REMINISCENCES OF OLD SHEFFIELD CHAPTER I. PARADISE SQUARE, CAMPO LANE, HARTSHEAD, AND WATSON'S WALK. Mr. WILLIAM WRAGG, Ancient Citizen of Sheffield. Mr. GEORGE LEIGHTON, Ancient Citizen of Sheffield. Mr. SAMUEL EVERARD, Ancient Citizen of Sheffield. Mr. F. TWISS, The Antiquary Mr. RICHARD LEONARD, A Modern Citizen of Sheffield Period - 1872-3. Scene - A room in Leonard's house. LEIGHTON: So the old steps in Paradise square have gone at last. Have you secured the top stone for your collection, Mr. TWISS ? TWISS: No, it would have been rather too large ; but I wish it could be preserved somewhere ; otherwise, like so many other things that disappear, it will be consigned to oblivion. EVERARD : What eloquence has rung from that stone LEONARD: And what nonsense ! EVERARD : Brougham, Morpeth, Bethel, Milton, Elliott, Dunn, Roebuck, and Mundella have thence charmed thousands of eager listeners. LEONARD : And others have thence uttered rant enough to cause the very stones to cry out. LEIGHTON : There were few finer sights in Sheffield than a great meeting in " t' Pot square," when the people were really in earnest and the speaker a man of power. LEONARD : Tile finest sight of all was when Mr. Henry Hoole, flourishing his arms in a burst of exuberant eloquence, brought down his fist on Mr. Leader's hat and knocked it over his eyes. That was a notable time, too, when Roebuck, sitting in his carriage at the bottom of the steps, listened to Campbell Foster's fulminations against him. There has seldom been so much use made of a white waistcoat, and a loud voice. But this is not "Old Sheffield." WRAGG : The eloquence from the steps has often been exceeded by the wit from the crowd, which always displayed a keen sense of the humorous and a quick perception of humbug. LEONARD : Does anyone know when meetings were first held in the Square ? TWISS, : The first on record that I have found was in 1779, July 15, when Wesley preached " to the largest con gregation he ever saw on a week-day." Then, in 1798, Rowland Hill came down and preached there one Sunday evening, after an afternoon service in Queen Street Chapel. He had an immense congregation, and confusion was caused towards the end by some fellow drawing his 'sword upon the people. Before that, out-door meetings were held on the Castle hill, or at the Church gates before the old Town Hall; sometimes on Crookes moor, or pieces of waste land anywhere handy. LEONARD: Pray spare us the old story about somebody who knew somebody else who remembered the Square as it corn-field. WRAGG : Why should we? There are people still living, or were not long ago, who remembered it a field of oats, entered from the top by Hicks' stile. An elderly lady, who died not many years ago, had gone with the maid to milk her father's cows, which were pastured there. There seems always to have been a footpath across, which was, indeed, the only thoroughfare from that side of the town. Pedestrians going up Silver street head (busier then, I believe, than High street) had to cross to Wheat's passage by Mr. Ryalls' office, if they were going to the Market ; or if to the old Town Hall, they went over Hicks' stile, up St. James's row (or West row, or Virgin's row, for it has borne all three names)there were stops at the bottom the whole width of the row-and then across the Churchyard. EVERARD : The lamp in the centre of the Square has taken the place of the old cross shaft, removed there from Snig hill head ; but the steps up to it are, I should think Unchanged. The stocks were removed there from the Church WRAGG. : And drunken men were placed in them on Sundays for punishment. The practice had to be dropped because of the disturbances it caused. The last instance of a drunken man being placed in the stocks was forty-three or forty-four years ago. LEIGHTON: What became of the stocks in the Square? WRAGG: When they got out of order, the two pieces of wood that confined the delinquents' feet became loose, and the late Mr. W. H. Clayton, the broker under the steps in the Square, removed them into his back yard for safety. There they remained for years, and no one ever inquired for them. EVERARD: There were stocks also at Bridgehouses, opposite the end of the iron bridge; at Attercliffe; near Ecelesall Chapel; and near the old Sugar House, Sheffield moor. WRAGG: Paradise square was the residence of notable men. I believe it was the first suburban place to which tradesmen retired away from their works. LEONARD: Do you think so? There were surely suburban residences before that, and farther out than that. I have been told by a gentleman still living, whose father resided there when he was a boy, that the Square has scarcely changed at all in appearance since very early in the century. It was then built all round as it is now, and with the same buildings, except a few which have been modernised on the east side. WRAGG: Well, at any rate, many of the first families in the town lived there. LEONARD : Dr. Gatty, in a note at p. 177 of his Edition of Hunter, says that " Thomas Broadbent took a lease of the field in 1776, and built the houses on the east side." Now, I happen to know that the lease to Thomas Broadbent-so far at least as concerns the land at the top of that side of the Square-is dated 1736. He had five daughters, and he built the five houses at the top- afterwards Bramley and Gainsford's offices and the adjoining ones-for them. On his death, they came into their possession. The date 1776 must be a clerical or a printer's error. EVERARD : But that date suits better the corn-field recollections of the old inhabitants who have now passed away; unless, indeed, the Square remained a field after the houses on the cast side were built. And this is very possible. WRAGG : I have been told. by a man who was in the service of her father, whose business was in Hollis croft, that Miss Harrison was born in one of the houses at the top side of the Square. Then Chantrey set up here, in what was then No. 14, as an artist, and advertised that he took portraits in crayons. That was in 1802. Two years later he made a step nearer his proper vocation, for he had commenced taking models from life. EVERARD : It would be interesting to know if many of his crayon portraits are extant. LEONARD: Yes, numbers. You will find a long list of them in Mr. John Holland's Memorials of Chantrey. The whereabouts of most of them was known when that was published, in 1850. EVERARD : You may see in the Old Church his first piece of sculpture, the monument to Justice Wilkinson, which the Iris, shrewd enough to predict the future celebrity of "the young artist," praised as a " faithful and affecting resemblance." The bust of Dr. Browne, in the board-room of the Infirmary, is also by Chantrey, executed in 1810-four years after the Wilkinson monument. LEIGHTON : Another worthy who lived in the Square up to the time of his death, in 1817, was the " Rev. George Smith, curate of Ecelesall, and assistant-minister at the Parish Church-the father of Mr. Albert Smith. He lived near the bottom on the east side. LEOONARD : I see a window has been inserted in place of the old door at the top of the steps, but the pillasters remain to show where the door entered Mr. Hebblethwaite's school. WRAGG: That room was originally built as a Freemasons' lodge. It was afterwards put to various uses---a dancing school and a preaching-room. I remember hearing the notorious Robert Owen lecture there. At one time a considerable congregation of Independents assembled there, under the ministry of the Rev. Mr. Parish. They contemplated building a chapel, but they let the opportunity slip, and much they regretted it afterwards. The last three survivors of that congregation were Mr. Spear, of the firm of Spear and Jackson; Mr. Peter Spurr, tobacconist, father of Mr. Spurr, chemist and druggist; and the late Mr. Joseph Brittlebank, scale-cutter. The leases have now fallen in, or are falling in, so that possibly it may not remain long in its old state. TWISS : Yes; the lease of part fell in two years ago (not of the other part, for it is built on two leases), and that shows that it is just over a century old, as the lease would no doubt be a ninety-nine years' one. The room was built by Mr. Nowill, who had a shop in High street, opposite George street. EVERARD : The pot market that was held in the Square on market days has. quite disappeared, or is only represented by the crockery shops on the north side. TWISS : There was a sort of pet market formerly by the Church gates. WRAGG: The Square has been the scene of degrading transactions, as well as of honourable ones. Some brute once, for a wager, ate a live cat on the steps. I knew a person who bought his wife in the Square, whither she had been led in a halter. LEIGHTON : " Q in the Corner " was an old public-house much frequented by fiddlers, since it was kept by Sam Goodlad, first fiddler on all important occasions. WRAGG : The blind fiddlers were quite an institution. At one time there were six of them, several of whom were excellent performers on the violin. Their names were James Knight, Samuel Hawke, Thomas Booth, Alexander Clayton (brother of the late W. H. Clayton, broker), William Brumby, and Joseph Ward. They had their circuits, chiefly on the outskirts of the town, to which they went in pairs, playing firsts and seconds, and they kept to their own districts. At Christmas they went round " a Christmas-boxing," dropping into' public-houses, and being liberally rewarded for the tunes they played. LEONARD: There is a good story of a blind fiddler in John Wilson's edition of Mather's Songs, p. 55. This was Blind Stephen," who was, I imagine, of earlier date than those you have mentioned. EVERARD : The house at the top corner of Paradise square and Campo lane, now a dram-shop, was, sixty years ago, a respectable grocer's shop, kept by Mr. Newton (who was sueceeded by Mr. Benjamin Ellis), and at that time was much celebrated amongst the grinders, both in town and country, for the quality of the articles of emery, crocus, and glue. WRAGG: Yes., that shop had almost the monopoly of the trade. TWISS : More recently the shop was occupied by Mr. Crossland, noted for his regular and punctual attendance to it the whole day long. His only recreation was it walk up Glossop road after his shop was closed at night. EVERARD: Then came, as now, the barber's shop, at that time occupied by the father and predecessor of the Mr. Copley who was recently burnt to death in a shocking manner by an explosion of gunpowder. The " Ball " Inn, next door, then the " Golden Ball," was kept in my youthful days by Antipas Stevens, a very intelligent and respectable man, who kept his house in proper order. I believe he took to it at the time Mr. Crich removed to the " Black Swan," Snighill. Mr. Stevens was by trade a silversmith; and I have an impression that he had been apprenticed to Ashforth, Ellis, and Co., or, at least, had worked for them. The Braziers' Sick Club met at his house, and the inn was, moreover, at that time, much frequented by country people on the market days, and more especially by the grinders from the neighbourhoods of Wadsley, Loxley, and Rivelin. After refreshing themselves there with the good " home-brewed," they would call at the adjoining shop of Mr. Ellis for their weekly supply of emery, and crocus, and groceries. In the watchmaker's shop a little further on, long occupied by Mr. David Johnson, and now by his son, was Mr. Zaccheus Dyson, whose active figure, dressed in a brown coat, drab small clothes, and broadbrimmed hat - for he belonged to the Society of Friends -still lives in the respectful remembrance of many of our townsmen. Mr. Dyson, it is related, once received a letter from a Quaker correspondent addressed " For Zaccheus Dyson, clock and watchmaker, Sheffield, near to a great heap