Open Homes workspaceAbout Rotherham
Rotherham, where the River Rother meets the Don in South Yorkshire, grew as an iron, steel and coal town closely tied to nearby Sheffield. Its medieval Chapel on the Bridge is a rare survival, and the grand Wentworth Woodhouse nearby has one of the longest country-house façades in Europe. The Magna Science Adventure Centre now occupies a former steelworks. Affordable housing and good motorway and rail links keep Rotherham's rental market steady.
