EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Sheffield City Archives takes us back to the year 1875, where we find Miss Clara Hayball, later known as Mrs. Keeling, gracefully perched on a velocipede. The image was skillfully captured by her father, Arthur Hayball, at his renowned wood-carving works on Cavendish Street. In this snapshot frozen in time, Miss Clara exudes an air of confidence and adventure as she confidently balances herself atop the innovative two-wheeled contraption. Her elegant attire hints at the societal norms of the era while showcasing her determination to embrace new modes of transportation. The backdrop of Mr. Hayball's wood-carving workshop adds an industrial charm to the photograph. It serves as a reminder that even amidst rapid technological advancements during this period in Sheffield's history, traditional craftsmanship still held its place within society. This image not only captures a momentous occasion for Miss Clara but also symbolizes the growing popularity and acceptance of cycling during that time. As one gazes upon this remarkable piece of history preserved through photography, it becomes evident how cycling became more than just a means of transport; it represented freedom and empowerment for women like Miss Clara. Let us cherish this extraordinary glimpse into Sheffield's past - celebrating both personal milestones and societal progress - all encapsulated within one mesmerizing photograph.