of stones called a church." TWISS: Mr. Dyson retired to Handsworth Woodhouse, and died there 4th June, 1861. WRAGG: Narrow as Campo lane is, it was once still narrower, a slice having been taken from the Churchyard to widen it. LEONARD: On the site of the offices of Burbeary and Smith, at the corner of North Church street, a worthy lady named Ward kept a school. She was much respected by her pupils and her friends, and she now enjoys a quiet old age in the Shrewsbury Hospital. [Mrs. Ward died after this conversation took place, on the 31st December, 1872, aged 86. It is recorded that she enjoyed almost uninterrupted good health up to the hour of her death.] EVERARD: The first shop past that was long occupied by the late Mr. John Innocent, bookseller. Before that it had been the lawyer's office of Mr. Brookfield, uncle of the late Mr. Charles Brookfield; and in 1839 Mr. Innocent there found the legal documents which were issued for the first prosecuon of Montgomery in 1795. Mr. Innocent placed in Montgomeryg hands the papers he found, and from them he first learnt, and possessed certain proof, that he had been the victim of a state Prosecution. These documents stated, amongst other things, that " briefs were to be given to Counsel with the Attorney. General's compliments;" and that this prosecution is carried on chiefly with a view to Put a stop to the associated clubs in Sheffield; and it is to be hoped, if we are fortunate enough to succeed in convicting the prisoner, it will go a great way towards curbing the insolence they have uniformly manifested." The papers, which were shown at an exhibition at the Music Hall, in 1848, were given to Mr. Innocent by Mrs. Brookfield, and he gave them to Montgomery, refusing all payment, although the poet offered any money for them. LEONARD : I have heard that a third and still more bitter prosecution of Mr.Montgomery was threatened. EVERARD: This was in 1806. Montgomery actually received the legal notices for a prosecution, based on his strictures on the campaign in Germany, when General Mack and 39,000 Austrians laid down their arms. He himself said, I never knew how the blow missed me, for it was aimed with a cordiality that meant no repetition of the stroke. The death of Nelson probably saved me, for in the next Iris I spoke of that event in a strain of such Patriotism that my former disloyalty was perhaps overlooked." TWISS : A fortunate escape. EVERARD: A few doors further on the lane were the Scantleburys, worthy Quakers, who dealt in looking-glasses. There was old Thomas Scantlebury, of The Hills; and he had three sons, John Barlow Scantlebury, Joseph Scantlebury, and Samuel Scantlebury. Thomas Scantlebury and his eldest son, John Barlow, were very prominent oponents of church rates. Meetings used to be held in the Churchyard adjoining, and the speakers stood on the tombstones. Some of the family emigrated to America. LEONARD: Yes; the two younger sons, Joseph and Samuel. The latter is still living in Chicao and retains his connection with the Society of Friends; as I see from a letter to the Independent respecting the opposition to the church rates. " Thomas Scantlebury,"' he says " was the adviser, chiefly; while his son, John Barlow Scantlebury, took the more prominent part. I well remember that, on one occasion, the opponents of the church rates would have fatally committed themselves but for my father. The momentous question had been put and seconded in his absence, but the people refused to vote on it until they had heard his views. When he came in, he very briefly stated his opposition to the motion, showing that it would form a very dangerous precedent. The motion was then withdrawn. The people said that the Vicar' and his set could get on the blind side of everybody but old Thomas Scantlebury. I remember old Thomas Rawson was at that meeting, as active as ever. I believe I never saw him afterwards." TWISS : Mr. Thomas Scantlebury died at " The Hills," on the Grimesthorpe road, August 14, 1821 ; his son, John Barlow Scantlebury, died April 28, 1837. Old Mrs. Scantlebury was the daughter of John Barlow, the last of the family that had carried on the old business of manufacturers of pen and pocket cutlery on the premises in Campo lane, just beyond Mr. Scantlebury's, the east front of which looks down the Hartshead. They had been there as owners and occupiers of the property ever since the year 1679, "and I cannot tell how long previous," says Mr. Samuel Scantlebury in the letter Mr. Leonard has just quoted. It was Obadiah Barlow, the great-great-grandfather of Samuel Scantlebury, who had the premises in 1679. Whether the Barlow of Neepsend, who died in 1740, was of the same family or not is doubtful. John Barlow died in 1798, and one of the best businesses in Sheffield died with him. The trade mark was the simple name LEONARD: I have spoken of old Mrs. Ward. Before her time there was another lady of the same name, some six or eight doors from the Barlow property. She had been housekeeper to the John Barlow who has been mentioned, and he set her up in the grocery business. Her shop looked more like a greenhouse than a grocer's shop. She always had her window and every bit of spare room filled with some beautiful flower or plant. Mr. Samuel Scantlebury writes, " If I remember right she had a geranium that used nearly to fill her front windows. It was there I first saw the hydrangea. There cannot be many who remember her; she must have been dead more than 65 years. The dear old woman remembered me in her will. She left me a guinea for pocket-money!" WRAGG: Well, this brings us in our journey along the lane to the Hartshead, and to the Broadbents' house fronting York street, a few years ago occupied by Messrs. Pye-Smith and Wightman, and now by Messrs. J. and G. Webster. EVERARD : Before you tell us the history of that house, let me just say that in the workshops at the back of Mr. Scantlebury's premises yet another member of the Society of Friends, Mr. William Chapman, carried on for many years the business of an engraver. TWISS : I well remember his burial (one of the last interments in the graveyard of the Friends' Meeting-house), and the solitary sentence uttered by Friend E. Baines-" After death the judgment." EVERARD: He was a very amiable and intelligent man, highly esteemed in his denomination, and at one time he was actively engaged in promoting the welfare of its members by visiting the country districts. His grave and Christian deportment, combined with his kindly disposition and courteous manners, secured the confidence and respect of those who had any intercourse with him. TWISS: We shall still keep among the Friends, for Joseph Broadbent, who died in 1684, was one of the first generation of the Society in the town. I believe it was his son Nicholas who built the house in the Hartshead. He died in 1736, and was father of Joseph Broadbent, merchant, said to have been the first banker in Sheffield, who died in 1761. LEONARD : Is it worth while to go into matters that may be found by any of us in Gatty's " Hunter ?" TWISS: No; but the point I want to get at is, were the Broadbents the first bankers in the town ? I have been told that the first person who practised this profession in Sheffield was one of the fraternity of pawnbrokers. In the--Hallamshire," it is said, "In 1778, Messrs. J. and T. Broadbent opened a bank in Hartshead, on the failure of Mr. Roebuck's bank, which was the first known in Sheffield, and only lasted eight years ; and in 1780 the Broadbents failed." LEONARD: If Joseph Broadbent died in 1761, how could he be a banker in 1778 ? Your information and Hunter's do not seem to agree. TWISS: They were the sons of Joseph-Joseph and Thomas, who wore the bankers of 1778; but had their father been a banker before them ? I saw the other day an early Sheffield bank note, of which I took a copy: No. R t 0 6 Sheffield 0ld Bank, January 22 ,1783. We promise to pay the bearer on demand Fire Guineas. At Sheffield, value received. HAN, HASELHURST and SON. £5. 5s. R t 0 6 Haslehurst and Son, it seems, became unfortunate; for the note was endorsed with an exhibit under a commission in bankruptcy, 23rd June, 1785. But in the fact that it is called the Sheffield Old Bank, I am led to inquire : Did the bank, afterwards carried on by Messrs. Parker, Shore and Co., arise from the ashes of this one, for it bore the same name ? WRAGG : Whether Mr. Joseph Broadbent was the first banker or not, he was, at any rate, the first merchant who traded with America. There is a good story told of one of the Broadbents, at the time of the suspension of the bank. That suspension took place on a Monday morning. On the preceding Sunday, some Derbyshire man came knocking at the bank door. A voice from within asked what he wanted. The countryman replied, " I have come to the bank." " We do not transact business on Sundays," was the answer. Then the countryman said, " I have not come for money, but I have brought some." The other replied, " That is quite a different thing." So the door was opened, and the Derbyshire man left his money. LEONARD : That would be called by a hard name now-a-days. WRAGG : The Messrs. Binney were afterwards in the Hartshead premises. TWISS: Yes, but the first successor of the Broadbents was Mr. John Turner, a merchant, who died in 1796. He was uncle to Henry Longden and to Mrs. Binney; and thus we see how the premises came into the occupation of the Binneys. WRAGG: I have been told that the Binneys had at one time the best country trade in the town as merchants, and the largest steel furnaces (they have just been pulled down, and the bricks are in heaps in the yard). I believe they were the first steel manufacturers who had a tilt. One of their best travellers was the father of Mr. Joseph Haywood. I had the impression that the father of the late Mr. G. W. Hinchliffe, of Eyre street, was also a traveller for the Binneys, but that, I find, was a mistake. LEONARD : So long ago as 1825, the building had been turned into lawyers' offices. In that year it was occupied by Mr. Copeland, solicitor. WRAGG: While we are among the Friends, and so near their Meeting-house, permit me to say, one of them told me that, in his recollection, he can count more than a score who have left Sheffield and gone to America and become ministers, who, had they remained in the town, would never have been able to open their mouths. LEONARD : I thought there were no ministers among the Quakers. LEIGHTON: You must forgive the abrupt transition when I say-Now, hail to thee, old " Dove and Rainbow!' Sixty years ago, the drum and fife were scarcely ever absent from thy door, when Sergeant Kenyon and Sergeant Barber were on the look-out for recruits. Well do I remember seeing one of them come forth with his corporal, two or three rank and file, with drum and fife, and march boldly to Water lane, and there draw up his detachment in line. Then did the sergeant, with streamers flying in the air, sheathe his sword, and he and his men marched boldly into the publichouse, and, like a gallant warrior as he was, called for his "tankard " of foaming ale. The sergeant had ready for each recruit a spade-ace guinea, with his Majesty's portrait impressed upon it, pigtail and all. The warlike song was Roll up, so merrily, march away; Soldier's glory lives in story : His laurels are green when his locks are grey, And it's heigh for the life of a soldier. In my youth, I and others of my own age were in the habit of singing songs about " Lord Wellington in Spain," and Campo lane sent out its quota both for the navy and the army. I could mention names, were it necessary-John Dawson, himself the son of a soldier who died fighting in India, and Artilleryman Dixon, and others. WRAGG : I have heard very old people say that the Dove and Rainbow was once on fire. The landlady