[Further Information]

Sheffield is a city and metropolitan borough of South Yorkshire, England. Historically a part of the West Riding of Yorkshire, the city has grown from its largely industrial roots to encompass a wider economic base. Now Sheffield is England's fourth-largest city, which is about two hours from London by train and about one and a half hour from Manchester airport. More information can be found in the website: http://www.sheffield.gov.uk/
Besides the attractions you could find in Sheffield City, Chatsworth, which is one of the treasure houses of England, is strongly recommended. Right on Sheffield's doorstep nestling in the heart of the Peak District National Park it should absolutely not be missed. Enjoy the farmyard and the spectacular woodland adventure playground or the 105 acre garden with its cascades, fountains and maze.
Moreover, Sheffield has convenient links with other traditional and beautiful cities in England,
including Manchester, York, Liverpool, Birmingham, etc.
