Bishops' House, Tudor museum in Norton Lees, Sheffield, England

The half-timbered Bishops' House stands at the southern end of Meersbrook Park as one of three remaining timber-framed buildings in Sheffield.

Built around 1500, the house received its name from brothers John and Geoffrey Blythe, who served as bishops but never resided in the building.

The museum rooms display authentic period furniture and exhibits that demonstrate daily life in Sheffield during the 16th and 17th centuries.

The museum opens every Saturday and Sunday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with free admission and limited wheelchair access to the ground floor.

The house appeared on the cover of the album 'The Casket Letters' by the Sheffield band Monkey Swallows the Universe.
