Sheffield is a modern industrial city, founded on the cutlery and iron and steel trades during the industrial revolution. The Abbeydale Industrial Hamlet was an industrial complex where steel was turned into tools. Kelham Island Museum is worth a visit as an industrial museum where steam and gas engines, traditional workshop craftsmanship, and cutlery manufacturing processes may be viewed. The Traditional Heritage Museum has many displays and artefacts which illustrate life in Sheffield from 1850 to 1950. Open to parties of visitors by prior arrangement & open to the public on specified dates (see What's On - Other Special Events for Open Days). The Magna Science and Adventure Centre are found on the road to Rotherham from J34 of the M1.
