Autumn 1994 Issn 0965-8912 'DOOR DORE VILLAGE SOCIETY No. 35 AUTUMN 1994 ISSN 0965-8912 Sign of the times The appearance of a new flower bed 8 weeks ago on the land in front of Whirlow Gardens raised a few eyebrows - did it fit, where was the money coming from? The answer was soon apparent. The Council had sold advertising space to a commercial sponsor. For some time the Council has been running a modest, almost discreet, environmental partnership, where in return for contributing to maintenance costs companies can advertise themselves. You may have seen notices on flower beds and roundabouts. Like all modest schemes there has been little objection, but now things seem to be going further. Concern about the new sign at Whirlow has centred on the visual change it creates from a rural to urban landscape, on how the flower bed is out of scale with the site, on the design and sheer size of the notice, and that it The Well Dressing Service on the village green with Rev David Williams. points people coming into the city down Whirlowdale Road not into Dore etc etc. But most importantly has the Council cottoned Deadline for Winter 1994 Scout Gala onto a new way of raising money, and will our public land become festooned with Diary Events "What a marvellous day." advertising boards as in some other countries.

This was passed on to my son Gary by and old Totley resident no longer living in the village. I would speculate after speaking to a few older and former residents it would be approximately early 1900. Pubs were often known by the owner or landlord’s name hence Greens. Similarly in my younger days The Peacock at Owler Bar was known locally as Johnny Braughm’s. I would think the present Fleur was completed around 1930. J W Abson. Totley Residents Association Update Success at last!! After countless phone calls over several years, we have finally won. The “new” bus shelter at the Baslow Road / Glover Road corner is now operational, it only took 5 months to complete the tarmac and put in the glass! The same week as this was done, the other two bus shelters were finally turned round. Instead of sheltering the wall, waiting passengers are now protected from splashing by speeding traffic by the shelter. It has taken a combined effort by disgruntled residents writing to The Star, many complaints by suffering residents to Highways, Streetforce and South Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive and a continual regular stream of phone calls by yours truly to win the day. We did not give up and eventually we have won. Good news followed by bad. I expect you are all aware that Abbeydale Garden Centre has been sold to make way for a car park.

    'DOOR DORE VILLAGE SOCIETY No. 34 SUMMER 1994 ISSN 0965-8912 Review of Acute Services- Sheffield Health Authority For some months Sheffield Health Authority has been considering the future provision of acute services for the people of Sheffield. In order to meet financial constraints and offer a service appropriate to the needs of the population, various options were considered. A proposal to close Nether Edge Hospital was announced. This was met with some dismay by those who have personally, or have family/friends, who benefited from the quality rehabilitation service offered in such pleasant surroundings. Some services will be relocated, albeit on a smaller scale and the resultant saving from the closure will allow for development of services in the Community. New facilities to replace the ageing Jessop Hospital are required. The desirability of easy access to the Children's Hospital favour the Royal Hallamshire/Stonegrove site as an option.

    TOTLEY INDEPENDENT PUBLISHED CONTINUOUSLY SINCE 1977 www.totleyindependent.co.uk APRIL/MAY 2013 No. 361 20p. WARD FORUM Totley Hall Park. The new pump track (photo above) was opened for use on Friday 1st March. It was being well used on the following Saturday & Sunday, by young (a three year old) & old (40+ year olds). Two older mountain bikers who came to look at it said they were too scared to try it - didn’t want to be shown up by the three year old, I think! The novelty of it brought bikers from Crookes and Eckington, (who want to build one for their village), but most of the users to whom I spoke were local to Totley & Bradway. Funding came from Cotic Bikes, Big Stone (supplier to Cotic), the Freshgate Trust, the Sheffield Town Trust and the South West Community Assembly - our appreciation to them and the involvement of our local councillors. The Table Tennis pad is in place, and we await the OK from the builders before the table is put in place, which we hope will be before the end of the month. A pair of bats with balls will be provided, but we ask users to bring their own if possible. I’m told that a professional blade (the wooden bit) costs about £160, and the rubbers cost around £50 each. The “Ping” ones that we will provide, (courtesy of the English Table Tennis League) will not be at that price! Totley Residents Association has offered to supply some IF any go missing! The table was provided free of charge via the Sheffield Table Tennis League from the English Table Tennis league; and the pad was paid for by the South West Community Assembly.

    Totley History Group At Totley Library Wednesday, 28 January 2015 Present: 21 People General Items: Sally let us all know about the Ruskin in Sheffield series of events. Sally has been commissioned as a writer to write about Ruskin’s St George’s Farm and its legacy where they tried to work collectively. Sally is writing a performance piece as a walk to Woodthorpe Hall and to return to the library, meeting various characters along the way. Sally is looking for anyone who would like to help with research and also for the performance, to be a performer, also help with gathering costumes, tools, refreshments. Information will be in the Totley Independent, it is hoped this will be on the weekend of 20 and 21 June. Speaker – The Rise and Fall of the Workhouses focusing on the local area by Suzanne Bingham Suzanne gave a fascinating talk about the workhouses. Everyone was thanked for turning up in the wind and snow to enjoy this! It was in the 18th century when many of the workhouses were built. In 1834 there was a Poor Law Amendment Act to ensure the workhouse conditions were made so that people would only go there if they were desperate, this was because workhouses were funded by a parish “poor rate” similar to the present day council tax and local ratepayers didn’t want to pay any more than absolutely necessary. Unions of parishes came together to have one large workhouse. By 1880 50% of the inhabitants were the elderly, 30% were children. Later in the 19th century legislation was passed requiring that every workhouse should have a separate hospital building.

T h e Bill for the Dore and Chinley line was first introduced into Parlia- ment in 1884, with the support of the Midland Company, and sanction was obtained for the incorporation of the Dore and Chinley Railway Company and for the construction of the line. On the failure of that company, in 1887, to raise the necessary capital, the Midland Company obtained sanction in 1888 for the acquisition of its powers, and the works were commenced forthwith. Two contracts were let; the first 10|- miles being taken by Mr. Thomas Oliver, of Horsham, and the remainder by Mr. J. P. Edwards, of Chester. The engineers were Messrs. Parry & Storey, M.M.Inst.C.E., of Nottingham and Derby, and the works proved to be of an exceptionally heavy character. There are three tunnels: the Totley Tunnel, over 3 | miles in length ; the Cowburn Tunnel, over 2 miles long; and a short tunnel of over 90 yards on the Dore South Junction Curve.

It was as we were discussing and planning the book that we started to realise what we had taken on; and as the months passed, we became even more aware of the scale of the task, especially as we were determined to produce a quality book. If we have achieved our objective, it has been in no small measure due to the help and assistance we have received from a variety of Dore residents, all on a voluntary basis. We would like to start by recording our thanks to the individuals who initially walked each walk, sometimes in adverse weather, and produced the first drafts for each walk.
