Doncaster Mansion House

Doncaster Mansion House Explore Doncaster's elegant Mansion House, one of only three in the country.

Doncaster’s elegant Mansion House has dominated the High Street for over two hundred and fifty years. It is one of only three Mansion Houses remaining in the country along with those in London and York. Whilst the Mansion Houses of London and York provided accommodation for the mayor as one of their functions the Bristol Mansion House was built solely as a home for the mayor. Doncaster Mansion Hou

se, however, was designed as a place for corporate entertaining and, although there were several rooms to provide living accommodation, the house was never intended as a residence for the mayor in his year of office, although a few mayors made use of the rooms for this purpose.

There is also the chance to have a private guided tour of the Mansion House after the tea. The Mansion House open day will also be running on this day so if you can't stick around afterwards never fear, turn up a little earlier and join in the open day!
