Frecheville (/ˈfrɛʃvɪl/ FRESH-vil) is a suburb five miles (8.0 km) south-east of Sheffield city centre. The estate was built in the 1930s when the area was in Derbyshire. However, due to expansion, Frecheville and a number of surrounding villages became part of the city of Sheffield in 1967 and thus the West Riding of Yorkshire.
