Week 182, Hidden gems of Sheffield


Having walked past here a thousand times I'd never really noticed this Georgian row properly.

Built in 1791 during the reign of George III.

On the left Venture Works, the home of Herbert M Slater, formed in 1853.

And on the right Hallam House, both Grade II listed and built at the same time.

The building in the middle doesn't appear to be listed even though it is part of the same construction.

The windows are altered out of character with the style of the building.

Presumably these alterations, made after 1965, predate any requirement to keep it original.

As can be seen in the linked image above this Georgian row continued for some distance down Arundel Street.

Until the rest were demolished for some reason.
