Hatfield, Administrative division in Doncaster, England
Hatfield sits on a gravel island surrounded by former peat moors, intersected by the M18 motorway connecting Yorkshire and Lincolnshire.
The Battle of Hatfield in 633 AD marked the death of King Edwin, who fell to Penda of Mercia and Welsh forces under Cadwallon ap Cadfan.
The Travis Trust, established in 1710, provided education for children from Hatfield, Thorne, and Wroot through a 400-acre land endowment in Yorkshire.
The town connects to major transport routes through the A18 road and shares a railway station with Stainforth, offering services to Goole, Scunthorpe, and Doncaster.
In 1629, Dutch engineer Cornelius Vermuyden transformed the landscape by draining 180,000 acres of Hatfield Chase for agricultural purposes.
