Sheffield, Metropolitan borough in South Yorkshire, England

Sheffield sits where four streams converge at the foot of the Pennine highlands, forming the River Don in north-central England.

The settlement evolved from Escafeld, an Anglo-Saxon village mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, into a Norman settlement with a castle.

The city houses two major universities, multiple museums, the Graves art gallery, and the National Centre for Popular Music within its administrative boundaries.

Sheffield extends across 142 square miles, with 61 percent of its territory consisting of green spaces and parks accessible to residents.

The invention of stainless steel in 1912 within Sheffield established the city as a global center for metallurgical innovations and steel manufacturing.

Location: South Yorkshire

Inception: April 1, 1974
