About Wombwell
- Elsecar Heritage Centre, just 3 miles from Wombwell, is one of the finest industrial heritage sites in South Yorkshire, centred on the Elsecar ironworks and colliery established by the Earls Fitzwilliam in the 18th century. The centre includes a working Newcomen-type beam engine — the only one in the world still in its original location.

- The Dearne Valley around Wombwell was one of the most productive coalfields in South Yorkshire during the 19th and early 20th centuries. The last colliery in the area closed in the 1990s, but the mining community's culture and values remain central to the town's identity.
