Curious About... Sheffield

Sheffield, situated on the eastern edge of the Peak District, has 170 woodlands, 78 public parks, 10 public gardens and 2.5 million trees, making it one of Europe's greenest cities. Like Rome it is built on 7 hills but it made its name as the city of steel - as early as the 14th century Sheffield was known as a place for the production of knives, and was mentioned in Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales.
Many famous people have come from there, including Sean Bean, Joe Cocker, Michael Palin, Roy Hattersley, Gordon Banks and Jessica Ennis.
