Attercliffe Chapel, also known as the Hill Top Chapel, is a Gothicchapel in Attercliffe, now a suburb of Sheffield, England. The chapel was constructed in 1629, when Attercliffe was a township separate from Sheffield, although in the same parish.
The chapel, surrounded by its cemetery, and lying on the south bank of the River Don, was largely rebuilt in 1909, but retains its period atmosphere.
The neighbourhood: Attercliffe was once the centre of Sheffield's steel-making industry (the wreckage of that industry forms the backdrop for the film 'The Full Monty').
The chapel is directly opposite the Don Valley Stadium and an enormous police station.
Sitting alone after the service inside this chapel and thinking of the faith that has enabled this place to withstand the economic and social upheaval all around it.
