Sheffield Cathedral is located right in the heart of the city, it has such prominence that it is…read moreprobably one of the only places I've found and visited in the city centre to have over ten reviews. It is served by Cathedral Supertram stop, which is one of three stations on the whole network to serve all the tram lines, it is within walking distance of The Moor, Orchard Square, Fargate etc. This makes it a rather cool place to mark my 2300th Yelp review. The site has been home to many Catholic symbols, churches and places of worship since the 12th century to as far as 1966, so the process of this historic, the cathedral has developed over so many years, it does, however, seem slightly more modern than other cathedrals, and not in a good way, it lacks the old, beautiful infrastructure compared to other Cathedrals, which makes it less impressive compared to Westminster and York's alternatives for examples, but still for sure doesn't make it unimpressive. It is a Grade I listed building, one of five in the city of Sheffield which includes the town hall. More information to make this a historic site could be used after all this has been home to worship for over 1000 years which is an impressive feet not reached by most. Although it isn't up there with the most beautiful and impressive Cathedrals of the UK, it still is a nice, historic building right in the centre of Sheffield, making it one of the nicer views on the entire Supertram network as well. 3* - Pretty much average but an asset for a small city like South Yorkshire's Sheffield.
One of the lesser English cathedrals…read more On my journeys in Britain I have been to many impressive cathedrals: Liverpool (old and new), Norwich, Colchester, Worcester, York, Leeds (Minster), Peterborough (very different), Gloucester - you name them. My possible favorite is the mighty, beautiful Ely Cathedral. Sheffield Cathedral, frankly, does not compare - architecturally (its tacked-on modern part doesn't help much), nor in terms of the art and church objects inside. It is rather plain. Not ugly, but plain. Small-ish, too. And comparatively "naked". If you're in the city for a day's visit you might want to pop in anyway. But it wouldn't be worth the travel just for the sake of this building. Unless of course you're there for some religious event or concert.

It puzzles me that people visit churches when on holiday in order to soak up the local culture of a…read moreplace, but do not check out the local examples in their home city. Whatever your degree of religious interest, the beauty hiding within Leeds Parish Church is something that needs to be experienced. The main section of the church is breathtakingly aesthetic. When I recently visited it, the sun was dramatically pouring through the beautiful stained glass windows, casting playfully colourful patterns on the stone floor. The intricately carved wooden seating and organ were perfectly framed in the gravitas of the room. Leading off from the main room, is The Lady Chapel. It is much smaller, creating a more intimate space. An elaborate altar sits at the head of the room, a lovely statue to focus on. The softness of the windows contrasts with the jagged edges of the furniture to spectacular effect. The website is updated regularly, providing information on times of services, performances by the choir and other music events. The ethereal beauty of the place evokes such peacefulness, you can't help but feel calm and collected. A wonderful place to contemplate, life, love, the universe, or just what to have for lunch.
As far as churches go, this is the best one I have seen in Leeds, albeit usually as I am leaving…read moreLeeds trying to find the M1. Sadly a massive main road reaches nearly its edge and the way the city centre has developed, there isn't much else around it. If I was to redesign Leeds the city would shift sideways a bit so that this beautiful building was more a central feature. It beats the cathedral in terms of beauty and magnificence inside and out. I love the curling gothic details on each spire and the stain glass windows. It is definitely worth walking down this way just for the sake of checking it out sometime.

A few years on and its clear that this church is fully functioning and has an active congregation. There are flowers blooming in the garden area and a sign welcoming people in. This is great as it is such a beautiful building really adding to the traditional cityscape of Leeds with is blackened stone bricks from more industrial times. It lies on the road towards Headingley, a little way out of the city centre. The Ashwood group functions in the church, running music groups and a youth club. I have cycled past a few times on a Friday or Saturday night around midnight to see a few people gathered round a bbq giving out burgers to drunk students passing by. I have seen a similar crew in Headingley and I think they call themselves Jesus's Army, or something similar. Whilst I am not a Christian, I do admire the enthusiasm of the people involved in this church and how they engage with the community - I couldn't refuse a free burger on a Saturday night could I?!
