Off the Shelf Festival of Words Sheffield 12 October - 2 November 2013 Platinum Sponsor Introduction Welcome to Off the Shelf Festival of Words, now in its 22nd year and one of the highlights of the city’s events calendar. If you love words and are looking for a diverse and exciting programme of events, including some of the best known names in Gold Sponsor literature and media, look no further. We are delighted that we have our first female guest curator this year - writer Jackie Kay. Jackie’s poem, commissioned last year for the Kick it Out anti-racism campaign, can now be seen permanently at Sheffield United’s Bramall Lane ground. We are very grateful to Platinum Sponsor Civica and Arts Council England and to all our supporters and sponsors for their fantastic support. We would also like to thank our Silver Sponsor audiences - over 25,000 people attended the festival last year and we hope to welcome even more of you this year. Enjoy….

    Former Ye Old Harrow Public House Sheffield City Centre Prepared by: MB Checked & approved by: CD Client: Haibus Limited Date: March 2020 Broad Street, Sheffield, S2 5TG 1.1 Since its closure in 2008, Ye Old Harrow has fallen into a state of disrepair, which has been accelerated by damage resulting from an arson attack in 2019. Meanwhile, the surrounding area has been subject to significant development or redevelopment. Namely, the site in question is nestled between a modern mixed-use development with Victoria Quays beyond to the north, with the ongoing redevelopment of the Grade II* listed Park Hill gathering momentum to the south. Connectivity and the public realm are also being improved through the phased implementation of the nearby Grey to Green initiative, which is re-establishing links to previously disconnected areas on the fringe of the City Centre. As such, the site possesses considerable potential and can make a positive contribution to the regeneration of the wider City Centre. 1.2 This report has therefore been prepared by Urbana Town Planning Limited on behalf of Haibus Limited in order to help inform this process, by setting out the general context with respect to planning and planning policy. 1.3 In addition to providing the crucial planning background and context, the key objective of this document is also to make an informed assessment of the site’s development potential. In doing so, advice is offered as to how the site might best be taken forward into the formal planning process. 2.1 Below is an aerial image of the site in question, which is outlined in red.

On the lime-quarried hillside down a stony lane lined with ash and hazel a poor disused chapel where fierce hymns give men courage. Hardship on this hillside, riven by lime and bracken, thistle and scree. A cold, slow rain on a cottage in the dell mortared with the blood of quarrymen hill-farmers. Sheep grieve above the oak wood where a mistle-thrush storms hell. A feral cat hunts the black redstart; so rare, so shy. Cover design and edited by Alan Morrison November beeches aflame, as many fallen leaves as slain quarry men. Resistance of pain in the chest and spat gob. From a dry-stone wall, Jenny Wren’s song holier than remembrance. Dangerous to take the sheep track at dusk. The blessedness of February wind through an old goat-willow. Here men pray with their stomachs: the gnarled upland cabbage in a broth with barley. The language of hunger: an alcoholic’s lack.
