Sheffield is a city in South Yorkshire renowned for it's steel manufacture and particularly it's cutlery. Named after the river it sits on, the river Sheaf it was mentioned in Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales as a centre of excellence in knife making, going on to become the centre of influence in metalworking that it still retains today. It has two universities but for its jewellery making and silver-smithing, it is Sheffield Hallam University that has a highly respected Metalwork Degree which continues the tradition of its steel making past. We have yet to see an art deco or contemporary steel stairlift rail being produced by a creative student for their product design degree show, but there is always an opportunity there for someone to customise everyday items such as stairlifts and turn them into works of art.

The World Famous Sheffield crucible theatre is where the annual world snooker championships are held each April and May. Fans of the sport will remember the 147 breaks of Steve Davis and Stephen Hendry who have both dominated the championships, winning it many times each in the 1980's and 1990's respectively. The prize fund each year is over a million pounds.


The highest grossing British film ever, The Full Monty, which was shot in Sheffield, has been voted the "Favourite English movie of all time" overtaking such movies as Four Weddings and a Funeral, The Italian Job and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. A film about a group of unemployed Sheffield steel workers who are inspired to make some money by becoming strippers, it's a very funny comedy as anyone who has seen the Job Centre scene will know.

The local delicacy is Hendersons Relish, a Worcestershire Sauce-type sauce but a bit spicier, though the W word is a swear word as it cannot possibly be compared in the same sentence as Hendo's. Fans of it claim it can be put on anything - fish and chips, sausage and mash, you name it. Some even reckon that you should wash your clothes with it – to give them that Hendo's freshness! Now stocked in Fortnum and Masons so that exiled Sheffielders like Peter Stringfellow can buy it. I wonder if he likes cheesy beans with Henderson's on it? Yum.
