A superb book that gives a real insight into the changing Sheffield city landscape. Detailed information about the buildings and how they have appeared and how some of them have changed over the years. Lots of photographs, plans, engravings and maps. Highly recommended for getting to know more about the city of Sheffield.
Includes instructions for 6 walks around the city with plenty of notes about the buildings and their history.
Walk 1: The Town Hall Area
Walk 2: The Cathedral Area
Walk 3: The Devonshire Area
Walk 4: The Cultural Industries Area
Walk 5: The Castle and Wicker
Walk 6: Scotland Street to Neepsend
The only downside is that it was published in 2004 and with such a lot of change in the last 5 years, especially in the St Paul's Square area, the book is now ripe for an update.
