About Neepsend
Where to stay in Neepsend
Each area has its own feel; here's who each one suits.
Neepsend runs along one stretch of water, and where a bed sits on it decides the walk. The Wicker end is the city end. A room near Lady's Bridge puts Sheffield city centre about a mile off and the Sheffield Royal Infirmary within the same short reach, while the Hillfoot Bridge end trades that for quieter ground toward Parkwood Springs.
Both ends share the River Don.
