Welcome to Waleswood

Waleswood is a small village located in the Metropolitan Borough of Rotherham, South Yorkshire, England. The village is situated on the eastern edge of the borough, close to the border with Sheffield. The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside, with the Rother Valley Country Park and the Peak District National Park both within easy reach. The village is also home to a number of local amenities, including a primary school, a post office, and a village hall.

One of the main attractions of Waleswood is its proximity to the Rother Valley Country Park. The park covers over 750 acres of land and includes a number of lakes, woodlands, and meadows. The park is a popular destination for walkers, cyclists, and anglers, and there are a number of trails and paths that wind their way through the park. The park is also home to a number of wildlife species, including deer, foxes, and badgers.

Waleswood is also home to a number of historic buildings and landmarks. One of the most notable is the Waleswood Colliery, which was once one of the largest coal mines in the area. The colliery closed in the 1980s, but the site has since been redeveloped into a business park. Other historic buildings in the village include the St. John the Evangelist Church, which dates back to the 19th century, and the Waleswood Village Hall, which was built in the 1920s.
