Rossington is two villages in one, the old church village by the Torne, and New Rossington, the planned colliery town laid out in confident circles for the pit between the wars, while today one of the country's great logistics parks hums on its doorstep, putting the village back at the centre of the moving world.
Rossington is two villages in one parish, the old village around its Norman-doored church and the colliery 'New Rossington' built whole in the 1910s, avenues radiating from the welfare in textbook model-village style — and the parkland of the old hall now carries the racehorse gallops and bridleways between them.
Rossington pairs an old church village with New Rossington, the planned colliery town laid out whole in the 1910s, its avenues radiating from the welfare in textbook model-village style — and adds a great deal of modern and new-build housing, with major schemes underway (Albemarle's proposed neighbourhood off Littleworth Lane among them) drawn by the iPort logistics park alongside. The planned pit town gives the security advice its sharpest point: standardised housing built to one pattern means a common weakness repeats by the street, the same door type, the same standard of cylinder, door after door, which is exactly what makes a uniform town worth a burglar's while. But it also means one standard fix, the anti-snap cylinder upgrade, pays off at the same scale. So the move across New Rossington is consistent: a TS007 three-star anti-snap cylinder on the uPVC and composite doors, a British Standard five-lever mortice deadlock on any timber, and the terraces' rear yards and gates brought up to the same standard. The new-build homes carry the developer's basic cylinder, worth upgrading from day one; the old-village period doors take sympathetic British Standard work; and a Sold Secure padlock looks after sheds and garages.
Planned pit towns share standardised housing where one common weakness repeats by the street — and where one standard fix, the anti-snap cylinder upgrade, pays off at the same scale, with the new-build estates worth the same upgrade from day one. The how and why are on our Doncaster locksmith page.
