There's a castle underneath Sheffield, buried for four hundred years. So why does no-one know about it?

Working from previously unexplored archives and making use of exciting new technologies, the Department of Archaeology and the School of Architecture at the University of Sheffield are set to change all that. Together with key players from across the city, they are digging into Sheffield’s hidden history to bring this incredible hidden fortress back to life.
