The toll was a halfpenny for pedestrians and a penny for a horse and driver. The toll keeper from about 1923 was Joseph Gleadall, who was based in a little brick built cabin which had been put up with the original bridge which replaced a ferry (ferry operational in 1850). The bridge was used by workers wanting to get from Tinsley to Kimberworth and the nearby works, saving bus and tram fares.1 point

Interesting website which focus on Porter Brook from Hunters Bar down to Sheffield Station and the River Sheaf from Millhouses Park to the confluence with the River Don at Castlegate. It's also a registered charity, which you can join. Sheaf and Porter Trust1 point
