Stone Garden

The Stone Garden has a display of interesting stonework from the entrances of Sheffield companies. From the Sheffield coat of arms to the’ hanging sheep’, every stone has a story to tell about the city’s trades and industrial past. The Stone Garden can be viewed from inside the Crucible Shop and at some of SIMT's larger events including 1940s Wartime Weekend, Down by the Riverside and the Victorian Christmas Market.
