This heritage impact assessment and historic buildings appraisal has been commissioned ahead of the submission of a planning application for the proposed redevelopment of the site for hotel use with associated car parking to the side and rear. The assessment has identified that the majority of the Rising Sun complex is of a later date than the 18th century and is largely of little historical or architectural significance.

  • Earthwork Enclosure in Woodland 1 Ecclesall Woods, Sheffield Archaeological Survey
    Earthwork Enclosure in Woodland 1 Ecclesall Woods, Sheffield Archaeological Survey December 2006 Prepared for: Earthwork Enclosure in Woodland 1 Ecclesall Woods, Sheffield Archaeological Survey Non Technical Summary ASE Ltd was commissioned to carry out an earthwork enclosure in Woodland 1 at Ecclesall Woods, Sheffield. The survey was undertaken in August 2005 and constituted part of a community-based project funded by a Local Heritage Initiative grant. It was carried out by a group of volunteers from the Friends of Ecclesall Woods under the supervision of a consultant archaeologist. Training in recording archaeological earthworks and the use of a total station was delivered during the course of the survey. The earthwork enclosure was similar in form and construction to the enclosures that formed part of the field system associated with the hilltop enclosure in Woodland 3 at Ecclesall Woods. This field system was tentatively thought to be Iron Age or Romano-British in date. Despite the similarities with the enclosures in Woodland 3, the date of the Woodland 1 enclosure remains uncertain. Further evidence of agricultural activity with Woodland 1 was identified during the course of the survey, including a possible linear clearance feature and clearance cairn. The linear clearance feature would appear to represent at least two phases of activity, the second of which is considered to have been broadly contemporary with the earthwork enclosure. Several post mediaeval or modern features were also recorded during the course of the survey. One of these features, a hollow way, was thought to correspond to an earlier alignment of Cow Lane.

  • 7Km Ecclesall Woods Walk Incorporating Examples of Over 1000 Historical Features
    7km Ecclesall Woods walk Incorporating examples of over 1000 historical features. Please don’t take any statements here as definitive just the best I could do at the time, if you know more please let me know. Borrowings from various books and on-line sources mostly listed later… You may come across references to Woods number 1, 2 and 3. Wood 1 is northernmost bordered by Abbey Lane, Dobcroft Rd and Whirlowdale Rd. The other side of Whirlowdale Rd is Wood 2 with Abbey Lane to its West and running down to Abbeydale Rd. Wood 3 is West of Abbey Lane and features the bird sanctuary and Woodland Discovery Centre. The points of interest are in order of visit to the named points on the route map below. • Q-Pit This is one of the more distinct of about 60 Q-Pits in these woods. They are characterised by a raised circular earth & rubble bank with a break and possibly a banked ditch on the downslope side. Q-Pits were used for the production of “white coal”. This was wood that had been heated to the point that all the moisture was driven out but not allowed to char like charcoal. White coal burns intensely but at a lower temperature than charcoal and was used for small scale lead smelting, the lower temperature reduces vaporisation of the lead. Larger lead smelting operations were in “Boles”, there are several place names in the Peak District incorporating “Bole“ indicating they were the location of lead smelters. Lead was not mined in the woods but either the ore (galena) was brought here or the white coal delivered to the locations where it was to be used.

  • Crosspool Forum Volume 8 Issue 3 Having a Voice
    Autumn 2011 The Official Newsletter of the Crosspool Forum Volume 8 Issue 3 Having a voice . Making a difference TM. 0ver 2700 copies delivered quarterly Editor Ian Hague Local Dignitary Opens Crosspool Summer Fayre We were very pleased and delighted, when a founder CDYST trustee, Malcolm Clements kindly agreed to open our 2011 Summer Fayre. Held in high regard, and a valued member of the community, Malcolm was a prominent member of the trustees committee for many years, and very much involved in making sure that we are still able to benefit from the very much appreciated Sports facilities at Coldwell Lane . “It is a great pleasure to know that the Crosspool community is thriving and has such an active spirit. As I stand here my mind goes back to the time, over 50 years ago now, when the idea was born to buy a field Malcolm Clements for the use of the children of this area- an open space for sport and recreation among the buildings going up. Prime movers in this project were Ron Peck, Head Teacher at Lydgate School, Dr Marjorie Rushbrook of Manchester Road Surgery, Revd. Alan Jockel, Vicar of St. Columba’s and Revd. Norman Webb, Minister of Stephen Hill. Because I was the Youth Council Secretary of Stephen Hill at that time they invited me on to the Committee and, when the Trust was formed, to be one of the first Trustees of the Crosspool and District Sports Trust with them.
