This print takes us back to the year 1897, offering a glimpse into the past with its detailed depiction of the "Plan of Burngreave Recreation Ground". Preserved by Sheffield City Council's General Purposes and Parks Committee, this image showcases an invaluable piece of history. The recreation ground, situated in the heart of Burngreave, is beautifully captured on this map-like illustration. The print reveals a meticulously planned layout that highlights various landmarks within the area. From Catherine Street to Bank Road, every street and road is intricately mapped out for all to see. This historical document not only serves as a visual representation but also provides insight into how urban planning was approached during that era. As we study this photograph closely, it becomes evident that this recreation ground held great significance for the local community.
