Perched dramatically above a gorge of the River Nidd, sits one of England's oldest towns. The market town of Knaresborough, mentioned in the Doomsday Book of 1086, has origins that could well extend back to the Norman Conquest and possibly to Roman times. Famous for Mother Shipton's Cave and the adjacent Petrifying Well (where running water gradually coats suspended objects in a limestone deposit - thus turning them to stone), Knaresborough also boasts a castle and several other attractions - including a house and chapel (St Michael's Cave) hewn out of a rock face at the side of the gorge. Estate agents in Knaresborough say local residents consider the town to be a truly delightful place to live. People searching for houses for sale in Knaresborough will discover a wide selection of properties, including developments of modern houses, stone built cottages, bungalows and apartments in converted period properties.
