Jon   10 #1 Posted July 3, 2003 Sheffield is surrounded by seven hills....Which hills are we talking about. I have always wanted to know the answer to this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Guest Ant   #2 Posted July 3, 2003 Ah, well I can't answer this one fully, but I can certainly give some guidance.  I'm led to believe that there's a Roderick Hill that lives on the north side - somewhere near Penistone. And in the affluent south-west area of Totley there's a certain Mrs Nelly Hill and her daughters Podmorgan and Henrietta.  So that's two. Can anyone else suggest where the other five Hills are located?   Always glad to help a friend in need, mate.  Ant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

si@guisborough   10 #6 Posted July 5, 2003 Wincobank is a great place for walking, with great views of Sheffield and the odd burning car. Hadn`t realised it`s one of the seven hills. Used to live nearby, at Grimesthorpe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Moon Maiden   10 #7 Posted July 5, 2003 Wincobank is also the site for the Iron Age settlement - probably built by the Brigantes as defense against the Romans.  Moon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