had made her escape from the flames, but she turned back to rescue a considerable sum of money, and perished. TWISS: That, I imagine, would be in 1782. The landlord's name was Thomas Oates, and a servant girl perished as well as his wife. WRAGG: The old Iris office was at one time the largest shop in the town, and had the two largest windows-rounded so as to form the are of a circle, like a few that are still to be seen, with small panes, unsupplanted as yet by big squares of plate glass. EVERARD : Montgomery's last apprentice, Mr. Robert Leader, has spoken feelingly of the shutters which he had to put up and take down. They were " very many, very heavy, and had to be carried a considerable distance. Whenwork in the office closed, at 6.30 or 7 p.m., the unfortunate apprentice had to return to the place at 8 or 9, to put up the shutters." TWISS: Apprentices in newspaper offices have not to submit to such tasks now. WRAGG: Before Mr. Gales's time this house was the residence of Dr. Buchan, who wrote there his celebrated work, Domestic Medicine. At one time the book was in the hands of almost every one on both sides of the Atlantic, wherever the English language is spoken. TWISS: Another of Montgomery's apprentices, years earlier, was the eldest son of the Rev. George Smith. He was named Matthewman, after his maternal grandfather, and he became a partner of Montgomery's. He afterwards entered the East India Company's army and died in India. LEONARD : I have heard Mr. Montgomery's sanctum described as an upper room behind the shop, over the office coal-place. It had a most depressing out-look upon back premises and dingy walls and roofs. The editor poet had a standing office-desk in the room, but his favourite writing place was a round table which stood near the fire. At the time my informant best remembers the room, Montgomery was compiling his collection of hymns, and the table was covered with the books that he used in his work. LEIGHTON : It has often been told how the poet sometimes served customers, but it was simply an accidental or exceptional thing. My feeling towards him when I was sent to make a purchase was one of fear-he was so curt. Then, of course, I was only young-, and so great a man could not be expected to be civil to a boy ! LEONARD: Numbers of incidents connected with Montgomery's life might be mentioned, but most of them would be such as have already been published ; and I take it the great object of our conversations is to gather together unwritten folk-lore. WRAGG : I suppose there's no great harm if one does tell a story twice over ? EVERARD : At any rate, the subsequent history of the Gales family, which is second only in interest to that of Montgomery himself, has not often been told, and I should suggest that Mr. Leonard read it to us. LEONARD: I've no objection whatever. This is it "When Mr. Joseph Gales, printer, bookseller, auctioneer, and editor of the then popular Sheffield Register, left the town in 1794, he went, as you all know, to America. The fact is, Mr. Gales had to flee. A meeting held on Castle hill in April of that year had passed strong resolutions and spoken fierce words against the Government, which led to a prosecution. Mr. Gales was present at that meeting, and appears to have sympathised with its objects, but he was not included in the prosecution. In June, a letter from a Sheffield printer to Hardy, the secretary of the London Corresponding Society, was seized, and Gales was suspected, though unjustly, of being the writer. A warrant was issued against him, and he only escaped arrest from the officers sent to execute it by a prompt flight. In the following week's Register Mr. Gales took a formal leave of his friends and readers, denying most distinctly that he had written, dictated, or been privy to the letter addressed to Hardy. If his imprisonment, or death, would serve the cause which he had espoused-the cause of peace, liberty, and justice, it would, he said, be cowardice to fly; 'but, convinced that by ruining my family and distressing my friends by risking either would only gratify the ignorant and the malignant, I shall seek that livelihood in another land which I cannot peaceably obtain in this.' Under such circumstances and with such feelings, Joseph Gales, after sundry concealments, got out of the country. After a short stay in Germany, he went to America and began life afresh. He was a clever, forcible writer and a keen politician, and his proclivities speedily drew him to his old profession. Arrived at Philadelphia, in August, 1795, he began business as a printer there. In about a year, judging from the numbering of one of his papers which is in our possession, dated June, 1797, he became the proprietor, by purchase from Mr. Oswald, of the Independent Gazetteer of that city. He called it ' Gales's Independent Gazetteer;' but he did not keep it long, re-selling it at the end of the first year to Mr. S. H. Smith, of whom we shall hear again. In September, 1799, Mr. Gales went to North Carolina, and there he established the Raleigh Register, which he published for forty years, only retiring from the concern a year or two before his death which took place at Raleigh, on the 24th August, 1841, at the advanced age of eighty years. His youngest son, who was born in North Carolina, succeeded to the newspaper. When Mr. Gales arrived in America he had with him a son, also named Joseph Gales, then about nine years of age. This Joseph Gales, Junior, kept in the journalistic track. In 1806 he joined, as a reporter, the National Intelligencer a paper that had been established in Washington, in 1800, by the Samuel H. Smith previously mentioned, with the object of maintaining a newspaper in the capital, Republican in politics, which should yield to the Administration a vigorous support. In 1809 Gales was made a partner, and in 1810 he became sole proprietor of this journal. It lived until the year 1869, when the New York Evening Post, noticing its death, said:-'Mr. William W. Seaton, a brother-in-law of Mr. Gales, and previously editor of the Petersburg Republican and North Carolina Register, became associated with him in the enterprise in 1812. The Intelligencer was a vigorous supporter of the war with Great Britain, and enjoyed a high reputation as a public journal. Messrs. Gales and Seaton used to do their own reporting of debates in Congress, one always sitting in the Senate and the other in the House of Representatives, during the sessions. Their Register of Debates is regarded as a standard source of American history. The tone of the paper under their management was firm, moderate, and cautious. With a rearrangement of parties, the National Intelligencer adhered to Mr. Clay, and was a Conservative-Whig journal so long as the Whig party had an existence. The proprietors stood high in public confidence, and in 1840 Mr. Seaton was elected mayor of Washington, and held the office for twelve consecutive years. Mr. Gales died in 1860. The style of the Intelligencer's editorial management deserves a mention. There used to be often a sparseness of leading articles, succeeded at intervals by the production of a paper covering a page or more, always written with force and ability, but at the same time rather too solid for the general reader.' Into the cause of the death of the Intelligence). we need not here inquire. It was prosperous under the son of our old townsman, Mr. Gales, who, in the free atmosphere of the New World, followed out the career his father had begun here. After he ceased his labours and went to his rest, the paper grew more and more out of harmony with the spirit of the times, and paid the penalty that all newspapers so managed must pay-death. In the autumn of 1868 an old contributor to the Intelligencer visited Sheffield, and being curious-as so many Americans are-to see the place from which his former employer went forth, visited the antique shop in the Hartshead where Gales commenced and Montgomery continued the then dangerous trade of editor and publisher. The poetic nine have long deserted the narrow alley. Where flowers of Parnassus once bloomed, the votaries of Bacchus then. revelled. In short, the building had been turned into a beershop. Joiners were removing the quaintly-carved door-case with the ancient fan-light, to replace them with some more convenient structure in plain and vulgar deal. The stranger was horrified at the desecration, and, inquiring, found that the old wood was being removed, with some lumber, for lighting fires. His plea. for mercy was admitted ; triumphant, he carried off the old door-case, and out of it had constructed a number of boxes, one of which is placed in the National Museum at Washington, suitably inscribed, and bearing a photograph of the premises rendered sacred by the memory of Gales and Montgomery." TWISS : It should be added that Montgomery's Hartshead shop is, at the present time, not a beershop, but a grocer's. The Gales family lived at Eckington for many years ; the first of the name of whom there is record, Timothy, was appointed parish clerk in 1707. His son Timothy married Sarah Clay, of Eckington, in 1735, and their eldest son, Thomas, was the father of Joseph Gales, of the Hartshead, the proprietor of the Sheffield Register. He was born February 4, 1761. I have here a copy of the inscription on the tombstone of the family in Eckington churchyard : Under this Stone Lie the Remains of three Daughters of THOMAS and SARAH GALES, Of Eckington, and sisters of JOSEPH GALES, who died at Raleigh, North Carolina, U.S., August 24, 1841, aged 80 years. ELIZABETH GALES, Departed this life, February 16, 1821, Aged 49 years. Farewell, beloved, we meet again. ANNE GALES, Died January 17, 1838, aged 70 years. Jesus saith unto her, I am the Resurrection and the Life." SARAH GALES, Died February 18, 1857, aged 84 years. With these sisters, together andseverally, lived for more than sixty years (dying in the presence of the last-named, at Sheffield, April 30,1854), JAMES MONTGOMERY, The Christian Poet, Patriot, and Philanthropist. Requiescat in pace. WRAGG: It was in the Hartshead and Watson's walk (so called from Messrs. Watson's silversmiths' factory) that the first eating-houses were established; now there is not one left. LEONARD: Yes, I understand the name of the proprietor of one of the cook-shops there was Thornhill. He lived at a house down Harvest lane, popularly called " T' hen hole,"because there was a tradition that poultry feloniously obtained was pushed through a hole into his cellar at night. LEIGHTON : A little below, too, in Hartshead, Matthias D'Amour kept a " cook-shop "-the first, I believe, in the town. LEONARD : D'Amour's " Autobiography " was written for him by the late Mr. Paul Rodgers, if you will excuse the bull, which is not mine, but theirs. It is an interesting story of his adventures as a kind of confidential servant to various gentlemen, and as valet to the Duchess of Gordon ; but the strangest part of all is that he should settle down at last in the Hartshead, in Sheffield, as the keeper of " an eatinghouse and poulterer's shop." LEIGHTON : That is accounted for by his wife, who had also been in the service of the Duchess of Gordon, having connections in the neighbourhood. LEONARD: In the course of the book we are not once told what was her maiden name, but her mother lived at Wood hall, some eleven miles from Sheffield, and she had a brother in Cheney row, whose name also is omitted. At first, D'Amour set up a canal boat, and conveyed coal from Whittington and Norwood collieries to Retford; but jealousies arising, he sold his boat. He came, to Sheffield on the very last day of the eighteenth century, began his. eating-house at 4, Market street, did well there, and in four Years removed to the Hartshead, where- he remained until 1826, when, "trade being