Not Fulwood, but nearby. Scissors, Paper, Stone is a community history project which 'explores the origins of St John's Church in Ranmoor: the people who built it, the community which founded it and the people it served'. Its website is worth exploring for information and news of events taking place.

There won't be meeting this evening as such as instead there is a talk taking place at our usual meeting place of Broomhill Library. The talk is one of many events taking place this week as part of Sheffield's Heritage Open Days:

Landscape Architect Ollie Pike will talk about some of his latest projects that connect people, place and heritage including the Percy Cane Heritage Garden and National Trust garden at Lyveden Manor.

Our June meeting took place outdoors so we could take advantage of a beautiful midsummer evening while learning about the history of the fields above Forge Dam and the cluster of buildings around Brook House.

Here's news of a another history walk led by a member of our group - no booking necessary - just turn up:
'...it will cover part of Glossop Road, St Mark's Crescent, Broomfield Road, and a small part of Beech Hill Road. This area was originally labelled simply as Broomfield in the early days of Broomhill. Several of the properties that existed back in the day were of course demolished to make way for the Royal Hallamshire Hospital and also for hospital accommodation, but there is plenty to hear about even so. Amongst other stories I have unearthed information about steel manufacturers - both English and German, houses with two addresses, mining engineers and how the Rutland Hotel started. Representatives of Steel, Peech and Tozer make their annual appearance(!) There's no need to book, just turn up and let's hope that the weather holds for us.
