Two eateries in Sheffield and one in NE Derbyshire Kelham Island Industrial Museum and The Winter Garden Millennium Galleries, Sheffield Scene and Don Alexander The Cathedral, Victoria Quays, Meadowhall & "Town Shopping" Jazz Music venues. The rest are outside the city: Chatsworth, Bakewell, The Peak District and Country Pubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s criminal how many people rate the Winter Gardens over the Botanical gardens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.B.Yaffle Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 The article did actually mention the Botanical Gardens. They could have included the Ski village instead of some of the attractions which aren't even in Sheffield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgksheff Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 It is so funny how common usage means people want to refer to the Winter Gardens but the council (or someone) has chosen to name them in the singular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lazyfish Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 "Thriving bar scene"? Pah. One of the reasons Sheffield is great is that it still has pubs instead of bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
