Harewood (pronounced 'Hair-wood') is a village in the county of West Yorkshire, England, south of Harrogate. The A61 runs through the village, from Leeds in the south to Harrogate in the north. The A659 runs through the village from Collingham to the east, briefly joining the A61 to descend the slopes of the Wharfe valley before continuing towards Pool-in-Wharfedale.
The village is mainly known for its vicinity to Harewood House (pronounced 'Har-wood'), a stately home, and to Harewood Hillclimb.
The exterior set for the soap opera Emmerdale is located within the estate.[1]
