Sheffield

About this book

"This guide to Sheffield's architecture describes not only the city's renowned industrial heritage and its handsome Victorian buildings but also lesser-known medieval survivals and houses of the Georgian town. The city's majestic surroundings provide a memorable setting for its mansions, villas and innovative public housing, while the prize-winning Peace Gardens, Millennium Galleries and Winter Garden herald the city's twenty-first century renaissance. A lively introduction and gazetteer, colour photographs, maps and plans make this book an essential companion."--Jacket.
