EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1784, offering a glimpse into the past with its detailed depiction of the Cutlers Wheel House on Little Sheffield Moor. The full title reveals that this historical site was held by James Bennett under the Earl of Surrey's ownership. The image showcases not only Bennetts Wheel and dam but also highlights various elements such as the watering place and all the courses of the River Porter. Every intricate detail has been meticulously captured, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in this moment frozen in time. Preserved at Sheffield Libraries, this original piece (arc03503) serves as a valuable resource for those interested in studying Sheffield's rich history. Located in Yorkshire, this region is renowned for its waterwheels and their significant role in powering industries during that era. It is important to note that while this photograph offers a fascinating insight into Sheffield's heritage, it should not be associated with any commercial use or linked to any specific company.
