Disused industrial premises - Doncaster St, Sheffield 3
The street is named, not after the Yorkshire town of that name, but after a steel entrepreneur called Daniel Doncaster.
Doncasters was originally founded in 1778, when Daniel Doncaster established an operation in this industrial area of Sheffield to apply the crucible steel-making process to the manufacture of hand tools. Daniel Doncaster obtained his trade mark in 1778 making it one of the world’s oldest.

Snow Lane viewed from Scotland Street. There still appears to be quite a lot of small metalworking shops in this particular area. The ridge above Neepsend makes the background.
