Kiveton Park Rural District

Kiveton Park was a rural district in the West Riding of Yorkshire from 1894 to 1974. It was formed under the Local Government Act 1894 from that part of the Worksop rural sanitary district which was in the West Riding – the rest going to form Worksop Rural District in Nottinghamshire and Clowne Rural District in Derbyshire. The rural district took its name from the village of Kiveton Park. The rural district originally comprised 11 civil parishes: Dinnington Firbeck Gildingwells Harthill with Woodall Letwell North and South Anston St Johns with Throapham Thorpe Salvin Todwick Wales Woodsetts In 1954 the number of parishes was reduced to 10 when Dinnington and St Johns with Throapham were merged to form Dinnington St John's.

Rotherham

Rotherham ( RODH-ər-əm) is a market town in South Yorkshire, England. It lies at the confluence of the River Rother, from which the town gets its name, and the River Don. It is the largest settlement of the Metropolitan Borough of Rotherham. 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 was once part of the West Riding of Yorkshire. 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. Rotherham had a population of 109,691 in the 2011 census. The borough had a 2024 population of 276,595, the 64th most populous district in England.
