can anyone tell me where in Attercliffe Bessemer Square was. It existed in 1900

Hiya Dora and Welcome, Bessemer Square laid between Washfoed Road, Faraday Road and Birch and Livingstone Roads.

Search for Bessemer in this article, hopefully a map wizzard will be along later with an image.

Mentioned in Kelly's 1957 Directory ...

Bertha Street - list of residents

Bessemer Place, Stevenson Road, Attercliffe (No thoroghfare)

... Bessemer Square ...

Bessemer Road - list of residents

So, looking at right up against Attercliffe Road end, between Birch Road and Trent Street. Directly opposite Lovetot Street.

Compulsory Purchase Order No 353, (1938) covering the area. Presumably the War put a stop to most of this since Trent Street is on my 1991 map.

A marriage was held on 26th December 1888 in the Emmanual church at Sheffield after banns. The bride was Laura Preen, a spinster aged 22 living at 10 Bessemer Square and the daughter of Thomas Preen, an edge-tool-maker. The groom was John William Ludbrook, a bachelor aged 22 and a miner living at 11 Buttys Lump and the son of John Ludbrook, a miner. The witnesses were Edwin Pountney and Annie Elizabeth Preen and all four signed.
