Your mystery begins…Sheffield War Memorial (opposite City Hall)

Clues 1 - 11: Is the Norfolk Knife from Norfolk?

In the first half of your adventure, you'll discover Sheffield Cathedral, Fitzalan Square and Norfolk Street where the famous ‘Norfolk Knife’ was first created. The knife was incredibly intricate featuring 74 seperate blades and tools (resembling a modern Swiss Army Knife). Multi-tools like these even date as far back as the Romans!

Take a Break!

Spend a penny (literally!) in the unique bar, Public, found in a former Victorian men's toilet! The bar, now offering a luxurious array of drinks, can be found not far from Sheffield Town Hall (around the middle of your adventure!). Booking is reccomended. 

Clues 12-16: The Show Must Go On!

In the second part of your adventure, you'll discover the Winter Gardens and Surrey Street. Not far from here stands the Lyceum Theatre which over the years has suffered two major fires. Throughout history, theatres have been a hotbed for disaster and were at the mercy of rudimentary ‘special effects’. At Shakespeare's Globe for example, backstage staff would fire real cannons and through explosive powder into candles to mimic the sound of thunder!
