Sheffield is one of those industrial cities of England where one
can still see the impact of the steel making industry that made Sheffield into
what it is these days. Although some people consider it an uncharming and
depressing city, others love this city at the heart of Britain because of the
combination of a thriving steel making industry with a modern pulse, set in
hilly surroundings with the moors and the famous Peak district only a few miles
away.
Sheffield has over half a million inhabitants and attracts
visitors from all over the world, not in the least because of its rapid and
fairly short (approximately 2,5 hours) connection with London. There are several
good
museums, most of them
dedicated to the city’s industrial past, subsequent growth and prosperity, and
the present. Besides that, Sheffield has two universities and offers excellent
sport facilities and
an active nightlife scene.
Our intention at Sheffield Connection is to
provide valuable information regarding Sheffield such as local news, events and
places of interest. We have provided a
business directory where local businesses can
register and advertise, allowing both
business & residential communities to find
them quickly and easily.
We have a property section where residents and
visitors can list or view
property for sale in the city and beyond, and
there is also a free
dating section for all you lonely hearts out
there.
Plus, we now
have our own community toolbar which is free
