EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1827 showcases the intricate "Plan of part of the markets in Sheffield". The detailed illustration, created by Woodhead and Hurst, architects from Doncaster, offers a fascinating glimpse into the bustling town during that era. The plan highlights various landmarks and streets that were integral to Sheffield's market scene. Market Place takes center stage, surrounded by Angel Street and its namesake inn. Other notable locations include King Street, post office, Change Alley, Fruit Market, Norfolk Street, Commercial Inn, Shude Hill, Fish Market, Tontine Inn - each playing a vital role in shaping the city's vibrant trading atmosphere. The image also reveals proposed additions to further enhance Sheffield's market infrastructure. Plans for a Hay market and Corn Market are marked on the map alongside Canal Basin and Canal Warehouse – symbols of industrial progress at that time. Notably captured are specific areas designated for different livestock markets such as fat cattle, lean cattle and milch cows; pig market; sheep market; all strategically placed near River Sheaf and River Dun (River Don). This arrangement reflects both practicality and convenience for traders who relied heavily on waterways for transportation. Preserved within Sheffield Libraries' archives (arc04182), this historical gem provides an invaluable window into the past while reminding us of the city's rich commercial heritage.
