The iconic Crescent Gardens, located in the heart of Harrogate has been home to Harrogate Borough Council since 1930. Orignally built in the late 18th Century, the landmark building has now been deemed to expensive to maintain by the Council. The Council will be relocating to new premises on Knapping Mount.

Due to the closure of Crescent Gardens, it was necessary to install a number of fibre optic and multicore telephone cables to maintain services within various remote buildings located throughout the town. The works included the installation of extensive tray work and removal of redundant cabling. The Council are due to vacate Crescent Gardens this Spring.
