Farnham is a village and civil parish in the former Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, England. It is situated 2 miles (3.2 km) north of Knaresborough.
History
The village is mentioned in the Domesday Book as having one household and 26 ploughlands. The name derives from the Old English of Feran-hām, meaning the homestead where the ferns grew. St Oswald's Church, Farnham, the Anglican church, dates back to the 12th century and is grade I listed.
Farnham Gravel Pits were worked between 1941 and 1985. The pits later filled with water and cover an area of 200 acres (81 ha). The pits hosted Britain's first Pacific diver in January and February 2007.
The Knaresborough Hoard of Roman vessels found in 1864 was probably discovered near Farnham.
Farnham is the location of a large factory, Treves UK which makes automotive components. Farnham is served by five buses each way per day between Knaresborough and York.
Governance
Historically, the village was in the wapentake of Claro, in the West Riding of Yorkshire. It was moved into North Yorkshire in 1974 and was part of the Harrogate District until 2023.
