The story of Sheffield - it's industry, people and life. Attractions include the mighty River Don Steam engine, probably the largest working steam engine in Europe. See the working "Little Mester" craftsmen exhibiting traditional 'Made in Sheffield' skills, visit the Victorians in Sheffield to find out what life was like in this period of dramtic change including the Sheffield Flood, and for younger children the "Melting Shop" combines play and learning in a specially designed environment.
