Starbeck

[4] The township was part of the ancient Royal Forest of Knaresborough, which is situated to the south of the River Nidd.

[7] The railway buildings gradually increased, and with them came a corn mill, malt house and water bottling plant.

[6] There is only one public house, after the British Heritage Society-listed Henry Peacock Pub, named after the master of the local workhouse,[10] due to be demolished in 2016, was turned into a terrace of apartments with retail stores on the ground floor.

[11] Taylors of Harrogate's Yorkshire Tea factory,[12] Betty's Craft Bakery,[13] a large Morrisons supermarket and a branch of Currys/PC World lie within a nearby industrial estate.

[15] Starbeck has been a frequent winner of the Royal Horticultural Society "In Bloom" award in the Urban Community Category.

The Forest Lane level crossing in Starbeck was used by Yorkshire Television for the filming of a scene in the Beiderbecke Affair.
