More about this scene
Within easy distance of the railway station, the Royal Hotel served Ilkley's many visitors for nearly a century. It was built on the site of Mother Downes' charming thatched cottage in 1870 and was much enlarged twenty years later. At the time of closure, the thought of conversion to apartments was not yet fashionable. Demolition came in 1962 and the site was used for Wells Court and Wells Mews.
