Travel Information and nearby accommodation

A large town on the Don River, northeast of Sheffield, with a heritage of coal and iron mining. The large minster church is a fine example of Perpendicular architecture, built upon the site of a Saxon church. The superb Chapel of Jesus was built by Thomas Rotherham, a 15th century Archbishop of York. There is a chantry chapel, known as the Chapel on the Bridge, built into a 15th century bridge across the river. Nearby is the 18th century folly known as Boston Castle.
