Goring House, once the home of local author Stan Barstow, is virtually all that remains of an ambitious project by Batley Carr entrepreneur Mathew Wharton at the end of the 19th century, to develop part of 'Ossett Common' as a 'Little Harrogate' and develop the benefits of 'the Spa' waters.'In 1884, part of the Ossett Spa estate was taken over by Wharton, with the aim of developing it as the new 'Montpelier Pleasure Grounds', with extensive gardens, a boating lake, rides and amusements. The scheme launched with a grand Victorian fair that included the roasting of an ox and allegedly the famed Charles Blondin, tightrope walker performing. Sadly, the venture was not successful and by June 1884, Wharton was bankrupt.
Goring House was built by John Tennant, who was a business associate of Mathew Wharton and a builder and property developer from Dewsbury. In 1888, he is said to have committed suicide in one of the bedrooms at Goring House, having also encountered severe financial difficulties. The lime trees, which still form avenues in Goring Park Avenue and adjoining roads, were planted in 1864 and , with Goring House, stand as a single memorial of Mathew Wharton's scheme to develop this part of Ossett as a 'little Harrogate'.
