About

Wheatley Hills is a residential suburb of Doncaster in South Yorkshire, set on higher ground to the east of the town centre. Much of the area was developed in the mid-20th century and is made up of streets of semi-detached and terraced houses, local shops, churches and schools. Community life centres on a small parade of shops and a community centre, with playing fields and parks used for football, cricket and informal recreation. The slight rise in terrain gives a regular presence of long straight roads and back streets running off them, which shapes how the neighbourhood is navigated.

Services are focused on day-to-day needs: primary schools, takeaways and convenience stores sit alongside small employers and social clubs. Regular bus routes connect the area with Doncaster centre for wider services and rail connections. Local volunteer groups run allotments and match fixtures on the playing fields, and the pattern of postwar housing and green space remains the defining feature of Wheatley Hills.
