About

Laughton and Throapham lie in the rural south of the Rotherham borough in South Yorkshire, made up of two small parishes and the lanes that link them. Laughton en le Morthen forms the main village while Throapham is a smaller cluster of houses and farms. The area is defined by arable fields, hedgerows and a network of narrow roads and lanes. At the heart of Laughton the parish church sits close to older stone cottages and farm buildings, giving a clear sense of the settlement’s long history.

Local life is centered on agriculture and community facilities in Laughton, with a village hall and meeting points for residents. A network of public footpaths and bridleways runs through the fields and along parish boundaries, used by walkers and riders. Scattered stone farmhouses and former agricultural buildings reflect building styles used locally over several centuries, and the churchyard beside the village core provides a visible link to the area’s past.
