    Cadman Lane

    Thought i`d have a look on Google Earth at the exact location of Cadman Street to get an idea of the area in tozzins enquiry! by mistake i searched Cadman Lane, which took me to the lane behind the Graduate Pub on Surrey Street, i was intrigued by the brickwork on the rear of the pub, can anyone tell me if this is an extension to the building or is it part of the original building? A couple of photographs, one from Google Earth showing the brickwork and one from Bing Maps showing the buildings location.
  7. Any info on the house or the gate house please ? I know it was a Naval Cadette training base , where has the old boforse gun gone?, but has it past naval links,who built it and when ? Also the playing fields in front of it , what are they built on i.e. gardens or the remains of mine workings, as I have seen large issues of water spring up from the bank sides in front of the old wood at the side,after very heavy rain fall.

    Lodge Moor Hospital

    Copied from Wikipedia. "In 1955 the Board recommended that Crimicar Lane should no longer be used as a hospital and the tuberculosis Huts were demolished at that time.[2] All patients were transferred to Lodge Moor Hospital on 31 May 1956.[1] The hospital stood empty for some time before the remaining buildings were demolished to make way for the housing which now stands on Westminster Crescent. All that remains of the old hospital are the perimeter wall and the main gates which have a memorial plaque attached to them.[1]" Full Wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crimicar_Lane_Hospital Crimicar Lane Hospital, Sheffield https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/2fecb3e5-bc53-4b16-96d4-5df8d95893df Including Information: Crimicar Lane Hospital and Sanatorium was opened in November 1902 for the reception of smallpox cases. It consisted of two wards, each accommodating 21 beds; an isolation block accommodating four wards each with two beds; also an administrative block, laundry and disinfector. Prior to the First World War the hospital was primarily for cases of smallpox, but consumptive (tuberculosis) patients were admitted if smallpox cases were lacking. In 1915 a temporary wooden ward was erected to accommodate 48 patients and an extension to the administrative block was built in 1916. Many patients were those associated with the cutlery industry: grindstones and buffing wheels created a huge amount of gritty dust. Silicosis was the cause of great mortality, as was tuberculosis which was often associated with the "dolly polishing" of silverware. In 1950 the hospital had accommodation for 53 patients. In 1955 the Planning Committee of Sheffield Regional Hospital Board recommended that the use of the premises as a hospital be discontinued and that the patients be moved to Lodge Moor Hospital. The buildings were to be retained pending instructions from the Ministry of Health. The patients were all transferred out of the hospital on 31 May 1956; the patients at Commonside Sanatorium also being transferred to Lodge Moor at around the same time. The hospital buildings were later demolished to make way for housing; all that remains are the part of the perimeter wall and gates (2004). Administration The hospital was administered by Hospitals Committee of Sheffield City Council, established under the Public Health Act, 1875. In 1927 this committee became a sub-committee of the Health Committee. At the establishment of the National Health Service in 1948 management, like other hospitals formerly administered by the Council, passed to the Sheffield No 3 Hospital Management Committee of Sheffield Regional Hospital Board (SRHB).

    High Hazels

    http://www.lhi.org.uk/projects_directory/p...rt_history.html Extract : Throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, the areas of Darnall and Tinsley were well known across Sheffield for the coal and steel industries. The immediate area around High Hazels Park was mined for coal, iron and stone, which were worked in the adjacent woodlands. Given the industrial nature of the area, High Hazels Park offered a welcome contrast to the surrounding hard landscape and provided local residents with an escape from the built up environment. The Park offered a vital link to the natural world, and was a much-valued place for relaxation, participation in sports and family pursuits for people from all over Sheffield. In 1850 William Jeffcock (the first Mayor of Sheffield) commissioned High Hazels House, 'to be built regardless of cost'. When finished, the principal rooms were described as being 'splendidly decorated and of noble proportions'. There were numerous bedrooms, stabling for twelve horses, and a number of outbuildings. The arches that lead to the main entrance were built of the same stone as the Houses of Parliament. High Hazels House was, and indeed remains, an impressive work of design and architecture.

