Local Interest
The walled garden, Meersbrok Park
Within two miles of Sheffield city centre. One of the largest and liveliest city centres in the country. A array of galleries, museums, shops, bars, clubs and two leading theatres (the famous Crucible being one) Sheffield is particularly known for its exceptional number of parks making it one of the greenest cities in Europe. Within walking distance of the workshop are Meersbrook and Graves Park.
Half and hour drive and you are into the Peak district national park with arguably the counties finest landscape, walks and sights. Chatsworth house and grounds, the famous towns of Bakewell, Hathersage (with Little Johns grave), Castleton beneath the shivering mountain of Mam Tor, Eyam the plague village, Edal the start of the Pennine Way and many more too numerous to mention.
