Ebenezer Elliott - The Corn Law Rhymer - lived in this house, according to the Blue Plaque, from 1834 to 1841. The Blue Plaque is just visible to the right of the front door. The house would have been surrounded by countryside at that time ... now, sadly, it is 'just another house' in a street in Sheffield ... Image A statue of Ebenezer Elliott is in Weston Park ...
