Jon Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Sheffield is surrounded by seven hills....Which hills are we talking about. I have always wanted to know the answer to this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ant Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Ah, well I can't answer this one fully, but I can certainly give some guidance. I'm led to believe that there's a Roderick Hill that lives on the north side - somewhere near Penistone. And in the affluent south-west area of Totley there's a certain Mrs Nelly Hill and her daughters Podmorgan and Henrietta. So that's two. Can anyone else suggest where the other five Hills are located? Always glad to help a friend in need, mate. Ant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

si@guisborough Posted July 5, 2003 Share Posted July 5, 2003 Wincobank is a great place for walking, with great views of Sheffield and the odd burning car. Hadn`t realised it`s one of the seven hills. Used to live nearby, at Grimesthorpe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Maiden Posted July 5, 2003 Share Posted July 5, 2003 Wincobank is also the site for the Iron Age settlement - probably built by the Brigantes as defense against the Romans. Moon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moon Now if you come up Barnsley Rd there are signs saying Roman Ridge pointing towards the hill:? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
