"Exploring the Rich History of Bradfield: From Floods to Farms" Step back in time and discover the captivating history of Bradfield, a charming village nestled in South Yorkshire. The Plan of Agden Estate, dating back to 1872, unveils the grandeur of Bradfield's past as it showcases the property belonging to B. J. Young esquire. The devastating Great Flood that struck Sheffield in 1864 left its mark on Bradfield too. The Blue Ball Inn and numerous houses along Bradfield Road in Hillsborough were tragically destroyed, reminding us of the resilience and strength exhibited by this tight-knit community during times of adversity. Delving further into history, we encounter Oughtibridge Hall Farm through a plan from 1770. This farm was once owned by none other than the Duke of Norfolk himself. Such prestigious ownership speaks volumes about the significance and allure surrounding Bradfield throughout centuries gone by. Education has always been valued here as evidenced by mentions such as Sheffield Truant School, which played an essential role in shaping young minds within this idyllic countryside setting. Bradfield's agricultural heritage shines through with a sale poster for Ellis Crapper's farm and land from 1839. Holdworth Farm stood proudly amidst rolling hills, contributing to both sustenance and livelihoods for generations. Nature enthusiasts will be captivated by images depicting vast moors like those found at Bradfield and Stannington Moors during the 19th century. These untouched landscapes offer glimpses into a simpler time when nature reigned supreme. Maps showcasing parcels of land along River Rivelin from as early as 1784 reveal how crucial waterways were for transportation and trade within this region steeped in natural beauty. Platts Farm holds historical significance dating all the way back to 1728 when it was surveyed—a testament to enduring legacies that have shaped modern-day communities within Ughill area.
