"Dedicated to St. Peter and St. Paul, Sheffield Cathedral stands on the site of a parish church founded in 1100. The new church, built in late-Gothic Perpendicular style, replaced it in the mid-15th century (only the choir and the tower remain, and the nave was built in the late 18th century). When Sheffield became the see of a bishop in 1914, plans were afoot to make the present nave the transept of a new and much larger church."

"Lying above Dovedale, and a short distance from Mill Dale, as Peak District pubs go, few are better positioned for a meal after a walk in the surrounding hills. Here you’ll always find a selection of real ales, a tantalising wine list and exceptional food, as recognised by The Good Food Guide, Michelin and Sawdays. With authentic beams and characterful quarry tiles underfoot, crackling log fire and a warm welcome for walkers with muddy boots and their four-pawed pals, it feels familiar – an old haunt."
