FitzwilliamYou may be looking for Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge. Fitzwilliam is a large village on the edge of West Yorkshire. It is located in the Wakefield district, to the west of Hemsworth. Like most of this district, it was an old coal-mining area, although Fitzwilliam has yet to fully recover from the effect of pits closures. There are several roads in the village where all the houses are abandoned and run-down. House prices are lower in this village than practically anywhere else in the country. Unemployment is high, although not as high as it once was. Heroin abuse remains a problem. In response to this situation, Fitzwilliam is included in a special regeneration area and has received special funding to aid its recovery. It has a train station on the Wakefield line, providing it with connections to Wakefield, Doncaster and Sheffield.
