Parkgate, Rotherham

Parkgate, Rotherham

Parkgate is located in South Yorkshire, England. It has since been consumed by its neighbour Rawmarsh, from which it has been indistinguishable since the early 20th century. Its name is said to originate from its location at the end point of the estate of the Clifton family of Rotherham. It has a distinctive shopping centre called Retail World with many shops selling a variety of goods.

There is a football club, Parkgate F.C., based in the suburb.
