Hexthorpe Manor is referred to by Magilton (1977, 49) as the "only surviving building of any antiquity" although its date is uncertain. A manor house is documented in the 16th century but the location is also uncertain. The site of the medieval village, if not simply Doncaster, was presumably associated with the manor house. A desk based assessment has been commissioned for this area but has not yet (Nov 2006) been received. Legibility of the former landscape is uncertain.
