Town: The Domesday Book is mentioned in the history of the Yorkshire village of Tickhill. The 12th-century Tickhill Castle, which has a colourful history that includes a battle between Prince John and his brother King Richard I and Oliver Cromwell's visit during the English Civil War, is one of the many traditional stores and pubs in this charming town. Tickhill Castle is still a striking ruin today, complete with an accessible Norman gatehouse, foundations, and moat. There are many different types of ducks in the gorgeous millpond, and it has a lovely circular walk that is a terrific way to explore the area. The 10 miles away Doncaster Races are in a great location for Tickhill, and it only takes 20 minutes to drive to Sheffield's vibrant lights, theatres, and shopping. Within easy driving distance are the Peak District National Park, Alton Towers, and Sherwood Forest, famously known as Robin Hood's home. It is possible to visit Bawtry, the Mayflower Pilgrim Fathers' home town, and Lincoln is about 40 minutes away. A little further afield are the Lincolnshire coast, York, Leeds, and The Deep submarium in Hull.In the Oxfordshire Cotswolds, 3 miles from Woodstock, the location of Blenheim Palace, and around 8 miles north of Oxford, is the charming village of Tackley. The words "tack" and "ley," which both indicate glade or clearing, were combined to create the name Tackley.
