EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Sheffield City Archives takes us back in time to the bustling Furnival Road in the early 20th century. The image captures a lively streetscene filled with horse-drawn carriages, transporting people and goods through the city center. Gas lamps line the road, casting a warm glow on the scene as day turns into night. The buildings along Furnival Road tell their own stories of commerce and daily life. No. 1 is home to Clement Schofield Kilham, a tobacconist offering fine cigars and tobacco products to discerning customers. Next door at No. 3-5, Michael Law's Refreshment Rooms provide weary travelers with respite and nourishment amidst their journeys. Further down the street at No. 7-9 stands Wilks Bros and Co. , an ironmonger's shop where locals can find all manner of tools, hardware, and household items for their everyday needs. The photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era when these shops were thriving businesses serving the community. It also serves as a reminder of how cities evolve over time, with properties being demolished to make way for progress. As we admire this snapshot from history, we are transported back in time to witness not only the physical landscape but also sense the vibrant energy that once filled these streets - where people gathered for tea at Michael Law's Refreshment Rooms or sought out quality goods at Wilks Bros and Co. 's Ironmongers.
