Heritage

Formerly the home of local author Stan Barstow, Goring House remains an enduring reminder of an ambitious late 19th-century vision to develop this part of Ossett as a “Little Harrogate.” The surrounding lime tree avenues, planted in 1864, continue to frame this historic and highly desirable setting.