much depressed after the panic of 1825, he and his wife willingly retired front all kind of lit point of fact, they seem to have lost their money. D'Amour was a native of Antwerp, and was eighty-six years of age when his life was published. He lived to the great age of ninety three, not dying until 1842. LEIGHTON : ln the Hartshead, some sixty years ago, the late Mr. Thomas Pearson carried on business as a wine merchant, and there realised a large fortune. WRAGG : It is said that on his late premises there are two cellars cut out of the solid rock, one, underneath the other. They are now occupied by Messr,.J. S. and T. Birks, grocers and wine dealers. LEIGHTON : Then there was " 'T" oil i' Wall " (The Hole in the Wall) ; and the house now occupied by 'Mr. Alleroft, with entrances both front Hartshead and Watson's walk, was kept by Mr. Sam Turner-" Gin Sam," as he was called, to distinguish him from " Flannel Sam" the draper. " Gin Sam" was the most gentlemanly landlord I ever met with, both in manner and conduct. He was particularly good-looking, had it pleasant smile and a kind word for all about him, and took a pride in waiting upon his customers himself TWISS: And his customers included the most respectable business men in the town. There was more sociableness among the shopkeepers at that time than now, and the public houses were so kept that orderly folk could go to them, without injury to themselves or to their reputation. WRAGG: The doorway of Sam Turner's public-house used to be almost blocked up on a Saturday night by men crowding to get in and by others trying to get out. Turner had formerly been a carpet weaver, and had worked for Mr. Wildsmith, of the Crofts. He got, however, by an accident, his arm broken, and during the period of enforced idleness which followed, he married a widow woman, whose name I forget, but who kept a public-house that was taken down to build the Town Hall. That would be about 1805. LEIGHTON : Lower still in Watson's walk was Mrs. Keats's eating-house, once well known. On. the opposite side, the premises now swallowed up by Messrs. Cockayne's carpet warehouse were occupied (though somewhat later than the time we have been speaking of) by a coffee-shop on the ground floor, the Mechanics' Library and a billiard-room up-stairs. In the corner 'now engulphed in Messrs. Cockayne's shop were the offices to which Mr. B. J. Wake-a most honourable man, of whom I always think with respect and gratituderemoved from Norfolk street about the year 1816 or 1817. What is now the Waterloo Tavern was originally the manufactory of Messrs. Watson. They were, I believe, silversmiths before plating on copper was invented. and the premises now occupied by Messrs. Birks and Mr. Atkinson formed their frontage. TWISS : It was, if I am not mistaken, in one of the houses you have named that the amusing interview of Justice Wilkinson with the pugilists took place. LEONARD: What Was that? TWISS : Oh, you must know the story. The old Vicar was noted in his time as an amateur pugilist; and one day, when he was dining with some local officials at the house that is now the Turf Tavern, two strangers called and sent in an urgent request that he would see them. The Vicar, quietly leaving his companions, complied. What was it they wanted? With some apologies they told him how great a distance they had come in consequence of having heard of his fondness for boxing, and buoyed by the fond hope that he would not disdain, as a particular favour, to give them a display of his skill. Nothing could please the old Justice better. With great urbanity he at once assented, the gloves were procured, and were used with a " science " that convinced the visitors they had not taken their journey fruitlessly; and in the end they left well pleased with the success of their mission. EVERARD : A good story, which I will cap with another, also appropriate to the locality, and also with a clerical flavour. About the middle of the last century there lived at Malin Bridge a working man, in humble circumstances, but who bore a good character amongst his neighbours for integrity and moral worth, and who was, moreover, a strict Churchman. He had a son named William, who had attained to an age suitable to receive the rite of confirmation, according to the ritual of the Church of England, and his father became very solicitous that this matter should be attended to without any unnecessary delay. On a certain day the Archbishop of York held a Confirmation service in the Parish Church, and this worthy man accompanied his son to Sheffield for the purpose of attending it. From some misunderstanding *as to the time, it so happened that on their arrival at the Old Church, the Confirmation service was over, and the Archbishop, clergy, and congregation were dispersed. What was to be (lone ? A man of ordinary character would just have returned home. But, instead of doing so, he ascertained that the Archbishop had gone down to the house Mr. Leighton has spoken of, in Watson's walk, and thither the father and son followed him. The servants refused them access to the Archbishop, as he was just sitting down to. dinner; but, happening to overhear the altercation, his lordship came to the top of the stairs and asked what was the matter. The father explained the circumstances, and the Archbishop, after asking some questions, and hearing young William. repeat the Lord's Prayer and the Creed, confirmed him on the stairhead of the public-house! The father and the boy, we may well suppose, trudged home highly gratified with the enjoyment of so special a privilege. The son was afterwards the grandfather of a highly esteemed magistrate recently deceased. LEONARD : I do not see why you should hesitate to add that the boy so confirmed was the grandfather of the late Mr. Thomas Dunn. He who had shown so much determina ion to get the rite administered to his son was the first of the Dunns-the first also of the Thomas Dunns-resident in this neighbourhood. He had come from Boston about the year 1780, to be apprenticed to an ancestor of the late Col. Fenton. His Malin Bridge house was a neat, substantial cottage, with a pointed gable, covered with a fruit-tree. It was swept away, along with adjacent buildings, by the great flood of 1864. The son, William Dunn, the hero of the confirmation story, was, as that sufficiently shows, brought up a Churchman ; but, as he subsequently married a strict Dissenter, his son Thomas, father of the late Mr. Dunn, was educated as a holder of Nonconformist tenets, and, with his family, he attended Queen Street Chapel for many years. He was a self-taught man, of much natural ability, and his tastes are indicated by the fact that he was the first person who lectured in Sheffield on electricity. His wife was a Holland, the daughter of a resident at Shiregreen. She was eight months old in 1745, when the Young Pretender and his followers wore marching south; and, as it was confidently affirmed and implicitly believed that the rebels would impale every baby on their swords, she was hidden in a holly bush. The rebels are said to have been within a mile of her father's house at that time, and every man in the hamlet had gone out to fight. LEIGHTON : The fighting may be problematical. LEONARD : Yes; it is possible that curiosity, rather than valour, had taken the men away, for we know, as a matter of history, what an unopposed march the rebels had. This story, however, reminds one of the tradition that, on his return northwards, Prince Charles Edward visited Sheffield, and was a guest of the Heatons, in the Pickle. I went into that question once (as Mr. Brooke, in " Middlemarch, " would say), and I came to the conclusion that the evidence in support of the story was very feeble. lt consisted chiefly of dim remembrances of mysterious transactions, handed down by old Mrs. Heaton, who was a little girl in 1745, to her descendants, and the cherished belief of the family that a harpsichord, a sword, a wine-glass, and other articles were presents from the Prince. On the other hand, the known facts of the Young Pretender's progress and retreat lend no countenance whatever to the legend. EVERARD: Mr. Leighton has mentioned the Mechanics' Library, and I think perhaps you may be interested in hearing some account of an institution very popular and useful in its day, that has been drawn up by one who was intimately associated with its management. Do you care to hear it? ALL: Much. EVERARD (roads) Half a century has nearly elapsed since the Mechanics' Library was first established, by resolutions passed at a public meeting, held in the Town Hall, on December 27th, 1823. Most of the individuals who took a prominent part in that meeting have passed away, including Montgomery, the Rev. Dr. Sutton, Sir Arnold Knight, Mr. Edward Smith, Mr. Asline Ward, the Rev. Thos. Smith, and others. " From a small beginning the institution went steadily forward, advancing year by year in public esteem, and strictly adhering to its original intention of the purchase and circulation of books, without allowing its funds to to diverted to any other object. In the course of thirty years it had accumulated 8,000 volumes, enrolled six hundred members, and had a weekly issue of six hundred books. Of the general charactor of these works Mr. Montgomery, who was from the first the president, on a certain occasion bore this testimony:' I offer it as my deliberate opinion that there does not exist in this kingdom a public library of miscellaneous literature in which will be found a smaller proportion of objectionable volumes than in this of the Sheffield Mechanics. Without meaning the smallest disparagement to what is called the Gentlemen's Library here, the proportion of books not calculated to be particularly profitable to the reader, or permanently enhancing the value of the property itself, is far greater ;' and which difference he attributed to the large admission of novels, romances, and plays. " By a certain clause in the 24th rule of the Mechanics' Library, 'novels and plays' were excluded. After things had gone on quietly for some years, at length the abrogation of this law became the subject of animated and even stormy debates at the annual meetings. On the one side the ' Repealers' asserted that to exclude so large a portion of the current and popular literature of the day was inconsistent with the library being regarded as a public institution, and also with the fact of the actual admission of works of ' fiction ' at all; and that it was unfair towards those members who possessed the taste for that kind of reading, and was opposed to the entire spirit, freedom, and liberality of the age. To all this, on the other hand, the ' Constitutionalists' stoutly maintained that the clause in question was a fundamental principle of the institution, and could not be repealed without a broach of faith with the original donors of money and books, which had been solicited and given on that express under. standing; that to make the change required would be to alter the entire character of the library, and to lessen it in public esteem and confidence; that the funds were much more wisely and profitably expended in solid standard works, which would tend to improve the intellectual and moral character much more effectually than the reading such ephemeral productions as 'novels;' and that, whatever the library might happen to lose in subscriptions by adhering to the rule, it would be likely to lose much more by cancelling it. " So the controversy went on at the annual meetings with more or less of acrimony, common sense, wit, and logic on both sides; but, on the whole, it was carried on in the spirit of fairness. This yearly breeze did the institution no harm, but rather good. It tended to purify the atmosphere and invigorate the life, and was not the occasion of