Emerging from the banks of the River Don, the city of Doncaster is steeped in a diverse history dating all the way back to Roman times, when it was known as Danum. From its origins as an important passage on a Roman road, to the medieval charm it exhibits with elements such as the Church of St Mary Magdalene where the market has been held since Norman times, there is much to discover about this city's intriguing past.

Doncaster's strategic significance is demonstrated by its positioning on the Great North Road, the central route between London and Edinburgh, and its historical involvement in the Pilgrimage of Grace rebellion. This city, now a vibrant metropolitan hub, has overcome challenges such as the closure of coal mines which spurred its development into a dynamic service industry. With scenic surroundings characterised by low rolling hills, floodplains, and nature reserves such as Thorne and Hatfield Moors, Doncaster presents an engaging blend of urban and natural splendour.

When to visit Doncaster

Although Doncaster tends to experience cooler temperatures for much of the year, the warmest months to visit are during the summer, specifically July, August, and June which offer milder climates.
