On the Diversity of Urban Waterscape J
Proceedings of the Acoustics 2012 Nantes Conference 23-27 April 2012, Nantes, France On the diversity of urban waterscape J. Kang University of Sheffield, School of Architecture, S10 2TN Sheffield, UK j.kang@sheffield.ac.uk 3533 23-27 April 2012, Nantes, France Proceedings of the Acoustics 2012 Nantes Conference In the last several hundred years the development of Sheffield has been shaped by waterways. In the recent city centre regeneration, starting in the 1990s, great efforts have been made to ensure that the reconnection with the rivers continues to be fostered and their role in the history of the city celebrated. Waterscapes and squares have been embedded into the city for its vibrancy with the respect of the history of Sheffield. This paper examines the soundscape with waterscape along the Gold Route formed in the city centre regeneration project. The changes of waterscape sound levels with frequency and time at different locations of the Gold Route are analysed. Comparisons have also been made between different water features along the Gold Route in terms of psychoacoustic parameters including loudness, roughness, sharpness, and fluctuation strength. A series of field questionnaire surveys in selected locations along the Gold Route have shown that water sounds are the most preferred sounds in the soundscape. 1 Introduction The city’s first settlement developed at the confluence of the Rivers Don and Sheaf, around the 12th century. With the role as a market town at this time, Sheffield had continued to be shaped by waterways. Sheffield’s access to abundant natural resources made it an ideal centre for iron and steel industry, and the rivers contributed considerably to the production and industry of the city development.

Page 13 View That As Much of the Frontage of Cambridge Street Should Be Retained in Order to Maintain the Context Within Which Leah’S Yard Is Located
Sheffield Conservation Advisory Group SHEFFIELD RETAIL QUARTER Observations on the outline planning application 1. SCAG considered the proposals for the Sheffield Retail Quarter at a special meeting on 29 September 2015. 2. The question that the Group has considered is whether the scheme would preserve and enhance the character and appearance of the City Centre Conservation Area, in which much of the scheme lies, and its impact on listed buildings in, and immediately adjacent to, the area, one of which is Grade I (Town Hall). 3. The Group considers that the proposals are an improvement on the previous schemes produced by Hammersons, although has reservations about aspects of the scheme as it currently appears. These are set out below. The Group is also conscious that the success of the scheme will depend in large measure on the detailed realisation of the individual blocks. But they take the view that it is essential that the overall form and massing of the development is subject to critical analysis at this stage, given that an outline permission will constrain the way in which the scheme can be integrated into the fabric of the city. 4. The Group’s major concern is about the views of the development from key locations within the city centre and the relationship of new buildings to their immediate surroundings. The scheme proposals make much play of the view along Fargate and the proposed New Fargate from Marks & Spencers store to the new anchor department store to the north of the present Charter Square. The Group expressed concern over the views from the Peace Gardens and the Town Hall steps and the way in which the proposed height of buildings would dominate the frontages in Pinstone Street, including Town Hall Chambers.

The Economic Development of Sheffield and the Growth of the Town Cl740-Cl820
The Economic Development of Sheffield and the Growth of the Town cl740-cl820 Neville Flavell PhD The Division of Adult Continuing Education University of Sheffield February 1996 Volume Two PART TWO THE GROWTH OF THE TOWN <2 6 ?- ti.«» *• 3 ^ 268 CHAPTER 14 EXPANSION FROM 1736 IGOSLING) TO 1771 (FAIRBANKS THE TOWN IN 1736 Sheffield in Gosling's 1736 plan was small and relatively compact. Apart from a few dozen houses across the River Dun at Bridgehouses and in the Wicker, and a similar number at Parkhill, the whole of the built-up area was within a 600 yard radius centred on the Old Church.1 Within that brief radius the most northerly development was that at Bower Lane (Gibraltar), and only a limited incursion had been made hitherto into Colson Crofts (the fields between West Bar and the river). On the western and north-western edges there had been development along Hollis Croft and White Croft, and to a lesser degree along Pea Croft and Lambert Knoll (Scotland). To the south-west the building on the western side of Coalpit Lane was over the boundary in Ecclesall, but still a recognisable part of the town.2 To the south the gardens and any buildings were largely confined by the Park wall which kept Alsop Fields free of dwellings except for the ingress along the northern part of Pond Lane. The Rivers Dun and Sheaf formed a natural barrier on the east and north-east, and the low-lying Ponds area to the south-east was not ideal for house construction.

An Analysis of Group Behaviour and Commenting on Flickr
An Analysis of Group Behaviour and Commenting on Flickr A study submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Librarianship at THE UNIVERSITY OF SHEFFIELD by Megan Amy Swart September 2008 I Acknowledgements A huge thank you to everyone who supported me through the conduction of this research: specifically, to my tutor Dr Paul Clough for his encouragement, advice and enthusiasm, and to Ambrose, my family and friends – because of whom this summer of writing was much more bearable! Finally, a special thanks to all at the Sheffield Flickr group, I could not have done this without you. II Abstract Background The literature conducted previously on Flickr has emphasised the importance of collaborative tagging, however it has also highlighted an information gap focussing on other popular areas of usage on Flickr such as that of group dynamics and commenting behaviour. Aims This research is an exploratory study of the commenting behaviour within the Sheffield group on Flickr. The aim is to investigate the different types of comments; specifically positive and negative comments that users leave on each others images and to examine the impact of using Flickr groups and such commenting on the photographic practice of the group members. Methods This research employs a mixed-methodology, including a content analysis of 2 sets comments from 100 randomly selected photographs added to the Sheffield group on Flickr. An online questionnaire was also formulated and proposed to the group, of which a response rate of 26 different members was received. In addition, the Flickr API was used to collate data about the individual members of the group including the number of groups joined and the number of contacts they have.
