Built in 1700, Upper Chapel is the oldest nonconformist place of worship in Sheffield and one of the oldest buildings in the city centre, hidden behind a quiet forecourt off Norfolk Street.

The courtyard holds a group of bronze figures by the Sheffield sculptor George Fullard — an unexpected pocket of calm a minute from the Peace Gardens.
