EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1869 showcases the detailed plan of freehold and leasehold properties in the parish of Ecclesfield. Printed by Pawson and Brailsford, this historical document provides a fascinating glimpse into the past. Lot 1 features a remarkable freehold steel furnace located at Grenoside. This property boasts five holes along with coke sheds, other buildings, and a spacious yard. Situated near Hilltop Lane and Back Lane, it exudes an industrial charm that is truly captivating. Moving on to Lot 2, we discover freehold cottages and file cutters workshops with charming gardens adjoining Stephen Lane in Grenoside. These properties are currently occupied by John Kern, George Jackson, and William Barrows – individuals who have undoubtedly left their mark on this historic location. Lot 3 introduces us to a freehold messuage in Ecclesfield which has been transformed into a popular public house known as the Griffin Inn. Additionally, there are several freehold cottages nearby that are occupied by John Briggs, John Stringer, Henry Turton, William Higgins, and another individual whose name remains unknown. Lot 4 takes us to Storrs Bridge where we find an impressive rolling mill complete with tilt and forge facilities. This lot also includes various cottages and dwelling houses surrounded by beautiful gardens alongside the River Loxley's dam, weirs, goits (water channels), headfalls of water – all essential components for its operation. Currently leased by Messrs Swift Brothers; one can only imagine the bustling activity that once took place here. Finally comes Lot 5 - land at Cinder Hill accompanied by numerous buildings previously utilized as a nut and bolt manufactory under the occupation of John Beal. Preserved within Sheffield Libraries' archives (y12221), this extraordinary print offers an invaluable insight into Sheffield's rich history while reminding us of its enduring legacy.
