About
Bishops' House is the best surviving example of a timber framed house in Sheffield. As well as being a treasured part of Sheffield's architectural heritage, the building is also a museum containing exhibitions on life in the 16th and 17th centuries with two rooms decorated in Jacobean Style. Bishops' House has been managed on behalf of Sheffield City Council since 2011 by The Friends of Bishops' House, a charity run entirely by volunteers, with exhibits still being curated by Museums Sheffield.
