Been reading with interest threads about moving to Sheffield, however I can't find a reliable map that shows all the localities that keep getting mentions. Anyone know where there's a decent map on-line that names the suburbs. A local map for local people perhaps.

Multimap and Autoroute have been no real use, so far.

Thanks

First one is probably of more use....

This is handy if you live round and about Western Bank....

Best thing I did before moving here and looking for places to live etc - was to invest in an A-Z of Sheffield. Really handy when you get here too.

Thanks everyone, got sheffield A-Z but I was wanting something with local knowledge if you know what I mean, the formal mapping I've laid my hands on is just that, formal. The way you all speak of area's is how locals know them which sometimes doesn't correspond to area's on the map. Hence the local map for local people comment.

Anyway, I'll keep looking, and thanks for your time.

Nomme, thanks for the links, useful.
