Thorpe Marsh Nature Reserve is a 77-hectare (190-acre) nature reserve located south-west of Thorpe in Balne, north of Doncaster in South Yorkshire, England. The reserve is managed and maintained by a team of volunteers under the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust[1] as well as Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council.[2]
The reserve shares its name with the coal-fired power station which occupied the adjacent land prior to its closure in 1994[3] and the demolition of its remaining cooling towers in 2012.[4][5] The site is on an area of lowland susceptible to flooding (floodplain)[6][7] by the River Don, thus creating an area of marshland on which the reserve sits (hence the appended "marsh").
