    Wire Mill at Ringinglow

    Interestingly the Dyson brothers, Joseph and James crossed the paths of history in later life - in 1864 thanks to the Sheffield flood. The 2 brothers hailed from Thurgoland and in 1864 they were both employed at a wireworks on Bradfield Road, Hillsborough. Joseph (the manager there) and his family lived in Brick Row, Holme Lane where James lodged during the week while his family lived in Thurgoland. On the night of Friday March 10 / 11 the Dale Dike dam at Bradfield burst and the flood killed over 200 people in the Sheffield area. The flood destroyed Brick Row and Joseph and most of his family were killed - one child was away that night and survived - but James escaped by breaking through the roof and he escaped and was reunited with his own family a couple of days later - his wife had come by train to Sheffield to try and find him and he caught the train back home! My partner is James’s g-g-granddaughter and every time we go into the Norfolk Arms we think of him, his relatives and their experiences of that terrible night.

    Thank you very much Stenner, I don't know the area at all and other photographs aren't helping to confirm. Does anybody have any photographs of the shops on Bocking Lane? Or can see what it is over the doorway? I only have a mobile phone to work with.

    This looks very much like the S&E Coop that was in Greenhill village, top of Bocking Lane just before the roundabout - I used to live on Lowedges at that time and for a short time went to the school on the other section of the roundabout (the school on Lowedges Road hadn't been finished at the time - that must have been about 1954/5)

    The Price of Carrying the Coals

    Many local steelworks had their own barges. Tinsley Rolling Mills brought coal to the works on their own craft until , I believe, the 1920s. One was wrecked and it’s remains could be seen when the River Don was in low water. One of the companies long serving workman, Darkie Hercock ,was actually born on one of the Companies barges.

    The Price of Carrying the Coals

    It looks to me like something put out by the Canal companies about the impact of railways on their business. However, I would take the rail figures with a pinch of salt. As we know, the Railways slaughtered the canal traffic and the cost by rail and being cheaper was enough for them to get scared of this new method of transport. With something like that document, you have to take in the motives of who would pay for the expense of publishing it. The document does say "probable" costs. It might be something to do with the canal interests trying to stop Coal Companies actually backing or investing in future rail developments! Showing they wouldn't save much on the short distances and loose on the long ones. There was often some strong opposition to rail expansion.

    The Price of Carrying the Coals

    Not always. Many collieries had their own staithes, but then other collieries had rail loading facilities. Wagons are often shunted and spend time in sidings awaiting the next train, boats keep going. Large consumers or merchants may have a private basin, then again they may have a rail connection. You'd need to know the detailed provision for each trip to get an idea of speed. The document is dated 1800-1850, but the start date is way too early, the S&D opened in 1825 and the L&M five years later so what the earliest rail to Sheffield was I don't know. At that early date what speed did railways operate at? Finally, coal does not deteriorate in the timescales we are talking about so does speed matter at all? 30 miles is a day's canal journey, but then add lockage time, may be a couple of days.
