Boston Castle & Park

Venues

Boston Castle, a distinctive square, two-storey building, stands prominently on one of the highest points in Rotherham. Built in 1775 by the Earl of Effingham, it was originally a hunting lodge and was named Boston Castle to commemorate the Boston Tea Party. Today, Boston Castle serves as a small visitor attraction, offering historical information, displays on the castle's history, an interactive touch screen, and children's costumes and games.

Adjacent to the castle is Boston Park, which spans over eight hectares at the end of Boston Castle Grove. The park is bordered by Canklow Woods, an ancient woodland. Initially, the park featured extensive gardens, a cricket ground, a bowling and croquet lawn, and an open area for gymnastics. Presently, the park maintains its attractive garden area and large open spaces for informal recreation and walking, making it a popular spot for visitors.

Boston Castle is available for exclusive use to hire, as well as the hire of Earl’s Room.

The Earl’s Room is a meeting room that can accommodate up to 30 people.

WIFI is available in addition to a range of equipment and refreshments.

The amphitheatre space is also available to use and hire separately for small public performances.
