  • SHEFFIELD | Walking Tour of Sheffield Canal Basin and Victoria Quays, Sheffield City Centre
    A walk down to the Sheffield canal and a look around Castlegate in Sheffield City Centre!
    Victoria Quays is a large canal basin in Sheffield, England. It was constructed 1816-1819 as the terminus of the Sheffield Canal and includes the former coal yards of the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway.
    Victoria Quays (formerly Sheffield Canal Basin) is a large canal basin in Sheffield, England. It was constructed 1816-1819 as the terminus of the Sheffield Canal (now part of the Sheffield and South Yorkshire Navigation) and includes the former coal yards of the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway.
    The basin ceased operation as a cargo port in 1970 and the site and buildings were largely neglected. A restoration and redevelopment of 1992-1994 reopened the site providing new office and business space and leisure facilities as well as berths for leisure canal boats. There are a number of Grade II listed buildings on the site. These include the original Terminal Warehouse of 1819, the Straddle Warehouse (1895-1898),[a grain warehouse (c. 1860),and a curved terrace of coal merchant's offices

    Awesome video! I really like how you show us Sheffield in a way that those of us who aren't there can really explore through your eyes (and feet!). Thanks!

    Dear Sheffield Videos, I could write a lot of words describing the canal system, but let us settle for telling you it was a wonderful job.

    I never knew this was here when I lived in Sheffield 50 years ago - maybe it wasn't open to the public in those days. What a great image of a great city. (By the way I'm listening (at 5am, eastern Australian time) to Any Questions from Sheffield on the BBC.)

    Stunning waterside area. The tunnel access is just breathtaking and the Victorian architecture bodbthw basin just awesome. I would ban all motor vehicles though. And would put in kiosks offering refreshments, food, etc. Have they started with the hugely important Castlegate project yet? Thanks a lot
