Moorends is a rural village to the north-east of Doncaster right on the border with East Yorkshire and Lincolnshire. Set in pretty undulating countryside it is a good base for hikes and runs.

The Stainforth and Keadby Canal links the river Don near Bramwith to the River Trent at Keadby. It was authorised by an Act of Parliament in 1793 and eventually opened in 1802. There are only three locks on the canal, one at each end and this one at Thorne.

St Nicholas Church is a beautiful historic church and is a Grade I Listed building dating back to the 12th Century. The Nave of the church was built in the 12th Century, the South Aisle in the 14th Century and the South Porch in the 15th Century. A beautiful example of a post Norman medieval church.

The fine church is Grade I listed and dates mainly from the 12th and 13th centuries with earlier and later additions. It is cruciform in shape and has two side aisles. There are traces of Norman windows and pillars. It is likely that the original church at Thorne was Saxon built or at least preconquest. The lighting has recently been reordered which shows off the interior to good effect.  There are many things to see in this beautiful church including a medieval clerestory and font and a 17th century Royal Coat of Arms. See also the spectacular stained glass (including a window by Sir Henry Holiday) and the splendid rood screen (1948). The chancel has traces of Norman windows. The south porch is an ornate piece of 15th century work and a rare stone coffin can be seen nearby. It was discovered in the 18th century and is thought to date to preconquest times.