anything worse than a very slight and temporary interruption of the general good feeling prevalent amongst the members. " In 1853 a soiree was held in the Cutlers' Hall, on which occasion the Mayor, Francis Hoole, Esq., was in the chair, and the late Earl Fitzwilliam was present and made an excellent speech. The object in view in holding this meeting was of a strictly practical nature, namely, that of placing more prominently before the public the claims and privileges of the institution. One thing that especially commended it to favour was that it was not sectarian either in religion or politics. Its members consisted of every class of religion and all shades of politics. " The Mechanics' Library thus went on year by year in its unostentatious course of practical usefulness, furnishing the means of self-improvement and intellectual gratification to hundreds who, without such provision, would not have entered on the course of life with the same advantages, and many of whom now, in middle life or advanced in years, look back upon the institution with no ordinary feelings of kindly regard and thankfulness. "The Mechanics' Library had been established about seven years when Mr. Hebblethwaite was appointed secretary, which office he sustained, with only a brief interruption, for nearly thirty years. He had been a member from its comenencement, and, in a speech delivered on the occasion of the presentation of a testimonial at the close of his services, he remarked:-' I was present at the origin of this library, at a meeting in the old Town Hall, on Saturday morning in Christmas week. It was an inauspicious time, but yet the room was crowded to excess. I have now before me the names of those who addressed the meeting. I was then a stripling, but I was intensely interested in the proceedings. I stood for three hours-for I could not get a seat-to hear the addresses, and none made a greater impression upon me than a speech of the late Rev. T. Smith, who was then at his best. It had a great influence on me at the time. He beautifully depicted the benefits such an institution might confer on the working men of Sheffield, and he mentioned the case of a working man of his acquaintance who, though spending forty years of his life in a cotton manufactory, had mastered Latin, Greek, and Hebrew, was well versed in mathematics, and had considerable knowledge of medicine. This man had had a wife and seven children to maintain by his own labour, but no family in the town was more respectable, no children were better fed, clothed, and educated, and several of them were reading Latin, Greek, and Hebrew with their father. This account of what a working man had done stimulated me to desire to do likewise, and renewed my ardour in the studies in which I was engaged. Thus the institution has imparted a bias to my life and character, and no doubt it has done the same thing for many others. It was no slight *privilege as secretary of this institution to enjoy intercourse with its late president, Mr. Montgomery. I frequently saw him, and received from him such kindness as was most important to a young man in the position I was called to. The benefits that have resulted from this library, directly and indirectly, have been great. It has been the pioneer of some other institutions that have since flourished.' " The office of secretary, to which Mr. Hebblethwaite was appointed and which he so long satisfactorily filled, was not one of honorary distinction, but required much time, thought, and work. These duties he discharged with a punctuality that seldom failed, and with uniform courtesy. One of his chief qualities was that of aptitude in matters of business. In fact, he may justly be said to have been a ' model' secretary. All that he advised and did bore a certain impress of clear- sightedness, promptitude, and despatch. At the committee meetings (at which Montgomery, as long as he could, attended) there was scarcely ever a document wanting, an account incompleted, or minutes unentered, or any special business that he had engaged to do unattended to. All the matters to be considered and determined were clearly and orderly arranged. The discharge of these duties involved an amount of time and labour, cheerfully devoted to them, of which few can form any adequate conception. There can be no question that the institution was greatly indebted to his steady attentions and personal influence for the extent of its usefulness and the estimation in which it was held by the public. Besides his connection with the library, Mr. Hebblethwaite, for not less than thirty years, was the teacher of a large and efficient day school, and also, for more than the same period, the superintendent of a Sunday school; so that it may be safely affirmed that few menperhaps no manever exerted a greater or more beneficial influence on the minds of the youth in this town. Highly and generally esteemed by the members, as well as by the rest of the community, after a long course of honorary service, Mr. Hebblethwaite retired a short time before the institution was merged into the Free Library. " On the formation of the Free Library it became quite evident that an institution supported by a public rate levied on all householders must seriously injure, and eventually destroy, one sustained by voluntary subscription. Such was the result. The Mechanics' Library became absorbed into the Free Library, and now only exists as a pleasant memory of the past. " But as naturally identified and long connected with that institution, we now proceed to notice the librarian. Mr. Alfred Smith was as much a Sheffield notability, and in certain respects of a similar old-fashioned type, as the late Mr. John Holland. His father was a currier, for some time living in Queen street, but afterwards he removed to Fig Tree lane. Mr. Smith brought up his two sons, Alfred and Frederick, to the business; and I have myself often seen Alfred with his apron on and shirt sleeves turned up above the elbows, standing at the shop-door. That shop was a stone building, apparently two centuries old, with small leaded window-panes, a little above Mr. Haxworth's surgery, in Fig Tree lane. Alfred's father was a respectable and shrewd man, possessing more than an ordinary share of information, and well known to the public men of that day. He greatly admired, and was intimately acquainted with ` Montgomery, and stood by the poet on one of the occasions when he was examined and committed to prison by the magistrates, and went to fetch the persons who became his sureties. "Mr Smith, the father, was a stanch Liberal in politics, and the old 'currier shop' was a kind of meeting-place, where the most active local politicians of the time used frequently to resort for the purpose of learning the news and discussing public affairs. To that spot the late vicar, Dr. Sutton, used to repair to obtain information as to any event that was exciting public interest. It must be remembered that at that time there were no daily penny newspapers, or railway conveyance, or transmission of communications by telegraph. Young Alfred, as he listened to these discussions with attentive ears and eager interest, imbibed those political views and principles which, in a modified form, he ever afterwards held and believed in. He became in early life well known to Montgomery, and ever entertained for the poet a profound respect. He often spoke of Mr. Montgomery in such terms of high eulogy as seemed almost to amount to a kind of idolatry. " For some time after the Mechanics' Library was first established, the work of librarian was done by voluntary services. Afterwards, Mr. Clegg was appointed to that office, and, on his resignation, Mr. Alfred Smith. On the occasion of the election Montgomery spoke of him in very kindly and favourable terms. On being duly installed into the office, his manners of old-fashioned politeness and efforts to oblige soon won the good-will and esteem of the generality of the members. With kindly feelings will many of them, recall to memory his personal appearance. There was certainly something striking about it, including the bald head, high forehead, and long, pale, and unwhiskered face. His countenance, it will be remembered, was naturally grave, and on certain special occasions it was apt to assume that stronger expression of gravity that approached very nearly to the stolid and impassive. " But, unlike this outward appearance, he was of a very cheerful, kind-hearted, and genial disposition. He had an extensive knowledge of books of a certain kind, and his ordinary conversation was rendered interesting by curious scraps and quaint conceits. His memory was very extraordinary, and, indeed, was the chief faculty of his mental constitution. He knew the greater part of Hudibras by heart, and could give citations to any length. Montgomery, of course, was a very favourite author; and he often repeated passages both from his published poems and also from some others, which I suspect have escaped even the keen scrutinising search of the late Mr. Holland. In his younger days he had himself composed a considerable amount of poetry, which he could repeat to any extent. But it was in the doggerel style and Hudibrastic vein ; and it is very doubtful whether he possessed the requisite literary taste and ability to have written anything that would at all have stood the critical ordeal if printed in a volume. " Notwithstanding some manifest imperfections, he yet succeeded to a considerable extent in giving satisfaction; and it may be questioned whether a more clever business man would, on the whole, have served the interests of the library better than the good-tempered, humorous, gossiping, and somewhat eccentric ' librarian.' He certainly bad often to manifest a great deal of patience ; but, on the other hand, it is only fair to say he frequently required a large exercise of that said excellent quality towards himself. On certain occasions, whilst he was reciting poetry or telling some ***** story, might be seen more than half-a-dozen youngsters waiting for an exchange of books, who, with eager looks were listening with delight to what he was saying; whilst amongst them might be a man who thought his time of some value, who would, with signs of anger and impatience, remonstrate against such delay. Instantly the tale would be cut short, and the applicant's wishes attended to, with many apologies and efforts to conciliate and oblige. " On the occasion of Montgomery's funeral, with a large scarf around his hat, Alfred Smith was mounted on the box beside the driver of the carriage in which were the secretary, vice-president, and other officers of the Mechanics' Library leading up the procession. All along the road lined with spectators he was quietly recognised, and thus, by mere Accident, occupied a prominent position in paying his tribute of respect to the venerated poet. Soon after this event his health began visibly to fail, and he gradually sank into a debilitated condition; but still, notwithstanding all persuasions to the contrary, he resolutely attended, to almost the last day of his life, at the library, thus finishing his twenty-five years of faithful and conscientious service. During that period it was the writer's privilege to enjoy very frequent and pleasant intercourse, and also at the end to follow him to his grave, and see his mortal remains interred in the Pitsmoor Churchyard. " With his name the remembrance of the Sheffield Mechanics' Library will ever remain closely associated-an institution which may fairly claim to have fulfilled its original design for about forty years, by furnishing the means, at little cost, of reading valuable works on arts, science, literature, and religion, which were adapted to improve the intellect and to form and establish the moral and religious character."

