This book presents an original perspective on an urban castle, resurrecting from museum archives a building that, for over 350 years, has resided largely on the horizons of the imagination, but which once made Sheffield a nexus of power in medieval England.
Sheffield Castle presents the first comprehensive analysis of the archaeological evidence for the castle, and the medieval landscape within which it sat. It brings to publication for the first time all the major excavations carried out on the site, and at the neighbouring deer park, in the 20th and 21st centuries, and includes the first modern analysis of the artefacts excavated. Importantly, the detail of the archive has allowed the authors to tell the stories of those who rediscovered the castle, the circumstances in which they worked, their archaeological methods, and the scholarly and political influences that shaped their narratives. It situates their endeavours within contemporary discussions about the place of the past in the present – debates which continue in the ongoing attempts to situate the castle site at the heart of a heritage-led urban regeneration initiative.
