This picture shows the main buildings fronting onto Rutland Road ...compare with ... Image ... this later picture does confirm Martin's comments about the demolished properties. Stanley Tools has been in the Sheffield area since 1937 when it took over the Chapman Brace and Drill Factory on Woodside Lane, which runs parallel to and behind Rutland Road. Further sites were opened in Ecclesfield and Hellaby, but in the early 2000s all production was moved to Hellaby. The Ecclesfield site has now been demolished and houses built on the land. This Rutland Road site is empty and becoming more derelict by the day. Image Image Image Image Image
