EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1959 showcases the Crimean Monument and a drinking fountain, with the iconic Nelson Hotel towering in the background. Erected as a poignant tribute to the Sheffield soldiers and sailors who lost their lives in The Crimea, this magnificent monument stands tall on a pedestal made of Darley Dale stone. At its base lie guns that were captured from the Russians, serving as a powerful reminder of past conflicts. The column itself is an impressive sight, but what truly catches the eye is the statue adorning its summit – none other than our beloved late Queen Victoria. Her regal presence adds an air of majesty to this already striking structure. In addition to capturing this historical memorial, the photo also offers glimpses of everyday life in Moorhead. Zebra crossings can be seen nearby, ensuring safe passage for pedestrians across bustling streets adorned with Belisha beacons. The scene is further enhanced by charming street furniture and public houses dotting the city center. Notably featured in this snapshot is the prominent Nelson Hotel, standing proudly amidst its surroundings. This grand establishment has long been a landmark within Sheffield's landscape and continues to serve as both accommodation for visitors and a hub for locals. Preserved within Sheffield City Archives, this print encapsulates not only history but also moments frozen in time – reminding us of our city's rich heritage while inviting us to reflect upon days gone by.
