Throapham is a hamlet in the county of South Yorkshire in the north centre of England. Tickhill is just six and a half miles away, Worksop around seven and a half miles and Rotherham is another eight miles away.
Thropham has an ancient Norman church parts of whose architecture can be traced to the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. The church was declared redundant in 1985 by the Church Commission.
Throapham initially was an independent village with farm lands that separated it from the neighbouring town of Dinnington. As time went by and the progress of industrialisation took place the gap between the two vanished. By the end of the world war there was just one thin town that extended from Dinnington and Thropham all the way to Anston. The entire length of the town extended three miles.
