  • Did you know that one of the people rumoured to have executed King Charles I was from Darnall?
  • Did you know that, at the time of the 2011 census, there were almost as many Muslims (8,595) as Christians (9,357) in Darnall?
  • Did you know that the arches that lead to the main entrance of High Hazels House in Darnall were built of the same stone as the Houses of Parliament?

Darnall has a lot to offer, but it's a part of the city that many of us know little about.
