- Rotherham is a town in South Yorkshire, England. It is the largest settlement in the Metropolitan Borough of Rotherham. Rotherham is named after the River Rother, one of two major rivers (the other being the River Don) to flow through the town.
Before the Industrial Revolution, traditional industries included farming, glass making and flour milling. In the late 18th and 19th centuries, Rotherham became known for its coal mining and, later, steel industries.
The town's historic county is Yorkshire, and Rotherham once formed part of the West Riding of Yorkshire administrative county. In 1974, this administrative county was abolished during a reorganisation of local government. Subsequently, Rotherham became part of the county of South Yorkshire, where it makes up one of four metropolitan boroughs.
I went along to see what the Town centre is like today..
Nice tour of Rotherham. Well done on the sneaky park. Lovely blossoms. Lots of shutters but maybe that is because it’s a Sunday, some very interesting architecture. A very worthy place to visit. Love the art gallery. ❤
Thanks...it really seemed like spring was here....but today i had to scrape ice off the car windows and this afternoon it has been raining heavy for 5 hours...just as things were beginning to dry out...lets hope for some mud free paths this weekend.
Good tour, l thanks. The park looks lovely.
Thanks Pal...really good of you to take time to watch and comment....it's appreciated
Thanks for a walk around Rotherham Steve, it's been a long time since we've been to the centre.
Park looked great and so nice to hear that families are out using it.
Loved all the blossom on the trees
Glad you managed to find the time for a pint.
Hope you're having a good week
Thank you...my first visit to the town centre...it has a bad name but i thought it was a pretty good place...cheers folks.
Nice one Steve. Drove through Rotherham a time or two. But never visited. Thanks for taking us on a tour 👌
Thanks Gavin...glad you could come along
Lovely day for a walk Steven. The park looks nice. The town too. Sounds like more folks need to calm down and take a walk themselves. Cheers!
Yes they do...this was a lovely way to spend a few hours while my wife was at work.
Look at those marvelous signs of spring!! Blooms and leaves on the great go! Seems like you hit a quiet part of town or an equally quiet time of day. Pretty nice for sure! Maybe everyone was at the fair...awesome!!
Thanks Bruce...i thought spring had arrived but i had to scrape ice off my car windows this morning....it must get better soon.
Nice to see some of a town I’ve never visited., as you say a lovely park! Thank you.
Thanks Sylvia...lovely of you to watch and comment...thanks.
Beautiful tour ❤! Lots of love and respect from a solo mountain hiker from the Hindu Kush Mountains Lower Chitral District of Pakistan!
Thanks so much...always lovely to hear from you.
Beautiful video. Thank you. 👍31
Thanks for visiting
Thanks Steve. Looks like an interesting town for a day out. The park looks very nice too 😊
Thanks Rachel...as towns go i was quite impressed with this one.
The park looks large with lots to do. Love the blossom. We enjoy a Sunday walk. Thank you for showing us around. It's a town we've never been too. Was interesting to see. Always like to explore different towns. Best wishes Dave and Dawn ❤️
Thanks Dave and Dawn...only a few miles from where i live but never been to the town, so enjoyed having a look around.
Know Rotherham very well from earlier days. Used to visit someone living in that area and often went into that park.
Thank you...yes the park is a popular spot...a park that does Rotherham proud.
That’s very nice walking tour with a beautiful views and lovely, stunning views ❤️. Have a great day 👍. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪.
Thanks...really appreciate your comment.
Another awesome video my friend, stay blessed
Thank you! You too!
It is great Steven to see the towns up in your neck of the woods, especially with the lovely spring blossom and fresh leaves on the trees. Sometimes its nice going somewhere without having researched it and seeing what you can find. There looks to be some beautiful parts of the town, but also a dodgy part or two, but doesn't every town!
Thanks Nettie...Rotherham has a bad reputation, but i was quite impressed, like you say there is good and bad everywhere...thanks for watching
Thanks for sharing this my travel friend I love Yorkshire 😊all the best from me in Birmingham
Hi Paul...thanks for watching and taking time to comment, it's much appreciated.
