Dilley & Sons Warehouse
Road access to this building is from Effingham Road; but it obviously used to have access by water too. It is grade 2 listed (List Entry Number 1270724). From the list description, it was originally built for the Firth family, steel makers, and used for the storage of bar iron from Sweden before it was processed in the cementation and crucible works. It is said to be the sole survivor of this type of warehouse in Sheffield.

The Tinsley Canal
The canal just cuts across the north west corner of this gridsquare between Lumley Street and Effingham Road. The completion of the canal in 1819 realised a long-held ambition to connect Sheffield with the rivers Trent and Humber but as with many of the canal systems, its viability was quickly threatened by the arrival of the railways. Commercial traffic did however continue to operate on the canal until as late as the early 1970s.
