    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.

In this pack you should find sufficient information to enable you to settle into the area, find out about the facilities on offer, and details of many of the clubs and societies. If specific information about your particular interest or need is not shown, then pop into the Town Hall Information Point and ask there. If they don't know the answer, they usually know someone who does! The Parish Council produces a quarterly Newsletter which is available from the Town Hall or the Post Office. Chapel is a small friendly town with a long history, in a beautiful location, almost surrounded by the Peak District National Park. It's about 800 feet above sea level, and its neighbour, Dove Holes, is about 1000 feet above, so while the weather can be sometimes wild, on good days its situation is magnificent. The Parish Council takes pride in maintaining the facilities it directly controls, and ensures that as far as possible, the other Councils who provide many of the local services - High Peak Borough Council (HPBC) and Derbyshire County Council (DCC) also serve the area well.

Hidden by trees there is no public view of the frontage and the side view, from the footpath that leads from Long Lane up towards Castle Naze, is of semi-dereliction with grounds overgrown and a large plain structure, Grade II listed, but now under threat. As residents of houses which were once part of the Bank Hall estate the writers have film taken in the 1930s and 1940s showing Bank Hall functioning as a smart country house. After tlre Second World War it was tumed to various uses including flats for retired army officers, a nursing home, a special school and a homeless hostel. It is currently semi-abandoned. Bank Hall The Hall and estate buildings which exist today are largely the work of Henry Constantine Renshaw, a Salford flax spinner, who bought the estate in 1864 and lived there until his death in 1894.

  • £137 Million Investment to Upgrade the Hope Valley Line
    £137 million investment to upgrade the Hope Valley line March 11, 2021 HS2 Minister Andrew Stephenson has announced government funding to upgrade the Hope Valley train line – a train line between Manchester and Sheffield. He made the announcement on Thursday in the House of Commons. He said: “The government is committed to levelling up rail infrastructure across the north, and in that spirit I am delighted to confirm that we have awarded £137 million to Network Rail to complete detailed designs and deliver the Hope Valley capacity scheme. “This scheme will transform journeys between the Northern Powerhouse cities of Manchester and Sheffield by removing bottlenecks on the Hope Valley line. “I pay tribute to the member for High Peak, who has campaigned relentlessly for this scheme and has helped get it over the line.” In response High Peak MP Robert Largan Tweeted: “£137 million Hope Valley line upgrade approved. We’ve done it. I’m absolutely delighted the Government have just approved the upgrade to the Manchester-Sheffield line, which serves New Mills, Chinley, Edale, Hope & Bamford. This is a huge win for High Peak and the North.” To help meet future demand, the Hope Valley capacity scheme is designed to removed bottlenecks on the line by creating places for fast passenger services to overtake slower moving freight trains, allowing more trains to run and increasing the reliability of services. Network Rail is now finalising detailed designs that will improve sections of the railway between Bamford station and Jaggers Lane Bridge in Hathersage, and around Dore & Totley station where a second platform will also be added.

So many parishes in S.E. Derbyshire have been dealt with in this Series that it was hoped and intended that the present volume would be devoted entirely to the High Peak district and would contain a compact group of adjacent parishes, an arrangement which always brings out in a peculiar degree the value of this method of printing the complete Marriage Registers of a whole district. Unfortunately it was not found possible to obtain sufficient MS. from the High Peak without delaying indefinitely the issue of the volume, already overdue. The latter third of the book, therefore, has been filled with the important Register of Repton, the MS. of which had been ready for some time. The Repton abstracts were made by Mr. Simpson and Mr. E. B. Smith ; those of Chapel-en-le-Frith, which contain so many entries of old-established Peak families as to be of exceptional interest to genealogists, were done by of Fairfield Mr. W.
