Plaque on the former All Saints Mission Room
On Forncett Street, just down the hill from the site of All Saints Church which was demolished in the nineteen seventies. Most of the humble houses that once stood in this area were demolished long ago and the mission room no longer serves its original purpose. Now it is an industrial unit.

All Saints Mission Room on Forncett Road, Burngreave
The stone plaque under the apex of the building's frontage tells passers-by that the building was given to the local community by steel manufacturing company T.Firth and Sons Ltd.. That must have been in the days when there was a community hereabouts. Most of the neighbouring houses were demolished long ago and the mission room was converted to industrial premises.

Homeless man's nest
On Forncett Street, Sheffield. A rather unusual bolt hole for a homeless person situated as it is in an industrial zone which must be rather lonesome and eerie at night-time.

Industrial Sheffield
The industrial east end of Sheffield. This is Forncett Street viewed towards Grimesthorpe. There are a lot of small metalworking shops in this area, however, there's also a lot open spaces which, less than 40 years ago, would have been occupied by much larger and more imposing steelworks.

Rear of industrial premises - Carlisle St, Sheffield
The shelter at ground level is for smokers - an architectural trend that may be overlooked by history.
