Bramall Lane has staged sport since 1855 and football since 1862, which makes it the oldest ground in the world still used for professional matches. It was a Test cricket venue too, and hosted an FA Cup final and England internationals.

Sheffield United play here in front of around 32,000. Stadium tours run on non-match days and take in the tunnel, dressing rooms and the pitchside.
