Welcome to Rawmarsh

Rawmarsh is a small town located in the Metropolitan Borough of Rotherham, South Yorkshire. The town has a rich history dating back to the 12th century when it was first mentioned in the Domesday Book. Rawmarsh was once a thriving mining town, with coal mining being the main industry in the area. However, the decline of the mining industry in the 1980s had a significant impact on the town's economy, leading to high levels of unemployment and social deprivation.

Despite the challenges faced by Rawmarsh, the town has a strong sense of community and a range of amenities for residents. The town has several primary schools, a secondary school, and a college, providing education for children and young people. Rawmarsh also has a range of shops, pubs, and restaurants, as well as a leisure centre and a library. The town is well-connected to nearby towns and cities, with good transport links to Rotherham, Sheffield, and Doncaster.

Rawmarsh is surrounded by beautiful countryside, with several parks and nature reserves in the area. The town is located close to the River Don, which provides opportunities for fishing and boating. The nearby Wentworth Woodhouse is a popular tourist attraction, with its impressive architecture and beautiful gardens. Rawmarsh is also home to several sports clubs, including football, cricket, and rugby teams, providing opportunities for residents to get involved in local sports and activities.