Hi there folks, could anyone possibly tell me if I'm right on this one please. I'm looking at the 1871 census for head of household, William Bancroft. (His daughter Eliza is my Great Great Grandmother, she married Henry Rolley.) The address is Shude Lane, Forge Yard, Sheffield. I've found Shude Hill and what was Ponds Forge on google maps and on the 1800s map I've found Shude Hill and The Ponds. So, on the 1800s map, would one of the little side streets off Shude Hill be Shude Lane? Also, on Eliza Bancrofts birth certificate, the address is given as Forge Yard, Forge Lane. Sub-district of South Sheffield. Is this roughly all the same place? Thanks for any info or verification. Doris..

The reason was to see a railway enthusiast's special (in this context meaning an excursion) on its way towards Rotherham. During my wait I was surprised to see activity on a different line, about a quarter of a mile to the south of my position. An anonymous, shining-green tank-engine hauling open waggons was carefully negotiating a steep descent in the Rother Valley (see the white gate visible in s35507). After a while the same engine stormed sure-footedly back with another rake of waggons, this time empty. The waggons all had the initials 'U.C.C.' (United Coke and chemicals) painted in white on their sides. A minute or so later I heard the engine suddenly shut-off, no doubt because at its summit the climb had eased into level ground. These out and back runs occurred several times during my sojourn here. Mr Thickitt watched this activity for several hours from beside the main line railway/Chesterfield Road. Photo Mr. Thickitt refers to s35507 Beighton Castle area in the 1950s View northwards showing, gently curving away through the centre of the photograph, the largely freight-only, ex-Midland Railway Old Road . (The line running between Chesterfield and Rotherham, which was built years before the route through Sheffield city centre). Note this line has four tracks. On the left skyline a viaduct carried the ex-Great Central Railway's Sheffield to Lincoln line over the Old Road and the River Rother. To the right of the line towards Rotherham, the 'North Staveley Curve' leaves eastwards, perhaps still to access North Staveley Pit. On the 1:25000 Ordnance Survey map, surveyed during the 1950s, the line continued eastwards into Brookhouse Pit yard. (This line should not be confused with the out of picture but nearby, ex-Great Central Railway 'Waleswood Curve). The focal point of the scene, an eye-catching, white gate identified the boundary of a private-owner line. In this case operated (in the mid-1960s) by United Coke and Chemicals and leading (along a short, steep ascent) further east to Beighton Coking Plant. (this Beighton site was beside Brookhouse Pit and some distance from Orgreave Coking Plant). Further left, in the mid-ground to the west of the river was the Ex-Great Central Main Line (not visible) with Beighton Station not far ahead. Observe the bridge over the River Rother; a footpath across this had been reassuringly walled-off from the railway track! The river itself shows a vertical deep bank suggesting the Rother had already been canalized and embanked to prevent flooding. These works possibly occurred during the 1950s. Beyond the white gate, the sheet of water was probably a flash , the local name for a pond or lake formed by mining subsidence. Housing puncturing the skyline was on Park Hill, Swallownest. Information from J Thickitt.

Hartley Old Pit was started in the 13C, the first records mention it in 1291. It was abandoned in 1844. The Hester pit, aka New Hartley Colliery, (for which I quoted the depth) was then started and reached the low main coal on 29 May 1846. It was a single pit colliery. It was sealed after the disaster of 16 January 1862 and never reopened. In 1874 a new colliery consisting of the Hastings and Melton pits was started nearby which eventually broke into the old workings in 1901. The whole colliery was abandoned in 1959 leaving 70 years of coal below ground. Both Hartley and New Hartley collieries had workings reaching out beneath the North Sea. Thanks for the info on the Sheffield collieries. I've re-read page 20 and can't see a mention of the Watt engine. Page 20 is "Instructions to the Founder" concerning the making of the corf. The description of "The Fire Engine" starts on page 37. Just in case we're looking at different publications, the URL is https://archive.org/details/bim_eighteenth-century_the-coal-viewer-and-eng_1797/page/n19/mode/2up WE both agree that the point of the book is to promote his own designs and inventions, it was the lack of even a passing reference that surprised me, that's all.

I attach a screen shot of the 1849 Ordnance Survey map of part of the city centre. I'm looking at the history of the Porter Brook in the area. I've walked through the culverted parts a few times and there is a lovely stone arch bridge/tunnel between the Decathlon car park and the former Staples car park. The latter entrance is visible through a clump of trees. I think from the 1849 map that this is the two centuries old, and still intact, Vulcan Works Bridge (Vulcan Works was certainly on the site at the old Staples car park end). It is best part of 100 yards long and the Ordnance survey map shows it to be of some length (Hereford St did, and still does, run over the top). Any info/dates of Vulcan works and/or better map links greatly appreciated

The following extract reveals how some Sheffielders had "Gardens" not always attached to their dwelling but a separate garden in the suburbs where they enjoyed relief from their work and grew flowers and produce to feed their families but sadly, were gradually being destroyed as Sheffield expanded in the middle part of the 1800's. Extracted from Reminiscences of old Sheffield, it's streets and it's people. edited 1875 by R. E. Leader from articles and Letters from The Sheffield and Rotherham Independent 1872/3. Page 145-153. CHAPTER VII. Old Sheffield Gardens. Present — Messrs. Twiss, Leighton, Everard, Wragg, Leonard and Johnson. Period— A.D. 1873. We were all sitting, one charming and warm evening, in the cosy summer-house of our friend Twiss. It was not in the garden attached to his residence, for he dwelt in the recesses of a dingy town, with a melancholy grave-yard for his outlook. But he was old-fashioned enough and wise enough to stick to the traditional Hallamshire custom of keeping a small garden-plot out in the suburbs, to which he could retire in the intervals from business, in which he could delight his horticultural soul, and, above all, which gave him an object for a walk after the toils of the day. It was a treat to see him in the fading twilight of a summer night, wending his way back to his sooty brick dwelling, laden with rural spoils, with which to enliven it — a huge "posy" of lupines and sweet-williams, and pinks, of cabbage-roses and pansies, and other good old English flowers, now despised and rejected, in obedience to the "bedding out" mania, for masses of scarlet geraniums and yellow calceolarias. Nor was he above bearing through the crowded streets products of even a humbler kind — big-headed cauliflowers or juicy lettuces, or largehearted cabbages — or some other palatable form of the much embracing genus "greens." Of course, being in the country — so to speak, though we were by no means out of the reach or out of sight of the smoke — our talk was of country things. One told how his grandfather, a great garden-smith, used to delight to get away from his shop to his little plot down Bramall Lane way — a walk among the hedges and through pleasant shady lanes; and another remembered being sent, in 1825, with a message to Montgomery, who had retired from his sanctum upstairs in the dingy Hartshead— over the coal place, and with depressing outlook on to brick walls and dilapidated roofs — to refresh himself for a time among the polyanthuses and daffodils of his garden, between Glossop Road and Leavygreave. That is where Hounsfield Road is now, for most of the space from Glossop Road to Brook Hill, belonging to the Water Company, was divided into these little plots. The town in those days was literally surrounded with groups of neatly-partitioned gardens. The late Mr. Edward Baines (M.P. for Leeds from 1834 to 1841) was accustomed to remark that the multitude of small, nicely-kept gardens in its suburbs was a characteristic of Sheffield, in which it was in advance of any other large town he knew. Look which way you would, or go in what direction you would, there they were. Besides the celebrated gardens in the neighbourhood of Hanover Street, there were similar gardens higher up Broomspring Lane and Wilkinson Street, and on the site of the Baptist Church on Glossop Road, and up to Northumberland road and opposite Mushroom Hall to Westbourne, Mr. Cadman's house, near which are a few remaining. From Glossop Road the Water Company's land extended into Brook Hill, and the gardens on this piece were always considered some of the best in the town. Near to and behind the late Ald. Saunders' house in Brook Hill, were gardens, behind which were others, reaching down by Brightmore Street, Bellefield Street, Portmahon, Bedford Street, and Waterloo Houses (commenced building by the father of James Levick, the dahlia grower, and finished by his mother), to the River Don. Then on the opposite side of the river, the site of Neepsend brewery, and right up to the wood and Woodside Lane; also on the opposite side of Woodside Lane, under Pye Bank, to the mouth of the railway tunnel. Harvest Lane, and Green Lane to Colson Crofts were occupied in a similar way; and another plot of small gardens is now on the site of the old Midland Station in the Wicker. These as originally intended, were to have been the basin of the Sheffield Canal. On the opposite side of the road, between Twelve o' Clock Wheel, or the Albion Ironworks, and the Norfolk Bridge, was another lot of gardens, destroyed about 25 years ago. There were small gardens in the Park, part of which is St. John's churchyard. There were some others at Skye Edge, down to Duke Street, or the Intake road. At the end of Clough Lane, down to the river Sheaf (Sheaf Gardens), were gardens considered second to none in the neighbourhood, some containing