Bishops House
Bishops House is in Meersbrook Park in Sheffield, UK
Bishops' House is the best surviving example of a timber framed house in Sheffield, England. It is open to the public each Saturday and Sunday from 10am until 4pm. Located at the top of Meersbrook Park, it was once a farm surrounded by fields. The House was built in the sixteenth century, around the time two members of the Blythe family became Bishops, hence the name, but their historical connection with the House is unconfirmed. In 1886 ownership passed to the Sheffield City Council and various recreation department employees lived in the house until 1974. It is a Grade II* listed building and has been open as a museum since 1976.
Bishops House - SCA bid
The Friends Of Bishops House are making a bid for Sheffield Community Assembly funding to run a Community Heritage Weekend, doing geophysics, glass analysis and other activities to help find out more about the history of this amazing late 15th century building in Sheffield.

Sheffield received its municipal charter in 1843, becoming the City of Sheffield in 1893.

UK: School of Sanctuary’ opens its doors to refugee children
In September 2017, Widden Primary School in Gloucester was awarded the status of School of Sanctuary.
The award was handed out by the “City of Sanctuary” grassroots movement, which began in 2005 in Sheffield, England. Fostering relationships between local people and those seeking refuge in Britain, the movement is a loose grouping of organisations committed to including refugees in their activities, and which adhere to its inclusiveness aims. The idea is to recognise cities, schools and groups that offer a warm welcome to people in need of safety.
There are about 50 schools with a “School of Sanctuary” status, according to the City of Sanctuary movement, which hails Widden as a “beacon of multicultural diversity”. There are up to 40 languages spoken at the school, where seven refugee families, including 12 children, are supported through tailored language support classes, inclusive curricula and activities.
