Around our Village
Information about the village
Our lovely village is situated in the heart of South Yorkshire and has commanding views over the Dearne Valley. Ours is a rural community that has only slightly expanded in recent times. As a settlement we were mentioned in the Domesday Book. We have an exciting future with the opening of film and television studios on the old college campus site
St. James Church
Our church has Saxon origins but the main part of the existing building was established about 1100 AD and handed over to Avice de Tania in 1153 AD to be put under the care of the Cistercian nuns at Hampole
The Ice House
One of the country’s earliest examples of a structure designed to keep edibles and refreshments cool, a testament to the innovation displayed by our ancestors in the age before electricity.
