EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in Sheffield's history - the Royal Visit of the Prince and Princess of Wales in 1875. The image showcases a beautifully adorned decorative arch at Pitsmoor Toll Bar, located on Barnsley Road/Burngreave Road. The intricate design of the arch reflects the grandeur and prestige associated with royal visits during that era. It serves as a testament to the excitement and anticipation felt by the local community as they welcomed their esteemed guests. The presence of this archway symbolizes unity, pride, and reverence for royalty. Notably, this photograph is an original from Sheffield Libraries' archives (reference: y00772), highlighting its historical significance. Through its preservation, we are granted a glimpse into an era long gone but not forgotten. It is fascinating to imagine Queen Alexandra and King Edward passing under this very arch during their visit to Sheffield. Their arrival would have undoubtedly brought joy and jubilation to those who lined the streets of Pitsmoor, Burngreave, and beyond. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and its ability to transport us back over a century ago when royal visits were celebrated with great fanfare throughout Yorkshire.
