About Sprotbrough

Sprotbrough lies in the valley of the River Don, it is a lovely rural location with fertile fields and meadows leading from leafy lanes whose hedgerows are full of wild plants and flowers.

The charm of the village lies in its quaint stone cottages, inns, historic church and rippling waterway. The Boot Inn is a noted canal-side pub where visitors can enjoy a meal and a drink followed by a stroll along the densely wooded tow path to enjoy the life of the canal, its picturesque lock and distant views of the AI viaduct. Or to enjoy the canal more fully, why not hire a boat from the local boatyard and explore the lovely scenery at a leisurely four miles an hour!

A focal point of the village is its magnificent church dedicated to St. Mary. This is believed to date from 1190 and has an impressive working clock tower with a peal of eight bells. From the tower there are commanding views over the Don Valley.

This "off the beaten track" village is ideal for anyone wishing to uncover the pretty hamlets and villages of this part of South Yorkshire. It is sufficiently close to Doncaster for anyone looking for larger shops, nightlife, and the excitement of a renowned racecourse.
