EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Attercliffe Road, Sheffield in 1907. The image showcases a vibrant streetscape filled with an array of shops and businesses that were the lifeblood of this thriving community. Amongst them, prominently displayed at No. 545, is Wm. Jn. King's provision dealer shop, serving as a testament to the entrepreneurial spirit that characterized the era. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from history, our attention is drawn to Tram No. 104 gracefully gliding along the road, showcasing an early form of public transportation that connected people across the city. The presence of horse-drawn carriages further adds to the charm and nostalgia evoked by this scene. Preserved meticulously from an original source at Sheffield Libraries: s13135, this print offers a glimpse into everyday life during a pivotal period in Sheffield's history. It captures not only the architecture and infrastructure but also provides insight into how communities thrived through local commerce. The significance lies not just in documenting these physical structures but also in recognizing their role as social hubs where residents gathered for daily necessities or chance encounters with neighbors and friends. With its rich details and historical context, this image serves as a visual portal inviting us to step back over a century ago when Attercliffe Road was abuzz with activity – forever etching itself into Sheffield's collective memory.
