Tickhill Market Town

Tickhill is a charming market town on the border with Nottinghamshire. 

Specialist and independent shops offer something different from the normal high street brands found in many places. St Mary's Church is a fine 13th century building and reflects the former imporatance of this town, as indeed does Tickhill Castle. Much of the castle wall and moat remain although the castle was effectively destroyed in the Civil War. Today the castle is a private residence leased by the Duchy of Lancaster, but opens to visitors one day each year.

St Leonard's Hospital, which was originally a monastic building, dates from around 1470 and is a Grade II* listed half timbered building.
