Study in Sheffield

The City of Sheffield

Sheffield was put on the international map by the film “The Full Monty” which followed the lives of Sheffield steel workers who resorted to male stripping to find employment. The image of the city was dark. However, whilst industrial in nature did you know that Sheffield is one of the greenest cities in England with 150 woodlands and 50 public parks? Statistically it is also said to one of the safer major cities in the UK. The city is highly accessible with excellent rail links to all major cities and set in South Yorkshire it is close to Leeds, Manchester Nottingham and the Peak District.

The Peak District National Park

The Peak District National Park lies at the southern end of the Pennine Hills just 5 miles from the city centre. One third of Sheffield lies within its boundaries and visitors to the west of the city will see how easily Sheffield nestles into the gently rolling moors and rugged peaks.

The area is unique in its varied landscape, riches of wildlife, and wealth of cultural heritage. There is so much to explore – remote wind blown hilltops, tranquil dales, hard rock edges, traditional flower meadows, show caves and river valleys. It’s easy to see why it is a firm favourite with walkers, climbers and cyclists.
