I was going to put a clue or two on as you are all wrong, however Advisor is so close, I'll leave the clues off for now. Check your maps, you might just get it. (If not I promise a couple of clues - good luck!!)

No Bart, not Boroughbridge.

Check out the geographical area of Advisor's guesses.

Advisor, you are so close, but it's not Harrogate - try again - keeping to the area of your previous two guesses.

Good luck!!

OK, time for one or two clues...

1) - Its a small Yorkshire market town; it has a gorge which is spanned by an impressive Victorian viaduct, which carries the local trains.

2) - It has a castle, also a house which is carved into a rock.

3) - It has a "petrifying well" - I'll say no more for now.
