Miller Homes - The Fairways

A little over half a mile from the A6195 Dearne Valley Parkway and half an hour’s drive from Sheffield, The Fairways has excellent transport connections. Trains from Wombwell Station run to Huddersfield, Sheffield and Leeds, reaching Sheffield in less than 25 minutes and Leeds in around an hour. Barnsley is five minutes away by rail. Buses to Barnsley, Doncaster and Rotherham stop nearby, and National Cycle Routes 62 and 67 both pass half a mile from the development. The High Street presents an eclectic choice of shops, pubs, cafés and hairdressers. There are newsagents and convenience stores, a Post Office, a Tesco Express, pharmacies, a hardware store and other specialists, alongside food takeaways. A mile away, Cortonwood Retail Park includes larger stores such as a Morrisons Supermarket and garden centre, Argos, B&Q, Asda and M&S. Wombwell’s Amateur Dramatic and Operatic Societies each have their own theatre, while the Old Town Hall, near the local library, is now a pub with live music at weekends. Sports and leisure amenities include the nine-hole Hillies Golf Course, a few yards from the development, and there are two gyms in the town centre and a swimming pool near Broomhill Park. More unusual attractions include the fascinating Elsecar Heritage Village and, in complete contrast, the Britannia Flight Simulator which presents the opportunity to ‘fly’ a Boeing 737. Both are around two miles away. The short trip into Barnsley opens up a choice of cinemas, theatres and special events at the Metrodome.
