Cusworth is a village and suburb of Doncaster in South Yorkshire, England, located 2 miles (3.2 km) to its north-west within the civil parish of Sprotbrough and Cusworth and the City of Doncaster, with a population of 4,728.[a] It is home to Cusworth Hall, an 18th century country house, and its surrounding parkland. Some buildings in the old village can be dated back to the 16th century.[1]
The village's historic cottages, semi-rural location and situation on the edge of a plateau has led to it sometimes being referred to as ‘a piece of the Cotswolds in Yorkshire’.[2]
