Sheffield Tap

Sheffield is the western starting point of the trail, with the first pub built directly into the railway station. This makes it an easy place to begin before following the line east towards Woodhouse, Kiveton Bridge, Shireoaks, Worksop and Retford.

About Sheffield

Sheffield grew into one of Britain’s major industrial cities through its long association with cutlery, steelmaking and metalworking. The railway became an important part of that growth, and today Sheffield station remains a major gateway to the city centre. From here the line heads east through the former industrial and mining communities towards Nottinghamshire.
