EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Plan of part of the Town of Sheffield" in 1847, highlighting both the existing markets and the projected improvements. The property depicted belongs to His Grace the Duke of Norfolk, a prominent figure in Sheffield's history. Surveyed by J G Weightman and M E Hadfield, this detailed map provides an invaluable glimpse into the town's development during that era. The image captures various significant landmarks within Sheffield, including municipal buildings, market halls, and railway stations such as Midland Station. The presence of fairgrounds adds a touch of liveliness to this snapshot from the past. Notable streets like Waingate, Angel Street, Castlefolds, Wicker Road, and many others are clearly marked on this plan. One cannot miss observing key features like Shambles Market and Castle Hill Exchange which were integral parts of daily life back then. Additionally, elements such as canals with their basins for transport purposes are visible alongside corn and cattle markets. It is important to note that this particular print originates from Sheffield Local Studies Library (s 16 L) at Sheffield City Archives. While it offers valuable insights into historical mapping data for research purposes or personal interest; its use should not be associated with any commercial activities. Overall, this fascinating visual documentation invites us to explore Sheffield's rich heritage while appreciating its growth over time through meticulous planning and development projects undertaken nearly two centuries ago.
