EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an Ordnance Survey Map of the Alma Street/Netherthorpe area in Sheffield, dating back to 1889. The map, known as Yorkshire sheet 294.8.6, provides a fascinating glimpse into the industrial landscape of the time. In the top left corner of the map, we can see various notable landmarks and businesses that once thrived in this area. These include Taylor and Co. , a prominent steam hammer manufacturer on Alma Street, as well as Union Grinding Wheel Company and Ibbotson Brothers and Co. Ltd. , steel merchants and manufacturers. Additionally, two sites of Globe Steel Works are marked along with Kelham Island Rolling Mill and Iron Works. Moving to the top right section of the map reveals more streets such as Cotton Street, Corporation Street, Bridge Street, and Nursery Street. Notable establishments featured here include Naylor Vickers and Co. , a forge and rolling mills company at Mill Sands Works; Colver Brothers Ltd. , steel manufacturers at Pilot Works; Soho Grinding Works; Public Baths on Mowbray Street; Brown Cow Public House; Borough Bridge; Union Buildings; Iron Bridge; Bridge Inn; Spital Fields. The bottom left portion highlights Kelham Street, Russell Street, Green Lane among others.

Measuring 77 x 102 cm with a scale of 10.56 feet:1 mile (1:500), this first edition map was surveyed in 1889 before its publication in 1890 by Sheffield Libraries (q00077).
