Stained glass panel depicting an angel, Royal Pump Room, Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England, UK.


The panel commemorates the discovery of the medicinal waters in Harrogate. Built in 1842 above a sulphur well, the Royal Pump Room is now a museum. Harrogate has nearly 90 springs containing iron and sulphur close together, yet quite separate, with 30 of them in what is now "Valley Gardens". They were used in earlier times, but is was not until William Slingsby rediscovered the Tewit Well in 1571, and Dr Michael Stanhope the St John's Well in 1631, that the town's development as a spa town commenced.
