About Sheffield

Sheffield

The wonderful city of Sheffield doesn’t just lie on the edge of the Peak District – over a third of the city is actually within the boundary of the National Park. The city has a number of other green accolades too. It is England’s greenest city, with 61% of the entire area being green space. It boasts more than 250 parks, woodlands and gardens, containing an estimated 4.5 million trees, more trees per person than any other city in Europe. There are more than 1,600 acres of nature reserves within the city, and 170 woodland areas, 80 of which are classed as ancient woodlands.
