Wilthorpe is an area of Barnsley in South Yorkshire, England. Bisected by the A635 Huddersfield Road, Wilthorpe has several small shops and an infant school,[1] as well as an ATS garage and a dentist. Wilthorpe sits in the S75 area of Barnsley, along with the neighbouring districts of Pogmoor, Gawber, and Mapplewell. The village is popular among young professionals who commute to the cities of Leeds, Sheffield and Manchester. AmenitiesThe local pub, The Wilthorpe Hotel, closed in early 2012 and re-opened later that year as a Tesco Express.[2] The main attraction in Wilthorpe is the park, with stunning rose gardens, a reclaimed wildlife area, and a playground. Tinkers Pond is situated at the bottom of Woodstock Road. This fishing spot used to be a mine shaft and is reported to be at least 500 ft deep in the centre. The Emmanuel Church, which was built in the late 1990s, serves the area. It also functions as a village hall with several events and clubs held there every week. Barnsley Business Innovation CentreWilthorpe is home to the Barnsley Business and Innovation Centre (BBIC). This was established in 1987 as a private company (limited by guarantee), with a mission to assist in the economic regeneration of the Barnsley Borough.
