Sheaf Valley Park - An outdoor amphitheatre for Sheffield


It seems that work has started on Sheaf valley park on the hill behind the station. Possible plans for the park include the design above, which shows an amphitheatre carved out of the hillside. The project will be completed in phases as and when the money becomes available. The good news is that it seems the amphitheatre is included in the first phase:

Earth will be moved to form a level space for events, with a series of seating terraces above where people can enjoy views of Sheffield city centre and beyond. It could look spectacular on a summer evening with the sun setting over the hills opposite and provide a perfect backdrop for live theatre or musical performances…just as long as the trains aren’t too noisy.