good double houses, not like those in Club Gardens, Sharrow Lane. From these were others extending across Suffolk Road, down to Harmer Lane. There were also the gardens just destroyed at the end of Bramall Lane, opposite Sheaf House, on the path to Highfield; and about 25 years ago was destroyed a plot of gardens that had extended from the top of Young Street to Broomhall Street. There were some others that have disappeared, to make room for buildings about the General Cemetery and Broomhall Mill. "When all the above gardens were in existence," said Mr. Wragg, "I believe one out of every three working men had a garden, which he cultivated more for pleasure than profit. This was far better than his present gambling propensities; but further, there were not a few instances in which the working man's garden assisted him to clothe his family, or to pay off debts, unavoidably contracted, by the sale of the fruit from his pear or apple trees. Now, there are no such places for a working man to resort to in his spare time, except for those who are members of some Land Society outside the town. It is said he may resort to the Library, or peruse his book at home; that he can amuse himself by holding communication with the great men of past ages; but all such talk is a delusion. Bodily toil and mental discipline will not go hand in hand, or blend. The garden plots remaining are, alas, but few; they may be almost counted on the fingers of one hand, some under the wood at Hillfoot, and some in Neepsend Lane to the river; the Water Company's piece, Hanging bank, and in the flat below the site of the old dams, commonly called Upper and Lower Canada; some around Younge's Silver Rolling Mill; some, comparatively speaking recently made, between Hyde Park and the Manor. There are a few left in Ecclesall Road. In Sharrow Lane are the Club Gardens, that have always been remarkable for the number of houses occupied by the tenants. Fenton Ville gardens and South View gardens, extending down into the Abbeydale road, are noted for the number of their florists, the most successful of whom is William Allsebrook, famous for rearing new kinds of polyanthuses. I am sorry to say I believe all these gardens will soon be like the others mentioned — demolished." Leonard: Yes, they are fast being engulphed by the omnivorous builders; and the robberies to which they are exposed are a great discouragement to the enthusiastic amateurs who compete at pink shows, or dahlia contests, or who strive to raise gigantic gooseberries, to be weighed at Florists' Inns, and celebrated with a supper. Let us hope that this annihilation of garden allotments does not indicate that the healthy delight in floriculture that has always been a characteristic of Hallamshire is dying out. You may still see the grinder returning from a pop visit to his little country delight, laden with early spring rhubarb, or with roots of celery, according to the season of the year; and freehold building societies have altered life so much as to give working men an opportunity of having their homes standing in their own gardens, which is not only healthier but handier. A member of our company mentioned the splendid bed of ranunculuses which a resident in one of the houses still standing opposite the top of Broomhall Street, used to show, and reminded us of the celebrated garden which the Staniforths, father and son, the eminent surgeons in Castle Street, had in the Grimesthorpe road, the present Gardeners' Arms being their garden house. Mr. Wragg recalled that kind, genial old man, Edward Middleton, baker, who kept the Barleycorn Tavern, in Coalpit Lane — the most obliging of neighbours among amateur gardeners. The vicinity of Hanover Street used to be marked out like a chess board by these gardens, and Middleton had one, near the corner of Broomspring Lane and Hanover Street. The top part of it forms now part of Hanover Street, and the bottom extended behind the houses of Mr. Owen, the draper, which face to Broomspring Lane. Afterwards, he showed his skill in one of those previously spoken of, on Glossop Road — where Charles Thompson's coach premises are now, then belonging to the Water Company — having gone there by reason of his neighbour, John Burton, the Quaker, buying a garden for him. Mr. Wragg believed that the last possessor of Middleton's garden, near Mr. Owen's houses, was the late Mr. Bennett, grocer, Church Street, elder brother of the present Mr. Bennett, who succeeded him in his business. Joshua Wilkinson had the next garden above, and he sold it to William Melluish, the last survivor among the many South Devon Militiamen who settled in Sheffield after the disbanding of the regiment. The garden above was Mr. Swift's, the father of Mr. G. E. Swift, in the steel trade, in Blonk Street. At the front of Spring Lane was Samuel Padley's (a Quaker), the father of Mr. Padley, of the firm of Padley, Parkin, & Co., silversmiths, in Watson's Walk. The late Mr. Bramhall, one of the managers of Messrs. Rodgers and Sons, and Mr. Staniforth, grocer, of Broad Lane, had gardens hereabouts. Mr. Roger Brown was the last who had Mr. Staniforth's. Just below, and behind Josh. Ingle's house, an old woman of the name of Savage had a garden, and did all the gardening herself. The late Mr. B. Hinchcliffe had a garden in this piece, and there is a tradition that the late Mr. John Holland occupied a garden here, but his nearest friends are incredulous about it. The story is that an old man, a relative, did the gardening for him, in which case it may possibly have been his uncle Amos. A file cutter, afterwards a silver stamper, named William Hague, had the first garden opposite old Mrs. Savage's. Being a frugal man he saved money, by means of which he built the houses at the bottom of Broomspring Lane, and opened a grocer's shop at the corner. The last person who had Mr. Hague's garden was Mr. Worth, the joiner and builder. Mr. Turner, the Sheriff's officer in Campo Lane, had also a garden; so had Mr. Taylor, of the Commercial Inn, Haymarket, now destroyed by the making of the new street into Norfolk Street; and Mr. Theaker just by, for many years the only coffee-house keeper in the town, had two up to the time of their destruction. James Levick, the ivory merchant, of Pinstone Street, was a well-known dahlia grower. He raised from seed a dahlia which was named "Levick's Incomparable," the beauty of which was that the petals were tipped with white in so peculiar a manner that many persons supposed they were subjected to some chemical process. But this peculiarity was not at all of regular occurrence; and many growers, disappointed by obtaining flowers without the white tips, poured out their woes in the "Floricultural Cabinet," then published by Mr. Ridge, in King Street, and conducted by Mr. Harrison, Lord Wharncliffe's gardener. They besought Mr. Levick to give them details of cultivation, and in reply, he could only say that the flowering was very eccentric, sometimes he produced the flowers with tips and sometimes without; and Mr. Paxton, having one year obtained most beautifully tipped blooms, set a large quantity the next year in most conspicuous places, and had not a single bloom tipped. The secret seemed to be to check a too luxuriant growth of the plant. Mr. Levick also produced a handsome crimson dahlia — "Commander-in-Chief" — which was honoured with a coloured engraving in the work named. Mr. Thomas Tyson, who kept the "Fountain," in Coalpit Lane, was a distinguished florist, and a man evidently much respected by his brethren, for "his funeral was attended by the florists of the town, who strewed his coffin with a profusion of most beautiful flowers." Club Gardens, as has been said, were remarkable for the number of the houses occupied by the tenants. In one house resided the late Mr. Paul Smith, a well-to-do-man, said to have been worth six or eight thousand pounds ; but he was induced to enter into partnership with some firm which shortly afterwards failed. The creditors seized all the property of Mr. Smith to pay the debts of the firm, so he became a poor man, and died a recipient of the Iron and Hardware Pensions. Another resident in these gardens was the late Mr. Charles Unwin, of Westbar, the broker. Previously he had a garden in Brook Hill, in the piece behind Mr. Brightmore's house. After the death of Mr. Thomas Nowill, Mr. Unwin bought his garden, and there he resided at the time of his disastrous fire, in which some thousands of pounds worth of his property and stock-in-trade was destroyed. It gave such a shock to his nervous system that soon after he died, about 16 or 18 years ago. Mr. Unwin was a native of Anston, and originally was a labouring man; but he turned sawyer, and was a very hard worker. Another native of Anston was the late Mr. Henry Broomhead, the solicitor, whose father was a tanner. Some of the best gardens in the neighbourhood were the Sheaf Gardens. About thirty years ago the late Mr. William Stratford had a garden that was remarkable for the neat manner in which it was kept by Mr. Stratford himself; and his tulip bed was the admiration of all beholders. Hanging Bank Gardens, when in existence, were notable for the number of those tenants who exhibited gooseberries at shows ("berry showers") the chief of whom, and the most successful, was the late Robert Green. He resided in one of the houses, probably built by himself or a former tenant, since it is not the work of a mason. He had another garden lower down, but one or two others intervened, and up a walk nearer where the stream of water ran from the Water Company's dams. From his success as an exhibitor of goose-berries he obtained many copper kettles as prizes. When the time of exhibiting was about to take place, his garden had to be watched from the Saturday night to Monday morning to prevent his trees being stripped. Green was a spring-knife cutler, and worked for the late Mr. B. Micklethwaite, whose workmen were very respectable, honourable, and upright. Amongst them there were none of the coarse jokes, indecent conversation, or unmeaning, empty, and profane jests, so common among workmen in the workshops of the present day. They talked when they had something to say, and years after, when one would casually meet another in the street it was always