*************

Pateley Bridge (known locally as Pateley) is a small market town in Nidderdale in the Borough of Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England, on the River Nidd.

It has the oldest sweet shop in England^[1] and is the home of the Nidderdale Museum.

The last Dales agricultural show of the year, the Nidderdale Show, is held annually on the showground by the River Nidd. The show attracts over 14000 visitors each year.

Pateley was first recorded in the 12th century. It takes its name from the Old English paða-leah, meaning ""clearing near the paths"" and referring to paths up Nidderdale and from Ripon to Craven, which intersected here.^[2] The local story that the name comes from 'Pate', an old Yorkshire dialect word for 'Badger',^[3] is incorrect.^[4]

In 1320 the Archbishop of York granted a charter for a market and fair at Pateley.^[5]

Until 1964, Pateley was the terminus of the railway line running up Nidderdale from Nidd Valley Junction, near Harrogate. Between 1907 and 1937, the Nidd Valley Light Railway ran farther up the dale. Access is now by road, with an hourly bus service from Harrogate.^[6]
