Great time - tour really fascinating, giving an insight into the work and conditions, even our teenage son said it was interesting! The buildings and stories are amazing. The cafe food was delicious. A lovely afternoon out.

Interesting historical museum that details the steel working of tools (mostly scythes) via water wheel since the 17th century. Informative and free to visit, with a recommended donation of £5.

Took my nearly two year old niece here with my brother and sister, we all really enjoyed it! Really interesting way to learn about the industrial heritage of the city. There is even a little room of interactive things for children - dressing up clothes, colouring sheets and lots of play tools.

The site looked like the most interesting one in Sheffield so I was very exciting to come here and I wasn’t disappointed. I had a delightful and educating morning with wonderful weather and absolutely amazing staff / volunteers. I came here with absolutely zero knowledge about steel and the process of creating tools and I leave with what I think a reasonably realistic. View of the working conditions.

If you love wandering round historical buildings, this is definitely of interest to you. A little 'hamlet' of buildings full of amazing 'scythe ' making history. An introduction video, worksheets for children, small exhibition area and then the hamlet, waterwheel, traction engine and reservoir to see. This is a free entry museum, with a suggested donation of £5 - worth every penny. A cafe/restaurant (independent) on site. Parking (no height barrier) and toilets. Really really friendly and informative guides here. Couldn't be more enthusiastic. Also a great guy making sword blades, again, really informative and friendly. Most certainly bringing my 13 yr old grandson here, he'll love it.