with kindness and respect, something like one gentleman meeting another. About 40 years ago, in one of the gardens near what is now the top of Fawcett Street, just before Bellefield house, was a whitewashed house, with sash windows, in which resided the late John Milner, who in his day was said to have been one of the best, if not the best spring-knife cutler in the trade, and notable for his great powers of debate. He was born in Spring Street or the immediate vicinity, and in his youth or childhood was a companion of the late Mr. Wm. Stratford. He was the last survivor of his early associates. When John Milner left the house it was not afterwards occupied. It dwindled away — lads first broke the windows, and next it gradually disappeared. In Watery Lane was a very good house standing back in a garden. For some time it was unoccupied, and from being untenanted it got into a dilapidated condition. A few* years ago, a portion of one of its walls fell on some children, and one of them was killed. The last occupier was a person of the name of Ross, who left the town and afterwards died. Ross was a man who was going to get every one his fortune. People who believed they or their ancestors had been deprived or dispossessed of property flocked to him in crowds. Somewhere in the vicinity Ross had a rival, a woman, who had two strings to her bow, for in addition to being a fortune-hunter she was a fortune-teller. The market gardeners' grounds ranged, for the most part, from Neepsend and the Old Park Wood to Hall Carr. There was George Stubbing, whose garden, kept before him by Mr. Thornhill, who had a cook shop in the Hartshead, extended from Woodside Lane to Old Park Wood, being bounded on the north by Cook Wood. Part of his garden in Harvest Lane is now the depot of the Board of Health, while the southern part, including the site of the original house, was taken for the Manchester Railway. Before beginning a garden on his own account, Mr. Stubbing had been in the service of Dr. Webb, of whose garden in Harvest Lane he had charge. There was James Andrews, who had an orchard at Neepsend, where the Neepsend Nursery now is; and the orchard in Harvest Lane of William Burgin, now displaced by the various works in Mowbray Street, was one of the finest sights in the town in spring time. Who does not remember, too, that other orchard on the slope below Burn Greave, which everybody would stop and admire even so late as 1855-60? There were two other Burgins besides William, but he was not related to them. They were brothers, George and Jonathan. The former was the last inhabitant of the Clay's house, in Bridgehouses; the latter had a fruit shop in Bower Spring. From Pitsmoor Church to Burn Greave, and to where the Railway crosses Tom Cross Lane, market gardeners had their grounds, and a pleasant walk it was through them, for the Burngreave Road and Rock Street were not made then. The orchard and grounds between these two roads, where Catherine Street now is, were occupied long ago by John Pearson. His family were table-knife cutlers at Neepsend, but he was fonder of gardening than cutlering. Afterwards the land was in the hands of Mr. John Garnett for many years. Then it got into Chancery and was in a lost-looking state until it was built upon. Mr. Garnett removed to the land between the Wicker Congregational Church and Carlisle street, Gower Street having been made across it near to where what was his house still stands. Gardens of similar kind extended to Hall Carr Lane, where, not many years ago, gypsies might sometimes be seen. On the other side of the town was Mr. Hatfield's nursery, on the Glossop road, adjoining Wesley College, which often attracted passers by its beauty. From gardens and gardening we got to talk generally of the changes that have taken place in what may be called the nearer suburban surroundings of the town. The youngest member of our friendly group could, we found, call to mind surprising changes; as for the eldest, the wondrous transmutations to which he could bear witness were endless. Within a very small radius of the Parish Church — say Carver Street Chapel — he had walked in green fields, or traversed woods whose sites are now occupied by whole colonies of houses, and it was told how tradition affirmed that a resident at the top of Coalpit Lane had shown his children Judge Wilkinson's stacks burning at Broomhall from the field on which Carver Street Chapel now stands, then called "Cadman's-in-the-fields." That was in 1791; a more recent story was that in 1817, two ears of wheat were plucked in a field at Roscoe Place, each seven inches long. One of them contained 69 and the other 70 corns. Our old friend's description of Broomhall Spring, which he remembered when he was about 10 years old — in 1791 — was very interesting. "I very well remember," said he, "coming with my father through the wood called Broomhall Spring. It extended from about Wilkinson Street to Broomhall Park. It was full of very fine oak trees, with very little underwood, and the turf was soft like that of a park. I remember very well seeing the trees and the grass, and the sunlight gleaming among them. Not long afterwards the wood was cut down. The Government was then wanting a great deal of oak timber for ship-building, and the trees in Broomhall Spring were sold for that purpose. The roots were dug up, and the land turned into the gardens of which we have been speaking." The inscription on the stone over the trough was still there up to 1836. It ran: — "Spring Garden Well. To the public use, by the Rev. James Wilkinson and Philip Gell, Esq. Freely take — freely communicate — thank God," its site is now enclosed in the garden of the house at the corner of Gell Street and Conway Street.

Looking for historical information please regarding the White Houses, which were situated at the corner of Bramall Lane and Cherry Street.

I was thrilled to see the Queen's at 37 Dun Street, Shalesmoor listed on your website http://www.sheffield...733 My father and mum (Mr Brian Salmons and Mrs Kathleen Salmons) were tenents of this Whitbread pub from the late 50s until 1965 and I grew up there. As I remember it was actually called the Queens Hotel and only opened in the evenings on weekdays. Best regards, Brian. Further information Thanks for your mail. I know for certain is that we moved out in March 1965. I was born in 1958 and they were already at 37 Dun Street then.They were married in 1956 and lived for a few months with Dad's mum before moving to the Queens so I am sure they did not take over from Mrs Gracie Lewin. When we were there it was a Whitbread pub and we used to go to the Brewery HQ on Lady's bridge. I recall it was the Queen's Hotel and remember we had lodgers.

This is a list of names who went to the House of Help. From 1888 to 1906 Information Given Surname, First name, age, address, date entered, case number Some Address information is missing Title Oakdale House, House of Help for Friendless Women and Girls, Sheffield. AdminHistory The House of Help for Friendless Girls and Young Women and Mission Registry was created by the extension of a Free Registry which was set up in the late 1880s by Mr Arthur Davy as Treasurer and Mrs Phoebe Flather as Honorary Secretary. The Free Registry acted as a contact between potential domestic workers and employers and was funded through donations and subscriptions. The House of Help and Mission Registry was established at 1 Paradise Square, Sheffield in 1885 to offer girls support and training to enable them to secure employment. It was designed to be a residential centre for "Rescue and Preventative Work" and was the first of its kind in Britain. The house was known as 'the Preventative and Rescue Society' but by c. 1890 it was known as the 'House of Help for Friendless Girls and Young Women'. There were set criteria for admittance into the House, although the Committee were allowed powers of discretion in urgent cases. In 1904, in order to be admitted, the following criteria had to be met: "Young Women who have fallen from virtue, and desire to redeem their character." "Young Girls who have lost one or both Parents, or who have parent living, should those parents be of loose character." "Girls of Good Character who are not able to go to situations from want of clothing, are provided with outfits, which are afterwards paid for, by arrangement between the Mistress and the Committee when situations have been procured for them." "Girls coming into town by train, or otherwise, needing temporary lodgings, are received either day or night." "Help is given to Friendless Girls who have recovered from illness in Hospitals, and been compelled to pawn their clothing." The girls and women only stayed at the House until a more suitable arrangement, such as admittance to hospital or a refuge, could be found. The Police Court Missionaries (forerunners of probation officers) worked with the House. Girls were sometimes sent direct from court to the House before being sent to a home which dealt specifically with those who had been charged with dishonesty. Some were sent to the workhouse and while there training placements were found for them. By 1908, the premises at 1 Paradise Square were too small and through fund raising, 17 Paradise Square was bought. The new premises accommodated double the number of beds. In 1940, work at the House temporarily ceased owing to an air-raid which damaged the house. A new house was sought during 1941 and appeals for furniture, money and goods appeared in the local paper. On New Year's Day 1942, the House re-opened at 346 Glossop Road. The lease for this house expired in 1952. A new house was purchased at 148 Broomspring Lane through donations by Mrs J H Doncaster and the J G Graves Charitable Trust. In 1961 a generous legacy was given to the House from the estate of Mr William Cook. This enabled the House to purchase another property at Carterknowle Road. The House of Help closed in 2005.

Fireman Clark was pinned beneath the Engine, and it was two hours before he was released: he succumbed to his injuries the following day.Walter Howell, Driver of the first engine, was very badly injured and scalded. Driver Borland and Fireman Jarred both of Liverpool, escaped without injuries, although their engine was almost overturned.
