Attercliffe, a place steeped in history and resilience. From the grand plans of a canal connecting Sheffield to Tinsley in 1815, to the devastating marks left by bombing targets during World War II. This area has seen it all. The Attercliffe Palace Theatre stood proudly in Sheffield, Yorkshire, captivating audiences with its vibrant programmes in 1951. Just outside its doors, Brown Bayleys Steel Works Ltd showcased their might and craftsmanship at the old Bessemer shop. Delving further into the past, we discover a map from 1768 depicting Attercliffe Forge and its surrounding lands belonging to notable figures like the Duke of Norfolk and Eliz Fell. The industrial revolution brought about change as evidenced by Firth Brown's impressive steam hammer at Savile Street junction. During challenging times such as World War II, even maps were not spared from destruction or alteration. German markings on an Ordnance Survey map reveal their sinister intentions towards this resilient community. But amidst turmoil, life carried on. Excursions advertised by Great Central Railway offered respite and leisure for locals seeking solace in nearby towns like Newark or Skegness in 1912. Industrial prowess continued with Marple and Gillott Ltd. , scrap metal merchants who operated out of The Old Bridge Street Foundry and Eagle Works in Stevenson Road since 1939 - contributing to Attercliffe's economic growth. Not forgetting recreational activities that brought joy to residents' lives; Attercliffe Swimming Club hosted their annual gala at Attercliffe Baths in 1909 - showcasing talent and fostering community spirit. Today, remnants of steelmaking plants stand tall along Don Valley - symbols of strength forged through time. As we reflect upon Attercliffe's rich tapestry woven with ambition, resilience, industry, recreation, and unity; let us honor this remarkable place that has weathered storms while preserving its unique identity throughout history.