    Sheffield Water Works Company

    Beginnings of Sheffield Water Works. Extracts from Reminiscences of old Sheffield, its streets and it's people. Edited by Robert Eadon Leader 1875 from articles and letters from the Sheffield and Rotherham Independent 1872/3. Page 42. Twiss: The original water-house of the Water Company is still standing, at the sharp angle between Pinfold Street and Campo Lane. It has just come into the possession of the Town Trustees, and will doubtless soon be sacrificed on the altar of street improvements. A comparison of this with the present handsome premises of the Company, in Barker Pool, exhibits very strikingly the contrast between the old order of things and the new. Leighton: In the angular space at the top of Townhead street, formed by the meeting of Church Street, Bow Street, Pinfold Street, and Townhead Street, stood formerly the Townhead cross. None of us can remember it — I doubt whether any of us know when it disappeared, or whither it went; but that is no reason for passing it by without notice. Twiss: The premises at the top of Townhead Street now occupied by Mr. Jackson, pork-butcher, have a history. Here resided, more than a century ago, Mr. Matthewman, who was one of the originators of the Water Company. In 1744, he and Mr. Battie succeeded to the powers granted in 1713 to Messrs. Goodwin and Littlewood by the Lord of the Manor, and constructed the first works at Crookes moor. He was the maternal grandfather of Mr. Albert Smith. Everard: This house was occupied for some years by Mr. Moorhouse, surgeon, who got killed by a fall from his horse. On his decease, Mr. James Kay, who had served his time with him, purchased the business of the widow; and, after living and carrying on his profession on the premises for a considerable period, he built and removed to the house in Victoria street, Glossop road. At the time it was generally thought he was going too far out into the country. Mr. Kay was a tall and noble-looking man, more especially when on horseback. Page 135. Leighton: The old Lancasterian school — before that a riding school, as its rough interior will enable you readily to believe — has broken out into shops since the new schools were built in Bowling Green Street. Some seventy or eighty years ago, or so, that building and the "Water-house" at the bottom of Allen Lane, where the Burkinshaws were accustomed to preside over the sale of water by the bucketful, were the extremity of the town in this direction. On the premises last mentioned, the wooden water pipes, which may occasionally be seen when the Company is making repairs, were bored by hand. Some of them were taken up from Broad Lane only a short time ago. Johnson: That property was sold by the Duke of Norfolk to Mr. Matthewman and the original proprietors of the Water Company, and it was in their possession in 1741. It was afterwards sold to Lawyer Hoyle, and then to its present occupier, Mr. Laycock. Pages 261-263. Everard: We must not pass without a mention the site of the beginning of Sheffield's Water Works, when springs were found to be no longer adequate. Although its history is so well known that we need not dwell on it, suffer me to remark that in its later days it was a square walled-in pool, and that it was allowed to remain until, instead of a benefit, it had become a stagnant nuisance. Leighton: The first house erected on its site was built in 1793, by Mrs. Hannah Potter, as a public-house, with the odd sign of "Well run Dimple"— an exclamation of commendation addressed to a horse that distinguished itself on Crookes Moor racecourse. Johnson: Forgive me for once more quoting James Wills, as he not only describes the old pool, but narrates an incident of some interest : — "The Barker's Pool, noted for nuisance indeed, Green over with venom, where insects did breed, And forming a square, with large gates in the wall, Where the Rev. Charles Wesley to sinners did call. Once when he was preaching, an officer bold March'd up through his audience, adorned with gold. Mr. Wesley perceived him with drawn sword in hand, And open'd his waistcoat as he saw him stand, Being fill'd by repentance by hearing the word. In those days persecution, that giant of hell, Stalk'd along in mad frolic; and, strange for to tell, Pursued the poor Christians, abused them sore, Resolv'd that those people should never preach more; But the Wesleys and Whitfields, being fraught with pure zeal, Not fearing their lives, for sinners did feel; And the Mulberry Street preaching house being too small, Wesley stood with his back against Barker's Pool wall." Leonard: Mr. Samuel Roberts gives a curious account of one of the uses to which Barker pool was put in his young days. "It was," he says, "well walled round. In the event of a fire (happily a very rare one) the water, on being let off, could be directed to most parts of the town. All the channels were then in the middle of the streets, which were generally in a very disorderly state; manure heaps often lying in them for a week together. About once every quarter the water was let out of Barker pool, to run into all those streets into which it could be turned, for the purpose of cleansing them. The bellman gave notice of the exact time, and the favoured streets were all bustle, with a row of men, women, and children on each side of the channel, anxiously and joyfully awaiting, with mops, brooms and pails, the arrival of the cleansing flood, whose first appearance was announced by a loud continuous shout: all below was anxious expectation — all above a most amusing scene of bustling animation. Some people were throwing the water up against their houses and windows; some raking the garbage into the kennel; some washing their pigs; some sweeping the pavement; youngsters throwing water over their companions or pushing them into the wide-spread torrent. Meanwhile a constant Babel-like uproar, mixed with the barking of dogs and the grunting of pigs was heard both above and below till the waters, after about half an hour, had become exhausted." Leighton: As connected with the supply of water you will also remember that Mr. Roberts speaks of the supply of water brought in pipes to a receptacle in Townhead Street, from which it was the business of a number of men to take it in casks, fixed on the body of a wheelbarrow, holding about fifty gallons, to all parts of the town to sell. "Water Isaac" was a well-known member of this band of barrel men. Mr. Roberts mentions too a large water reservoir belonging to Mr. Matthewman, over Mr. Winter's candlestick factory — subsequently Mr. Bardwell's auction room — for supplying the town with Crookes Moor water. Wragg: On the site of the houses where the Fire brigade now reside, in Balm Green, there used to be some very old houses, bearing the date of erection as in the seventeenth century. In 1671, there were the following public wells: Burnt tree well, Water Lane well, Workhouse well (the "pump," in Westbar, is no doubt its modern representative), Webster well, and Flint well. There were also the troughs in Water Lane. Leonard: We have come across other sources of water supply in the course of our rambles — Bower spring, and the spring in Bailey's yard, Broomhall spring, and the rest. It is not so very many years since some of these were still used. The Mercury, of January 27, 1827, records that "A cast iron pump has been recently placed at the bottom of Sheffield Moor, chiefly through the exertions of the Overseers of Ecclesall Bierlow. This pump will be a great accommodation to that part of the town, they having had to procure their supply of water from an open well, which was often subject to nuisance. A reservoir has been made connected with the pump, capable of containing about 10,000 gallons, which will afford a supply for the summer months. At the head of the subscription list we see the name of Earl Fitzwilliam for £20, and that of Rowland Hodgson, Esq., for £5."
  17. Hi does anyone have any information about a location known as Crooked Steps? It is shows as an ancestors address in the 1881 Census and listed as Harvest Lane. I've checked out Picture Sheffield but couldn't find any pics specifically listed as Crooked Steps. I know it was/is hilly around there so I'm guessing there literally were a set of crooked steps, it just seems odd to have as an address. Thanks in advance!
