Former Bell Hagg Inn, Manchester Road, Sheffield
A photograph taken from near The Rivelin Hotel, Roscoe Bank (< road name) with a view of the rear of the former Bell Hagg Inn on the northern side of the A57 (the Sheffield to Manchester Road). The pub finally closed in 2005 and has now been converted into a seven-bedroom family home. It is believed that the original building was erected in 1832 as a five-storey house for a certain Dr Hodgeson who had built it as a folly to antagonise the Vicar of Stannington after the incumbent turned down his offer of a generous donation because Hodgeson had made much of his fortune from gambling. Before becoming a pub the building was used as a tea room by workers associated with a former quarry on the opposite of its front elevation (that is now occupied by the Valleyside Garden Centre), and also by travellers between these two northern cities. The houses in the background are situated in Moorbank Court, Crosspool.

Mandarin duck in The Rivelin Valley
Spotted in Hind Wheel mill dam. The first mandarins were imported to Britain in the mid-18th century, but it wasn't until the 1930s that escapees from wildfowl collections started breeding here. Now it is estimated that our wild population may be around 7000.
