    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.

  • British Engine Boiler Insurance Company Limited
    British Engine, Boiler and Electrical Insurance Company Limited, 1878- 1991 Location and extent of archival material: SS4/2-8, 57 boxes The listing has been completed in box number order and there has been no attempt to arrange material into series as the collection simply includes a large selection of miscellaneous company catalogues. Company history The Company was founded in Manchester on November 12 1878 under the title of ‘The Engine and Boiler Insurance Company’ with RB Longridge as Chairman and Micheal Longridge (his nephew) as Chief Engineer. The Longridge family were established engineers at the beginning of the 19th Century. They were originally iron masters of Bedlington, Northumberland who also supplied castings and forgings to the engineers of the day. They were involved in the early development of industrial steam engines and were business partners with both George and Robert Stephenson. Members of the Longridge family continued to serve the Insurance Company from the early days until the introduction of nuclear power. RB Longridge formed The Steam Boiler Assurance Company in 1859 but later resigned. Following his resignation he formed ‘The Engine and Boiler Insurance Company Limited’. Within two years the name changed to ‘The Engine, Boiler and Employers’ Liability Company Limited’. In 1903, the Silver Jubilee year the title ‘British Engine, Boiler and Electrical Insurance Company Limited’ was adopted, and in 1978 the title was abbreviated to ‘British Engine Insurance Limited’. The family association terminated in 1966 with the retirement of HM Longridge. The name of Longridge was perpetuated in the title of the Head Office building in Manchester- Longridge House, erected in 1959 on a site embracing that of the original Manchester Steam Users Association of which RB Longridge was Chief Inspector.

    Sheffield City Council – England Date July 2011 2011 Air Quality Progress Report for Sheffield City Council In fulfillment of Part IV of the Environment Act 1995 Local Air Quality Management July, 2011 2011 Progress Report i Date July 2011 Sheffield City Council – England Local Andrew Elleker Authority Officer Department Carbon Reduction and Air Quality, Transport and Highways Address 2 Carbrook Hall Rd Sheffield S9 2DB Telephone 0114 2734655 e-mail [email protected] Report Reference number Date July 2011 ii 2011 Progress Report Sheffield City Council – England Date July 2011 Executive Summary This report is the Progress Report 2011, which is prepared as part of the ongoing Local Air Quality Management (LAQM) process. Previous assessments have shown there to be a problem with the likelihood of exceedence of the DEFRA objectives for nitrogen dioxide and PM10 (fine particulate). For this reason an Air Quality Management Area (AQMA), covering the whole of the urban area, has previously been designated for nitrogen dioxide (annual mean objective), for nitrogen dioxide (hourly mean objective) and PM10 (24 hour mean). An Air Quality Action Plan (AQAP) was drawn up in 2003 to try to improve air quality (nitrogen dioxide) in the AQMA. This has proved ineffective and any successes of the AQAP, in improving air quality, have been negated by the general increase in traffic levels. At present a new AQAP is being produced for nitrogen dioxide and PM10. More ambitious measures will be needed to improve air quality. The draft AQAP went out in May 2011 for consultation and will be reworked taking consideration of these comments before going to Cabinet for approval in late 2011.

  • Sheffield Patrol Group
    SHEFFIELD PATROL GROUP presents SHEFFIELD Poor wretch! who once hath paced that dolent city Shall pace it often, doomed beyond all pity, With horror ever deepening from the first... A local community leader pauses from discussion with a trainee Robocop to look suspiciously towards the photographer. Abbeyfield Park is in Burngreave, Sheffield and the festival was an attempt at promoting community cohesion in a multicultural area of the city characterised by high levels of unemployment and poverty. It was a pleasant day and a substantial crowd had gathered to smoke dope, drink Special Brew, graze on street food and enjoy a programme of second rate music. Zion Train were the headlining act, but they didn’t manage to make it on stage due to a bomb scare bringing the event to a premature end. The festival was held just a few days after the murderous outrage perpetrated on the citizens of London by a nihilistic death squad protesting global injustice in the name of Islam. Despite the atmosphere of fear and paranoia that reigned throughout England at the time, the evacuation of the festival was calm and orderly. The legacy of kowtowing to paternalistic authority that marks the post- industrial cities of Britain has its virtues. The cancelled event was restaged in September. 2 There seem to be a lot of hairdressing salons in the English-speaking world that refer to the Acropolis in their business names. I don’t know why. Maybe the caryatids of the Porch of the Maidens on the Erechtheion are renowned for their quality hair-dos? Langsett Road in Sheffield seems to have little in common with Athens.

  • SLI 22 Title: Beet Lantern Slide Collection
    University of Sheffield Library. Special Collections and Archives Ref: SLI 22 Title: Beet Lantern Slide Collection Scope: A collection of just under 2,500 lantern slides collected by Arthur Edgar Beet, an academic in the Applied Science Department at the University of Sheffield in the first half of the 20th century. Dates: Late 19th and early 20th century Level: Fonds Extent: c.2,500 slides Name of Creator: Arthur Edgar Beet Administrative/biographical history: This collection consists of just under 2,500 magic lantern slides covering a wide variety of subjects, including photographs of late 19th century Sheffield, illustrations of scenes from children’s tales and Bible stories, images of the Boer War and the First World War, portraits of important historical figures, and photographs of London and European cities. The majority of the slides are standard UK lantern slides 3¼ inches square, but there are also a wide range of panorama slides, single slipper slides, double slipper slides, glass pivot slides, rackwork slides and rare and unique homemade glass slides. Arthur Edgar Beet was a lecturer in fuel technology at the University of Sheffield in the first half of the twentieth century. He was an amateur local historian who developed an interest in collecting lantern slides and projection equipment: a large addition to his collection was made in 1954 by John Arthur Southern, who bequeathed to Beet his own collection of 800 slides and a late 19th century projector. On Beet’s death in 1968, his son, A.D.H. Beet offered to donate the collection of slides to the University of Sheffield.

  • Geography 497: International Field Study, Summer 2003 Field Trip
    Geography 497: International Field Study, Summer 2003 Field Trip Summary SUNDAY June 22: 7.00 p.m. Dinner, Halifax Hall, Sheffield University. Final pre-trip preparations are discussed in a local pub, conveniently located within 10 minutes walk. MONDAY, June 23: 7.30 a.m. Breakfast. 9.15 a.m. We begin by walking towards Endcliffe Park and Whiteley Woods where Shepherd Wheel is located. On the way, we pass some Victorian housing and at the junction of Ecclesall Road, Hunter’s Bar, now covered by trees, is the site of a former toll gate (really toll house). Hunter’s Bar was erected around 1700 as part of a turnpike trust to charge road users for the upkeep of the road. There were 10 turnpike trusts controlling 16 toll gates in Sheffield. Hunter’s Bar was the last to close in 1884. Photo 1: Geography 497 in Endcliffe Park. Parks for recreational purposes are a long established, widespread feature of the Sheffield landscape found throughout the city (outside of the central area). Part of the Sheffield web-based promotional literature claims the city is one of the greenest in Europe, including 78 public parks, 10 gardens and 170 woodlands. Many of the parks are large. Photo 2: Shepherd Wheel 9.52 a.m. Shepherd Wheel is on the Porter River, Whiteley Woods. The site comprises cutlery grinding and polishing operations and a water wheel. The latter which provided power for grinding stones (made out of local sandstone) was driven by a dam created by diverting water from the Porter River.
