Walkling through the River Porter culverts


Sheffield History

Recommended Posts

Another fantastic video here from Patrick Dickinson as he takes a walk where most Sheffielders have never been and never seen, down the culverts of the River Porter in Sheffield

I watched this one a while ago after seeing his Megatron films. Absolutely loved the way it showed me parts of Sheffield I knew nothing about and in some cases never knew existed.

His enthusiasm is quite something as well.

I walked through part of this route back in the mid sixties as an adventurous teenager.

I was pleased to read that Sheffield is planning to open up some of its culverted rivers. They're a great resource that will give the city even more character. http://www.thestar.co.uk/news/feature-bold-plans-to-uncover-sheffield-s-hidden-rivers-1-8421598

I posted about Patrick a few weeks ago in the 'videos' section. Anyone know him? Certainly a character and I'd be happy to walk around with him!
