<strong>KELHAM</strong> ISLAND<br />

Kelham Island’s award winning pubs, The Fat<br />

Cat and the Kelham Island Tavern, were<br />

recently mentioned in the New York Times’<br />

article “52 Places to Go in 2014”.<br />

The Kelham Island Quarter is <strong>Sheffield</strong>’s only ‘urban village’, and sits just north<br />

of <strong>Sheffield</strong> City Centre. The majority of the area is within a conservation area<br />

that protects and proudly exhibits <strong>Sheffield</strong>’s industrial heritage and<br />

architecture.<br />

Kelham has an edgy, dynamic ‘SoHo’ feel about it, characterised by<br />

warehouses converted into high spec offices and apartments, artisan<br />

businesses and workshops, galleries, cafes, bars, restaurants and award<br />

winning pubs. Its riverside setting and central square further add to its charm.<br />

For ale connoisseurs, the Kelham Island Tavern is the only pub to have won the<br />

coveted CAMRA National Pub of the Year Award for two years running.<br />

The area buzzes with energy and has fast become <strong>Sheffield</strong>’s ‘place to be’,<br />

attracting young professionals, couples and also families who enjoy its vibrant<br />

sense of community.<br />

Kelham is a unique and exciting space in which to live, work and visit, so many<br />

may not feel the need to venture further! Yet it is well connected by excellent<br />

bus and tram links to the city centre, universities and local colleges. The Peak<br />

District National Park is also just a 10 minute drive away.<br />
