Ah yes, I was admiring the riverside figs in Sheffield recently, particularly outside Kelham Island Museum - an appropriate extension of the museum's displays!

The Don valley figs in Sheffield are quite something! I haven’t been to that museum, but sounds like a great vantage point.

Figs are surprisingly hardy. I found some on the shores of Lake Ontario in upstate New York, and they were bearing fruit.

Wow! You must have much harsher winters up there than we do on our Atlantic warmed island. So it’s astonishing they get through the freezing temperatures!
