Pub Heritage and Industrial relics guided walk

105 Neepsend Lane, Sheffield, South Yorkshire, S3 8AT

  • 18 Sep 2025
  • In person
  • Pre-booking required

This guided walk of less than a mile will introduce you to aspects of both the pub/beer and industrial heritage of Neepsend. Your walk leader is Dave Pickersgill, editor of several Sheffield-based Pub Heritage publications.

This short walking tour will explore Neepsend, an area in inner-city Sheffield which is currently 'on the up' (it's next door to Kelham Island, the 35th 'Coolest Place on the planet.'). We will encompass both aspects of industrial, and social, heritage and of the ‘Beer Capital’ status owned by the City of Sheffield. Highlights include the ex-Samuel Osborn Works (now Church – Temple of Fun), Naomi’s Corner, Ball Bridge, the JC Albyn complex, William Stones Cannon Brewery and the Beer Garden in the co-operatively owned Gardeners Rest.

Alongside the tour, copies of local Pub Heritage booklets will be available: £2.99 (cash only).
