The Antiques Roadshow is coming from Sheffield City Hall.......... some very nice bits and bobs.............

Some letters signed by Mary Queen of Scots which are in the Sheffield Archives - worth £5K - apparently she was kept in the castle or the accompanying manor house for 14 years................... you learn something every day! :D

No mention of our RH though - the modern treasure............. :? :wink:

the best bits in the antiques road show is when you get people who think they've bought something really valuable in and they learn......it's worth about a tenner.

I believe that Monkey Swallows The Universe's album from last year 'The Casket Letters' was related to those. The track Elizabeth & Mary was certainly about Mary's 'stay' in Sheffield

Loved the football challenge cup from 1867 - that should be in a museum and not locked away in the assay office. That and the rule book from the 1850s - these are internationally significent items
