EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the original architects drawing for the esteemed Collegiate School in Collegiate Crescent, beautifully crafted by Robert Potter back in 1835. Preserved at Sheffield Archives under the reference Potter Plans/12/1, this historical gem offers a glimpse into the meticulous planning that went into creating this architectural masterpiece. Although it was eventually constructed with slight variations and larger wings as part of a later enlargement, this drawing captures the essence of what would become an iconic educational institution. The watercolours used to bring life to this sketch add depth and vibrancy to every stroke, highlighting the attention to detail put forth by Potter. Collegiate School holds a special place in Sheffield's history, serving as a beacon of knowledge and inspiration for generations. Its location on Collegiate Crescent adds an air of elegance and prestige to its surroundings. This image transports us back in time, allowing us to envision how Broomhall Street once looked when it was home to such an esteemed establishment. As we admire this remarkable piece from Sheffield City Archives, let us appreciate not only its artistic value but also its significance within our community's educational heritage. May it serve as a reminder of the dedication and vision required to create enduring institutions that shape young minds for years to come.
