In the same year, Joseph Taite built a house for the accommodation of visitors in Boston Spa. This would become known as the Royal Hotel - still standing, but now converted into flats and shops. By 1819 Boston Spa had a population of over 600, and several inns and other houses offering accommodation. The spa baths had also been built by this time to allow visitors to take the waters. On the east bank of the river lies the village of Thorp Arch which predates Boston Spa by several centuries. Thorp Arch hosted a World War II Royal Ordnance Factory, ROF Thorp Arch, an ammunition Filling Factory. ROF Thorp Arch finally closed in 1957. Part of the site is the home of the Northern Reading Room, Northern Listening Service and Document Supply Collection of the British Library. The remainder of the site is occupied by Thorp Arch Trading Estate and two prisons, now combined as Wealstun Prison. Boston Spa School is the local secondary school with a quite diffuse catchment area, typically taking students from areas which also feed comprehensives in Wetherby, Garforth and Pendas Fields.
Coronavirus restrictions were eased on Monday morning with six people from different households now allowed to mix outdoors across England.

Copyright: PA Media Police found 12 people gathered inside an "incredibly dangerous" building in the countryside near Chester on Saturday night. Most admitted they were "paranormal activity investigators" while some claimed to be "urban explorers". The ghost-hunters had travelled from West Yorkshire and Derbyshire, said a Cheshire Police spokesman. "There were no permissions granted for anyone to be in the building which was in a poor state of repair, " he added. "As a result, it was an incredibly dangerous place to be, with parts of the building subject to collapse. "