@@atrampinthehills.841 welcome 🙏 🤗
Looked lovely here and with interesting history. Loved the blossom trees akf the park is great for families with the funfair and crazy golf and train, skatepark and museum. Nice look around and it looks like you enjoyed the drink at the pub too 🙂 ~ Anna
Thanks Anna...the park was amazing..i later learnt that it wins lots of awards,,,thanks for watching
Hi Steven, thanks for the tour of Rotherham, I've worked in Rotherham quite a few times. Clifton Park looked nice. atb mate, Cheers Glenn it's 👍from me
Thanks Glynn...i work in Rotherham now but this was my first visit to the town centre...i quite enjoyed it ....cheers mate
I've never visited Rotherham, but it was not what I imagined. There is lots of great architecture in the town centre and the park looked impressive.
Thanks Andy...it's not a bad little town...cheers mate
I live in Rotherham though originally from the Black Country. I live about 5 minutes walk from Clifton Park. The park itself is beautiful, a lot of the surrounding area is not...
@@Bad-wolfe thanks for the comment...the town is a bit rough around the edges but there are a lot worse places...i was well impressed with Clifton park.
Looks like a nice town to explore😃
Those kids were pretty loud! I'd avoid that area, lol😁
Evening Age...yes i enjoyed this little wander around the town
Never been to Rotherham and it looks better than I expected. Those blossoms help out tho. Great looking church and tidy centre👍
Thanks Paul...it's not bad to be fair...the town centre has been dying for years thanks to the close proximity of Meadowhall and Parkgate shopping centres but it is hanging on in there [ just ]
Looks a nice place and not at all what I’d expected 👍
Thanks Phil...yes not what i expected either, a nice surprise.
Looks like the park &museum were the best bits Stephen..the bandstand &children’s area were great 😊..but it was more quieter in that town then most towns on a Sunday ..I think there should be a none car day &on a Sunday …but I’ll probably get slated for saying that 😂..thanks steven for sharing your day 😊
Thanks Ruth...yeah the park was the highlight for me..a no car Sunday sounds like a great idea.
Very nice tour of Rotherham Steven, I watched as I ate my porridge breakfast. Colourful park, mixed new and old city dwellings and even a fun fair, how good is that? Yes very nice indeed and could only be bettered by the inclusion of Karen. Cheers Mike. 👍🍺
Thanks Michael...Unfortunetly [ i know that is spelt wrong ] Karen was at work again, however she will be back out this weekend for a walk with the charming Jill and Nick...we will make a video hopefully with all the usual shenanagins..Hope the Porridge was nice.
@@atrampinthehills.841hi Stephen and the porridge was delicious. Can’t wait to see Karen out and about next week. Nick & Jill as well! Bloody hell let me spin you round and check it out!

Thanks pal...real kind of you.
I love the Pink trees, i though maybe they were my beloved crab apple, you can have your own cheery blossom festival to rival Japan!
Ha Ha...yeah maybe not quite up to Japanese standards...thanks for the comment
Sunday druggie puch up lol hahaha class at least you squeezed a pint in steve lol only ever been here once and can honestly say dont remember any of it as i was just dropping a pal off but some nice buildings here 👍
Yeah...those two druggie women were really going for it...Funny thing was they had no teeth to knock out ...ha ha...cheers mate.
i,ll be not to far from that park tomorrow with work mite go for a look on my brake 👌👌👌
Well worth a look mate.
Looking like you had one of those rare British sunny days 😂 never been there until now 😊
😅😅😅 you had a bit of entertainment, then the two women 😂 it looks a bit to quite still a good pint John Smiths 👌 it wasn't much of pub then 😉 11:47
Thanks Mark...yeah the 2 women fighting was quite entertaining...they looked like they were trying to knock each others teeth out....thing is...they never had a tooth between them....ha ha
Maybe just because it was a Sunday, but Rotherham looked like it had seen better days and wasn't quite sure how to get them back....PS Nothing wrong with John Smiths, but I prefer Sam's if there's a choice.
Thanks Tom..yeah pretty quiet on a Sunday, but pretty quiet all week from what i hear...thanks for watching and commenting mate.
