EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate "Plan of the Dalton Parva Estate" in Rotherham, York County, dating back to 1851. The estate belonged to F W T V Wentworth, a prominent figure of that era. Crafted by Edward Surtees with meticulous attention to detail, this map offers an invaluable glimpse into the historical landscape and property boundaries of Dalton Parva. Measuring 41 x 31 cm, this remarkable piece is preserved at Sheffield City Archives' Local Studies collection under reference E (289)1S. The scale used for this plan is particularly fascinating as it represents eight chains per inch - a unique measurement system employed during that time period. The image portrays an exquisite blend of artistry and cartography, capturing the essence of rural life in mid-19th century Yorkshire. From sprawling fields and meandering streams to quaint cottages nestled amidst lush greenery, every element on this map tells a story about the region's rich heritage. While it's important not to use this print for commercial purposes due to copyright restrictions, its value lies in its ability to transport us back in time and provide insights into land ownership patterns and community development from over a century ago. This archival gem serves as a testament to our collective history and invites us on an enchanting journey through Dalton Parva's past.
