About

Kimberworth lies immediately north‑west of Rotherham town centre in South Yorkshire. The area is mainly residential, with rows of Victorian terraces and pockets of later council and private housing. Kimberworth Road provides the main local shopping parade and bus routes into the town centre. Community facilities include primary schools, a community centre and places of worship; allotments and small playing fields are woven into the neighbourhood. Local services and short journeys keep daily life oriented within the suburb rather than toward the wider borough.

Kimberworth takes its name from a long public green known as Kimberworth Park, used for informal sport and events, and bordered by housing and tree-lined streets. A historic hall stands on Kimberworth Road, a reminder of the village pattern that pre‑dated later housing development. The area's growth in the late 19th and early 20th centuries reflected Rotherham's coal and steel economy, and pockets of community organisation — from sports clubs to volunteer gardening projects — remain active today.
