The 5th edition of Sheffield’s Real Heritage Pubs: “Pub Interiors of Historic Interest”, the CAMRA book about Heritage Pubs in Sheffield, is now available as a free PDF download. (Please click on this link to view and download).

Back in 2017, this ground-breaking document was the first attempt to create a snapshot of the Sheffield Pub Heritage picture. For printed copies or retail enquiries, please contact pubheritage@sheffield.camra.org.uk or visit the main CAMRA website for printed copies of the earlier 3rd edition.

Said Paul Ainsworth, Chair of CAMRA Pub Heritage “For almost forty years, CAMRA has developed its national inventory (NI) of historic pub interiors. These highlight the crème de la crème which have either escaped much alteration or contain features of exceptional interest. We are aware that below the NI are a host of interiors which still offer a great deal worth seeing. The pioneering work carried out in Sheffield to locate and record these pubs has been an inspiring exercise. This publication portrays the rich tapestry of Sheffield’s pubs: from the nationally important to those where what remains, even if fragmented, should be cherished. A bonus, of course, is that many of these pubs sell great real ale”.

In addition, Sheffield & District CAMRA have also produced a detailed Pub Heritage walking 32 page This is also available as a free PDF download. (Please click on this link to view and download).
