Sheffield Legends
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sheffield Legends is a Walk of Fame located outside Sheffield Town Hall honouring famous people from or connected to Sheffield. Like the Hollywood version there are plaques with famous peoples names on them and why they are famous.
The idea was first suggested in 2005 when the people of Sheffield were asked which people should be honoured after a local resident suggested honouring the Sheffield footballer Gordon Banks.
To date, the inductees are:
- Gordon Banks
- Sean Bean
- Jarvis Cocker
- Joe Cocker
- Sebastian Coe
- Def Leppard
- David Mellor
- Michael Palin
- Helen Sharman
- Joe Simpson
