That’s great and should be mentioned, as should the bad things and a balance made of both.

Refreshingly positive article. However the author has stretched the facts to support the claim made in the title. She states .....

 

" .....  the greenest city centre in Great Britain, with a whopping 61% of its catchment area given over to parks, woodlands and gardens, including one-third of the Peak District National Park, with its exposed moors and scrubby heathland. "

 

Surely the Peak District parts don't count as the "city centre".

“Catchment area” is not city centre

Good to know that we’re South Yorkshire’s largest city.

Why did you leave out the first part of the sentence?
