Where are Sheffields borders ?

[eighty4 10]

Ive been looking for a map on the net that will display all borders of sheffield. All the maps ive seen so far show rotheram and all the outlying towns, what id like is one that displays JUST sheffield in its true size. Any help would be great, thanks

Sheffield covers quite a big area so you might struggle to find a map on the net that shows enough detail to be of any use. Have a look at an O.S. map in a decent book shop.

...at the edges

There is a border about 3 mile before holmesfield, I see the sign when i'm on bike you are now in derbyshire, so I asume thats a Sheffield border as Sheffield ends there and derbyshire begins.

Not necessarily as parts of Sheffield are in Derbyshire

Not quite Sheffield is within South Yorkshire and its sourthern limits are also SY's southern limits. Parts of Totley are on the other not in Sheffield but in North East Derbyshire, but under the NED authority.

Your best bet would be to go to streetmap.co.uk and click it to the OS Landranger scale and just follow it round.

Here is a sketch that gives you a quick idea:

The Ordnance Survey maps do show the boundary but it is very hard to follow as it is a faint, grey, dotted line!

 

If you have the patience, you can stitch together the detailed Ward Boundary maps from The Boundary Committe, here:

Detailed ward maps are also available on the Council's website, here:

Just take note of how rough the road surfaces are - then you are in Sheffield
