Hellaby is a small civil parish on the southern edge of the Metropolitan Borough of Rotherham in South Yorkshire, England. It retains a semi-rural character with farmland, hedgerows and pockets of housing rather than a dense town centre; the landscape is punctuated by the grounds of the old manor and a small country-park lake, making it a quieter contrast to the nearby urban areas.
Locally the most notable landmark is Hellaby Hall, a historic country house whose parkland provides popular walks and occasional events; the hall itself is used for hospitality and functions. Historically agricultural, the parish now has a mix of commuters and long-established residents who travel to nearby centres such as Doncaster and Sheffield for work, while keeping a small, community-focused feel and an emphasis on local green space and heritage.
