EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate "Plan of Sandbed Wheel" held by the Earl of Surrey in 1783. The assignees of Thomas Broadbent, hailing from Neepsend, Sheffield, meticulously documented this impressive structure. Surveyor William Fairbank II left no detail unnoticed as he accurately depicted the wheels, dam, and goit (water channel) with utmost precision. The scale of this plan is awe-inspiring - 2 chains to 1 inch or a staggering 40 inches to 1 mile! This level of accuracy allows viewers to grasp the grandeur and complexity of this engineering marvel. Each element is clearly labeled and named for easy identification. A numerical list accompanies the plan, providing detailed descriptions and acreages for each feature. What sets this print apart is its inclusion of vital information such as the height of fall. This crucial data sheds light on how water power was harnessed effectively at Sandbed Wheel during that era. Preserved within Sheffield Libraries' archives under reference arc02739, this historical gem offers a glimpse into Yorkshire's rich industrial heritage. It highlights not only technological advancements but also pays homage to those who built these remarkable structures along River Don
