</ref><ref>Kellett, Arnold.

Although a market was first mentioned in 1206, the town was not granted a [[Royal Charter]] to hold a market until 1310, by [[Edward II]]. A market is still held every Wednesday in the market square. In Edward II's reign, the castle was occupied by rebels and the curtain walls were breached by a siege engine. Later, Scots invaders burned much of the town and the parish church. In 1328, as part of the marriage settlement, [[Queen Philippa]] was granted "the Castle, Town, Forest and Honour of Knaresborough" by [[Edward III]] and the parish church was restored. After her death in 1369, the Honour was granted by Edward to their younger son, [[John of Gaunt]], the Duke of Lancaster and since then the castle has belonged to the [[Duchy of Lancaster]]. After the accession of Henry IV the castle lost much of its importance in national affairs, but remained a key site in regional administration for another century.
In the [[English Civil War|Civil War]], following the [[Battle of Marston Moor]] in 1644, the castle was besieged by Parliamentary forces. The castle eventually fell and in 1646 an order was made by Parliament for its destruction (but not carried out till 1648). The destruction was mainly done by citizens looting the stone. Many town centre buildings are built of castle stone.
The railway age began in Knaresborough in 1848 with the opening of a railway station on Hay Park Lane; this was replaced with the [[Knaresborough railway station|current one]] three years later in 1851. The town had a [[Pilmoor, Boroughbridge and Knaresborough Railway|railway line]] to Boroughbridge until it closed to passengers in 1950; it was dismantled in 1964.
[[Historic counties of England|Historically]] part of the [[West Riding of Yorkshire]], Knaresborough became part of [[North Yorkshire]] in 1974.

<p>Knaresborough is mentioned in the <i><a href="/enwiki/wiki/Domesday_Book" title="Domesday Book">Domesday Book</a></i> as <i>Chenaresburg</i>, meaning "Cenheard's fortress",<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2">[2]</a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-domesday_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-domesday-3">[3]</a></sup> in the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Wapentake" class="mw-redirect" title="Wapentake">wapentake</a> of Burghshire,<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4">[4]</a></sup> renamed <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Claro_Wapentake" title="Claro Wapentake">Claro Wapentake</a> in the 12th century. <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Knaresborough_Castle" title="Knaresborough Castle">Knaresborough Castle</a> is <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Normans" title="Normans">Norman</a>;<sup id="cite_ref-KO_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-KO-5">[5]</a></sup> around 1100, the town began to grow and provide a market and attract traders to service the castle. The present parish church, St John's, was established around this time. The earliest identified Lord of Knaresborough is around 1115 when Serlo de Burgh held the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Honour_(feudal_barony)" class="mw-redirect" title="Honour (feudal barony)">Honour</a> of Knaresborough from the King.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6">[6]</a></sup>
</p><p><a href="/enwiki/wiki/Hugh_de_Morville,_Lord_of_Westmorland" title="Hugh de Morville, Lord of Westmorland">Hugh de Morville</a> was granted the Honour of Knaresborough in 1158. He was constable of Knaresborough and leader of the group of four knights who murdered Archbishop <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Thomas_Becket" title="Thomas Becket">Thomas Becket</a> at <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Canterbury_Cathedral" title="Canterbury Cathedral">Canterbury Cathedral</a> on 29 December 1170. The four knights fled to Knaresborough and hid at the castle. Hugh de Morville forfeited the lands in 1173, not for his implication in the murder of Thomas Becket, but for "complicity in the rebellion of <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Henry_II_of_England" title="Henry II of England">Henry the Young King</a>", according to the Early Yorkshire Charters.
</p><p>The Honour of Knaresborough then passed to the Stuteville family. When the Stuteville line was broken with the death of Robert the 4th (son of <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Robert_III_de_Stuteville" title="Robert III de Stuteville">Robert 3rd</a>) in 1205, <a href="/enwiki/wiki/John_of_England" class="mw-redirect" title="John of England">King John</a> effectively took the Honour of Knaresborough for himself.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7">[7]</a></sup> The first <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Maundy_Money" class="mw-redirect" title="Maundy Money">Maundy Money</a> was distributed in Knaresborough by <a href="/enwiki/wiki/John_of_England" class="mw-redirect" title="John of England">King John</a> on 15 April 1210.<sup id="cite_ref-HK_8-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-HK-8">[8]</a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9">[9]</a></sup> <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Knaresborough_Forest" class="mw-redirect" title="Knaresborough Forest">Knaresborough Forest</a>, which extended far to the south of the town, is reputed to have been one of King John's favourite hunting grounds.
</p><p>Although a market was first mentioned in 1206, the town was not granted a <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Royal_Charter" class="mw-redirect" title="Royal Charter">Royal Charter</a> to hold a market until 1310, by <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Edward_II" class="mw-redirect" title="Edward II">Edward II</a>. A market is still held every Wednesday in the market square. In Edward II's reign, the castle was occupied by rebels and the curtain walls were breached by a siege engine. Later, Scots invaders burned much of the town and the parish church. In 1328, as part of the marriage settlement, <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Queen_Philippa" class="mw-redirect" title="Queen Philippa">Queen Philippa</a> was granted "the Castle, Town, Forest and Honour of Knaresborough" by <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Edward_III" class="mw-redirect" title="Edward III">Edward III</a> and the parish church was restored. After her death in 1369, the Honour was granted by Edward to their younger son, <a href="/enwiki/wiki/John_of_Gaunt" title="John of Gaunt">John of Gaunt</a>, the Duke of Lancaster and since then the castle has belonged to the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Duchy_of_Lancaster" title="Duchy of Lancaster">Duchy of Lancaster</a>.
