Hexthorpe
Hexthorpe is a small village located on the edge of the town of Doncaster. Hexthorpe lies in the Metropolitan Borough of Doncaster, South Yorkshire, England. Historically part of the West Riding of Yorkshire, the area's shape resembles a rhombus, with borders with Balby and Doncaster town centre, separated by railway lines and the river separating the area from the villages of Sprotborough, Newton and Cusworth. A grade II listed building, the Hexthorpe House, was a well known pub in the area. The pub front was listed for historic reasons. Following a fire, the pub remained derelict for a few months and the council demolished the remains. The old pub sign was saved and has now been erected in Hexthorpe Flatts Park. == History == During until the late 1960s and early 1970s, the area was of a decent standard, housing many of its own shops. The area today is a shadow of its former self, with much of Hexthorpe towards the town centre in a state of decline. There is a large ethnic minority population in the area, with residents from China, Kosovo, India and Pakistan, Turkey and Jamaica living in the area. More recently, large numbers of Romani have settled in Hexthorpe. The area towards the park is deemed to be more affluent. The houses surrounding the park and the river are the more sought after locations.
