The City of Sheffield

The City of Sheffield has a long association with design and the study of design. Sheffield Hallam University is one of the oldest design academies in the world, starting out as Sheffield School of Design in 1843, set up to serve the city's metalworking industries. Sheffield was once a watchword for heavy industrial production, with a dark utilitarian image to match, but today, partly through the influence of its designers and artists, it is a centre for new cultural industries. Imaginative urban design has created a new and delightful city centre, surrounding our university with enjoyable spaces as well as public artworks, galleries and cafes.

Here's a map of Sheffield City Centre in PDF format, it has a lot of detail and includes the location of most hotels we are using.

The city is right on the edge of the Peak District National Park famous for climbing and hill-walking, traditional English countryside and the magnificent homes of the aristocratic landowners, some of whom still have a part in sustaining the life and landscape of the park.
Sheffield is also one of the friendliest cities, often described by people who live here as the biggest village in the world.

Here is a link to the Sheffield tourist information web pages. Not very well designed perhaps but full of enthusiasm for our city.
