The green route explores the city’s central waterways. It follows the canal from its basin at Victoria Quays, crossing a bridge to run alongside the River Don. Meanwhile the blue route heads uphill, passing sights such as the iconic Park Hill flats and the Cholera Monument – where you’ll be treated to a brilliant view across the whole of the city centre. A path through Clay Wood leads on to a loop of Norfolk Heritage Park, with its grand entrance and its spectacular tree-lined avenues. If it is dark you may prefer to return by the outward route rather than crossing the footbridge over the railway.

Our vision is clear: To be a modern, vibrant, green city where people choose to live, invest and work To be a Council that gets things right first time for our customers To be a city where everyone can achieve their full potential The people and communities of Sheffield are critical to the achievement of that vision. However, we know that there are still people in the city who do not have the opportunity to fulfil their potential, and communities where major challenges remain. 1.2 Our ambitions To tackle these challenges, we have set out in our Corporate Plan, A City of Opportunity, the six key areas of ambition for the Council. These are: leading Sheffield’s transformation, creating vibrant, safe and strong communities, protecting and enhancing the environment, creating a better life for children and young people, supporting people to be healthy and independent, and putting the customer first and achieving better value for money.

Number 154 August 2011

From the Chair Being elected Chairman in the middle of Jubilee Year has made for very interesting times. I was born and bred in this city and I thought I knew it so well. Yet, in mid May, I joined an afternoon cruise down the Sheffield Canal and saw very familiar sights from a completely new angle. We climbed aboard in Victoria Quay and it was a leisurely journey made more enjoyable by banks of red valerian, mallard ducks sunning themselves in the dappled light and a new and welcome sight to the canal this season - a pair of swans nesting. Another cruise is booked for September and I wait to hear with interest if they spot the cygnets. If you have a spare hour or two over the summer I urge you to take a walk into the Woodland Garden in Whirlow Brook Park. The transformation by SU3A‘s Gardening Group from a totally overgrown mesh of brambles and neglected shrubs to an eye pleasing garden is truly remarkable in such a short time and through such a harsh winter. This commemorative site sits so comfortably in the landscape, yet is only in its infancy, with partial planting of rhododendrons, camellias and other ericaceous soil loving shrubs. There is still much to do and it is not too late to get involved by either donating in memory of a loved one or by doing some spade work. If you can help in any way please contact Alison Cowper on (0114) 274 6165, Do you remember Harry Patch? He was known as ―The Last Fighting Tommy‖ when he died on 25 July 2009 aged 111 years.
Hunter Archaeological Society

HUNTER ARCHAEOLOGICAL SOCIETY NEWSLETTER May 2011 Welcome to the spring newsletter of 2011 and a warm welcome to any new members who have recently joined us. I hope you have enjoyed the sunny Easter break. Our spring talks have been outstanding. Our first main society lecture of the new year was by Clive Waddington entitled ‘Fin Cop – A Hill Fort in Context’; Clive gave us a clear overview of all the work on the site to date, including the discovery of records of a skeleton from a cave at Hob House which is currently being dated. The skeletal evidence from the massive hill fort ditches brings into focus our views of the period around 300BC. Neolithic and Late Bronze Age material from the interior of the fort indicates the length of occupation of this strategic site. In February Prof. Peter Fawcett introduced ‘A Tale of Two Cities; The inter-war Architecture of Sheffield and Nottingham’ to a larger than usual audience – he gave us a fascinating account of the design of many familiar and not so well-known public and residential buildings dating to the 1930s. In March Dr. Andrew Grierson, from the Department of Neuroscience at Sheffield University, gave us a very compelling session on the use of the statistically reliable (if not predictable) mutation of the male Y chromosome to analyse population groups and estimate how long they have been around. Aided by a host of Welshmen anxious to give samples and prove their Celtic, non-English origins, he scrutinised a proposition that the Great Orme copper miners were Romans or their associates.

Centuries ago it formed part of the Lords of Hallamshire’s deer park and in the 1800s was the site of three mine shafts, before giving way to allotments that contributed to the Dig for Victory effort during the second world war.
