Edenthorpe
Edenthorpe is a village and civil parish on the eastern edge of Doncaster, South Yorkshire, England. At the 2001 census, it had a population of 4,752, increasing slightly to 4,776 at the 2011 Census. The village lies to the north east of Doncaster town centre. History Edenthorpe is mentioned in the Domesday Book as a Saxon manor called Stirestrop, later known as Tristrop. At the beginning of the seventeenth century, it became Streethorpe, a village on the street, a road from Doncaster to Goole. The modern derivation of the name came about because of the ''Eden'' family (the Eden's of Streethorpe), whose influence in the 1920s, resulted in a shortening of the address into just ''Edenthorpe''. Another story states that Lord Auckland, a member of the Eden family, bought the manor house in 1874 and renamed the estate ''Edenthorpe'', from where the village took its new name. The village's first major residents were the Swyfts, who built the Manor House. In 1605. After the family fo ...
