Thorne, Administrative division in Doncaster, England.
Located 11 miles northeast of Doncaster, Thorne spans across a flat terrain with canals, two railway stations, and direct access to M18 and M180 motorways.
During the mid-17th century, Cornelius Vermuyden transformed thousands of acres of Thorne marshes into agricultural land through extensive drainage systems and engineering works.
The parish church of Saint Nicholas stands as a grade I listed structure, incorporating architectural elements from the 12th through 15th centuries.
The town maintains two distinct railway stations, Thorne North and Thorne South, providing regular connections to regional transportation networks throughout South Yorkshire.
