The park is close to the Norfolk Heritage Trail, which takes in the ruins of 16th century Sheffield Manor Lodge – which once held Mary Queen of Scots prisoner – as well as City Road Cemetery, Norfolk Heritage Park, the Cholera Monument and more. 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.

Sheffield Street Tree Strategy Development Group
Sheffield Street Tree Strategy Development Group i-Tree Eco Stratified Inventory Report November 2019 The Authors James Watson - Treeconomics Reviewed By: Danielle Hill - Treeconomics This assessment was carried out by Treeconomics 1 Executive Summary In this report, the street trees in Sheffield have been assessed based on the benefits that they provide to society. These trees, which form part of Sheffield’s natural capital, are generally recognised and appreciated for their amenity, presence and stature in the cityscape and surroundings. However, society is often unaware of the many other benefits (or ecosystem services) that trees provide to those living in our towns and cities. The trees in and around our urban areas (together with woodlands, shrubs, hedges, open grass, green space and wetland) are collectively known as the ‘urban forest’. This urban forest improves our air, protects watercourses, saves energy, and improves economic sustainability1. There are also many health and well-being benefits associated with being in close proximity to trees and there is a growing research base to support this2. Sheffield’s street trees are a crucial part of the city’s urban forest, rural areas and woodlands. Many of the benefits that Sheffield’s urban forest provides are offered through its street trees. Economic valuation of the benefits provided by our natural capital3 (including the urban forest) can help to mitigate for development impacts, inform land use changes and reduce any potential impact through planned intervention to avoid a net loss of natural capital. Such information can be used to help make better management decisions. Yet, as the benefits provided by such natural capital are often poorly understood, they are often undervalued in the decision making process.

The land was saved for the public of Sheffield by the great philanthropist, Alderman J.G. Graves. The place we see today is the site of the older ‘Norton Park’ which was a famous location as a so-called ‘picturesque’ landscape in the 1700s and 1800s. With its unrivalled views west to the Peak District, the park was famed for its glorious sunsets and was a place to visit for the enlightened society of the time. Together with the Friends of Graves Park group, we have been investigating to re- discover this ‘lost’ parkland. The present phase of work supported by The National Lottery Heritage Fund has now closed. Work so far with the Friends of Graves Park, South Yorkshire Biodiversity Research Group, and Sheffield Hallam University has unearthed a rich diversity of evidence and materials relating to the history of the park and its threatened heritage.
