EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Sheffield City Archives takes us back to a significant event in history - the devastating Sheffield Flood of 1864. The image captures the haunting ruins at Malin Bridge, with the iconic Hillsborough area visible in the background. Amidst the wreckage stands Cleakum Inn, also known as Malin Bridge Inn, a once-thriving public house that now serves as a somber reminder of this tragic natural disaster. The photograph transports us to a time when torrential rains caused unimaginable destruction throughout Sheffield. As we gaze upon these crumbling structures, it is impossible not to feel a sense of awe and melancholy for what was lost during those fateful days. The floodwaters engulfed houses, hotels, and public buildings alike, leaving behind nothing but ruins in their wake. This poignant snapshot offers a glimpse into the resilience of Sheffield's residents as they faced an unprecedented crisis. It reminds us of our shared vulnerability to nature's forces and serves as a testament to human strength in times of adversity. Preserved within this archival treasure are not just bricks and mortar but stories untold; tales of survival and rebuilding that shaped the city's future. This photograph invites us to reflect on our own capacity for resilience while honoring those who endured such hardship over 150 years ago
