Starting on West Bar at the original site of Thomas Youdan's Surrey Theatre, you find out about Sheffield in the 1850s and the man who instigated the Youdan Football Cup (Guinness Book of Records recognised World’s first ever knockout football tournament).
It's then a stroll through the people, places and events surrounding Campo Lane, East Parade, Norfolk Row, Tudor Square, Surrey Street, Howard Street, and ending on Arundell Street . The finale in Butcher Works sets the direction for the origins of the Women's Game and the inevitable move of Professionalism being led by Sheffield..
