Devonshire Green is the city centre’s green lung, the sloping lawn between Division Street and Fitzwilliam Street where Sheffield gathers on sunny days. Every July it becomes the free, family-friendly main stage of the Fringe at Tramlines, with live music from afternoon until dark.

Devonshire Green is a small public open space at 53.3789°N 1.4783°W within Sheffield city centre in South Yorkshire, England. It covers an area of approximately 9000 square metres and is designated as a district park by Sheffield City Council.

What the travel guide says

The only significant green space in the City Centre is the heart of the vibrant Devonshire Quarter. Both are named after the Dukes of Devonshire, whose seat is at Chatsworth in the Peak District. It has an area of landscaped grass (thronged with young people in good weather) and semi-mature trees, a skatepark, and an outdoor arena used for festivals and events including Tramlines. Architecture buffs will appreciate the Gaudíesque curved walls and serpentine benches.

What the records hold on this place

Everything below is read from stored open data, not from the venue. Where a thing is not recorded it says so, rather than guessing.

Food hygiene

No Food Standards Agency rating is recorded for this address. That usually means it is not a food business, not that it failed.

Accessibility

Accessibility is not recorded for this venue. Nothing here is guessed from the building or the business type, so the honest answer is that nobody has recorded it. Ring ahead, and if you find out, it can be added to OpenStreetMap.
