Nice place to spend some time

Lots of pubs - even the police walk round in pairs
In a nutshell
We've got it easy here. Everything is within easy reach without the mass congestion and over crowding of big cities
Pomocub Says: Yorkshire Wildlife Park is a Zoo park which is in Doncaster, South Yorkshire. The park is an ideal family day out but isn't just centred around children so it is still a good place to go if you are an adult. What I found great about the wildlife park is that it has walk...
DAO Says: SO THIS IS CHRISTMAS.Meet Toby! Toby is a good dog. He is a family pet. Totally trained and housebroken. He is great to walk and is very gentle on a lead. Toby seems to be an interesting mix between a Lurcher (definitely) and something taller like an Irish Wolfhound. I...
tim07 Says: Conisbrough Castle is 4.5 miles south west of Doncaster. Conisbrough is on the Doncaster to Sheffield rail route. On the day I visited there were two trains a hour in either direction. The castle is well worth a visit, please see my Conisbrough page for more details and...
justin1987 Says: Lakeside is the place to be if you want to go ice skating, swimming, football go to see a film, go shopping and a football match (Doncaster Rovers). I recommend going to the Lakeside Village for shopping as clothes and other useless stuff is cheap as chips!
DAO Says: MOUNT PLEASANT DOGS HOME.Mount Pleasant is a temporary and loving home for Dogs that really need help. Many have no name and are brought here by Dog Wardens from 3 towns, including Wakefield where I live. Others are brought here when their owners have passed away or have...

It’s the UK’s newest purpose built international Airport. It was built on the site of the former RAF Finningley. The base was opened in 1936 and served as a Bomber Command base during World War II and the Cold War. The Ministry of Defence closed the base in April 1996 and it was feared that this would be the end. In June 1999 Peel Holdings purchased the site with the view to turning it into a commercial/passenger airport serving 2.3m passengers and 62,000 tonnes of freight. Why did they call it Robin Hood? Who knows.

ardelean Says: Get up early on a Sunday morning if you want to get a bargain. There are good things and there are cheap things, but you will have to work hard to find good cheap things.Clothes for kids and babies cost £1 a garment!
Yorkshire Outlet: Factory Outlets
ardelean Says: Get out of the centre of town and visit the Yorkshire Outlet, which has lots of factory shops selling extra production at knock down prices - Clarks shoes - £39.99 for £15, also fashion clothes, shavers and many, many other things. whatever takes your fancy
DAO Says: Stocks are wonderful devices used for public humiliation, mild beatings, and torture. Obviously a suitable punishment for criminals. The miscreant has his/her head, arms and feet placed through wooden frames to make them immobile. Then the fun begins. At the very least the...
ardelean Says: In the days of the pit (local name for coal mines), people rose early and slept early, so restaurants tempted customers by lowering the price between 17.00 and 19.00 hours.If you look carefully, then you will find many special offers and deals in hotels and restaruants if...
DAO Says: Is the wrapper of your chocolate bar worth over $100? It will be if you throw it on the ground. Many cities in the UK now have Wardens (read pseudo-Police) that walk around town centres looking for people littering. They then fine you ON THE SPOT. There are rubbish bins and...
justin1987 Says: Doncaster has murderers, rapists, chavs, drugs, etc like any town. Never venture out of town centre at night into rough areas like the Beckett Road area, Hyde Park, Balby, Hexthorpe and Bentley.Also stay off North Bridge nr the bus station at night. Your just asking to be...

One lazy hazy Sunday, take a trip into Thorne and have a pub lunch in one of the many taverns, then a short walk by the canal, looking at the narrow boats and then a rest in the park listening to the band.
The band plays most Sundays throughout the summer, rain or shine.
Unfortunately, the post box has been removed and the building demolished. A shame really as the shop and its owner were the basis for the sitcom 'Open All Hours' with the two Ronnies, but time passes .......

vladivir Says: DONCASTER KNIGHTS play in National Division One. They won promotion to that level in April 2005. Their last promotion was the 8th in fifteen seasons of league rugby! An incrdible achievement in English rugby. In August 2006 the decision was made to rename as the DONCASTER...
vladivir Says: If you want to get lucky in Doncaster, go to the famous Doncaster Racecourse. Doncaster has been famous for horse racing and gambling for centuries. The new race ground is a high tech venue that can cater for any taste. If you just fancy a horse you can get inexpensive...
