Wetherby

Wetherby is a town in the county of West Yorkshire, England, near Boston Spa, on the River Wharfe. The ruins of Wetherby Castle are just outside the town.

Wetherby was listed in the Doomsday Book and was a place for crossing the River Wharfe. As a result it had many Inns, which are now pubs and it is somewehre many people choose to stop for refreshements and fish and chips (at the Wetherby Whaler) on the way to the Yorkshire Dales and Harrogate.
