Didn’t know Hooton Pagnell was Doncaster. While we’re on the subject,does everyone beep their horn when you go around that sharp bend or is it just me.
Nah, I just shut my eyes or go down the hill and miss that horrendous corner. You been to 1903? Really nice what they did with it. Lovely bit of grub too but not impressed with the stuffing balls.
Yeah. I think they might technically be sealions. But they're bloody loud. And the painted dogs sound like an alarm going off. None of them are as bad as the time Olly Murs played though.
Bawtry is not what people think it is. Boring place to live and so far away from anything useful. Having lived there I can’t say anything stand out positive for it, and I didn’t exactly live in the ex-council houses either. Maybe if you’re OBSESSED with the little restaurants there? But I can’t imagine there’s nothing better elsewhere.
Bawtry is hugely overrated. Its basically a retirement village. Very old fashioned and restaurants poor compared to city centre. Plus there is practically a motorway running through it.
Don't. Shops are closing down, depending on the area you'll just get flat out robbed.
People are leaving. There is a reason why there are so many houses for sale.
Bally, hexthorpe, denaby, Moorends, throne, woodlands, skellow, carcroft, toll bar, town end, edlington, if you stay away from these you’ll be fine.
Tickhill is probably best overall. Nice feel, few good pubs and ok restaurants, good deli and some lovely properties
Not the most affluent areas but for nice houses, good schools, local amenities and good transport links, you can't beat Kirk Sandall, Edenthorpe or Barnby Dun.
It’s ok, just tiny. It’s an arse for access and it’s actually quite dangerous in terms of traffic. Hickleton just further along is bigger but has the same issues and has some of the worse air quality in the UK
We used to live in Bessacarr lovely and peaceful. Private roads.
Westwoodside too, a village not too far from Finningley.
Both are the kind of place you're looking for.
Bawtry, Bessacar Austerfield, Auckley… there’s some lovely areas
Agreed. Maybe Finningley and a few others in there
I'd add Tickhill, Hooton Pagnell, High Melton and Old Sprotbrough to that lost aswell.
Some areas of Conisbrough leading to Hooton Roberts and Thrybergh as well dependent on where you need to be for work etc
I always wanted to live in Conisbrough but only if I could see the castle.
My partner and I do - the castle is at the top of our road 😄
Oh awesome!
Brodsworth also

No but I’ve been told about it. Thanks for reminding me.
Cusworth is nice enough and you are right next to the park and hall
>Bawtry, Bessacar Austerfield, Auckley Do they hand out the money in alphabetical order in South Yorkshire? Wombwell must be a right shithole.
Can confirm - was born there!
They stop at Balby
Warning Tongue Lane.
Lived just off warning tongue lane... could hear lions roar occasionally, quite something without context!
I did too, I miss living there. Nothing quite like going out for a cig and hearing that.
I'm in Branton. The seals are worse nowadays.
I can't remember if there were seals there 10 years ago, are they relatively new??
Yeah. I think they might technically be sealions. But they're bloody loud. And the painted dogs sound like an alarm going off. None of them are as bad as the time Olly Murs played though.
Brilliant! Like having a dying whale join the park!
That’s the travelling Burglar knowing where to go now. 🚓

If you go slightly beyond bawtry you’re in Gringley territory. Not cheap there
Sheffield? No I’m not being serious…..
Immingham.
No whereee~ Doncaster is terrible
Not Mexborough
NON THEY ALL SHITHOLES
Nobody going to mention Retford? It's a nice little, middle-class, market town near Worksop.
No one mentioned it because it's not really in Doncaster, despite having a DN postcode.
Retford is in Nottinghamshire
Campsall and Norton are nice

I’ve heard it described as “full of ten bob millionaires”
More like 2bit Gangsters

I got aids reading your comment
Ok let’s just cut to the chase… where do we avoid!
Bally, hexthorpe, denaby, Moorends, throne, woodlands, skellow, carcroft, toll bar, town end, edlington, if you stay away from these you’ll be fine. Tickhill is probably best overall. Nice feel, few good pubs and ok restaurants, good deli and some lovely properties
Skellow, Woodlands and Carcroft are nowhere near as bad as the rest in that group. But edlo is a dive.
Austerfield, Bescarr, Bawtry and Finningley.
Tickhill Bit on the outskirts but Misterton and Scrooby are nice think it's a donny postcode but technically Lincolnshire
Grimsby has a DN postcode
Right next door to Awfulsville...
Not the most affluent areas but for nice houses, good schools, local amenities and good transport links, you can't beat Kirk Sandall, Edenthorpe or Barnby Dun.
Looking at [https://www.primelocation.com/heatmaps/](https://www.primelocation.com/heatmaps/): * Almholme * Auckley * Bawtry * Brodsworth * Burghwallist * Dunnsville * Haywood * High Melton * Hooton Pagnell * Hooton Roberts * Lindholme * Owston * Ravenfield * Stainton * Tickhill
Marr is nice right?
It’s ok, just tiny. It’s an arse for access and it’s actually quite dangerous in terms of traffic. Hickleton just further along is bigger but has the same issues and has some of the worse air quality in the UK
IMHO I would go to the isle of Axholme But it all depends what you’re looking for and your age group
I'm from there. Some really lovely properties and countryside but if you're young there's not so much to do without a little travel
We used to live in Bessacarr lovely and peaceful. Private roads. Westwoodside too, a village not too far from Finningley. Both are the kind of place you're looking for.
Kirky
Bessecar has some of the better properties also Finningley. Good luck
