DN7 6 and DN7 4 · Core round area
Window cleaning in Hatfield, done properly.
Hatfield is not one place, it is four, and they need completely different jobs. The old village along High Street and Manor Road, Hatfield Woodhouse, the 1920s colliery streets of Dunscroft, and the modern estates at Dunsville. Same postcode area, nothing else in common.
About seven miles east of Doncaster town centre.
What the housing is actually like in Hatfield
This matters more than it sounds. The kind of property decides the access, the reach and the price, so here is what the census actually says rather than a guess.
Two figures because the parish splits in two. Dunscroft and Dunsville are 0.5% pre-1919 and 29% built between 1919 and 1939 — around Norwood Road it is 67% interwar. Hatfield village and Woodhouse are 43% detached with 22% built since 2009.
A bit about Hatfield
Two conservation areas, both in the old village. Hatfield High Street was designated on 21 December 1970 and the council calls it a classic medieval street village, with long thin plots once linked by back lanes. Materials are handmade brick under clay pantiles, and it specifically records Yorkshire horizontal sliding sash windows on the older properties. Hatfield Manor Road followed on 19 November 1990: detached houses from the 18th century onwards on larger plots, red pantiles on the agricultural buildings and Welsh slate on the bigger houses.
Both appraisals single out the same thing: high brick walls, remnants of the farm properties, defining the boundaries. There are 23 listed entries around the village including two at Grade I, Hatfield Manor House and the Church of St Lawrence.
Then there is the pit. Hatfield Main was sunk from 1911 over at Stainforth and was in production by the early 1920s, and it was the last deep coal mine in South Yorkshire, closing on 29 June 2015. Its 1922 headstocks were listed Grade II in 2015. Dunscroft went up in that same decade, which is why almost nothing there predates 1919.
Around here: High Street, Manor Road, Station Road, Ash Hill, Slay Pit Lane, Broadway, Norwood Road, Beechfield Road, Hop Hills Lane, St Lawrence’s Church, Hatfield Manor House, the Ingram Arms, and Hatfield and Stainforth station.
What that means for cleaning your windows
The things that actually change the job in Hatfield, rather than a list that would fit anywhere.
Yorkshire sashes in the old village
The council appraisal names them specifically: horizontal sliding sashes, small panes, tight reveals, and glass that has not moved in a century. Pure water and a soft brush from the ground, nothing abrasive and nothing leaning on the frame.
Almost no tree cover
Forestry Commission figures put the Hatfield ward at 9.6% canopy, one of the lowest in Doncaster. Very little overhang, so less sap and leaf litter than the villages west of town, but a lot more open sky and direct weathering.
Flat, low and exposed
Four to eight metres above sea level on the Humberhead Levels, with Hatfield Moors immediately south east. What lands on the glass comes off the fields and off the moors on the wind rather than dropping out of trees.
Three different jobs, three different prices
A 1920s Dunscroft semi, a listed property on Manor Road and a post-2009 house at Dunsville are not the same work and are not quoted the same. Send the street name and you get the right price rather than an average.

Questions we get asked in Hatfield
Do you cover Dunscroft and Dunsville as well as the village?
Yes, all of it, along with Hatfield Woodhouse. It is core round territory on the six-weekly cycle.
Our windows are the old sliding sash type. Is that a problem?
No, and pure water is the right approach for them. No detergent, no grit, a soft brush from the ground, and nothing resting on the frame. Frames and sills are included as standard.
We are on one of the newer estates. Do you do those?
Yes. If it is a recent build the first clean often needs more than a routine visit because of plaster and mortar splash, so we price that honestly rather than pretending it is standard.
