Attercliffe Sheffield Steel Yorkshire Savile Street
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Sheffield City Archives takes us back to the year 1858, offering a glimpse into the bustling industrial heart of Yorkshire. The image showcases Cyclops Works, an iconic steel manufacturing facility owned by Charles Cammell and Co. Ltd. , located on Savile Street in Sheffield. As we peer through time, our eyes are drawn southward down Cammells Bridge from the Carlisle Street end. The scene is alive with activity; workers scurry about their daily tasks, while smoke billows from towering chimneys that punctuate the skyline. This visual symphony of industry tells a story of innovation and progress during a pivotal era in British history. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its depiction of Cyclops Works but also in its representation of Attercliffe, an area renowned for its steel production heritage. Steel has long been synonymous with Sheffield's identity, and this image pays homage to the city's rich industrial past. It is important to note that this print does not focus on commercial use but rather serves as a historical record capturing an essential moment in time. It invites us to reflect upon the ingenuity and hard work that shaped Sheffield into one of England's most prominent centers for steel production.
