The peak district is on the doorstep of the city, which is beautiful and fantastic for walking, climbing or just a leisurely drive.

Churches

In Sheffield we have many good and varied Churches so there will be something for everyone depending what denomination, style of teaching, worship and expression of Church you are looking for.
 
We at the Eccles are committed to trying to serve the City in whatever way we can and supporting city wide Church initiatives to help further the work of God in Sheffield
