EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Sheffield City Archives takes us back to the year 1895, offering a glimpse into the remarkable Cyclops Iron and Steel Works. Originally established in 1845 for Johnson Cammell and Co. , this industrial marvel was later acquired by Charles Cammell and Co. Ltd. The image showcases the impressive cementation furnaces that dominated the landscape of Savile Street in Attercliffe, Sheffield. The sheer scale of these towering structures is awe-inspiring, reflecting the might and power of Yorkshire's steel industry during its heyday. The Cyclops Works stood as a testament to human ingenuity and innovation, symbolizing an era when Sheffield reigned supreme as one of Britain's foremost centers for steel production. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness an industrial landscape teeming with activity. Workers clad in heavy gear can be seen bustling around, their tireless efforts fueling the fires that would transform raw materials into robust steel products. The photograph encapsulates both the physicality and intensity required within this demanding profession. As we delve into history through this evocative image, it is important to appreciate not only the technological advancements achieved but also recognize how these industries shaped communities and livelihoods throughout Yorkshire.
