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.

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.

Canalside Warehouse
Or perhaps it might have been a factory. Whatever it was, it has seen better days.

Image from the towpath of the Sheffield and Tinsley Canal
The central graffiti forlornly celebrates the existence of The Blades or Sheffield United - one of the city's two professional football teams.

Canalside industry
As far as I can tell, this older brick building facing the canal is, along with the newer buildings behind, part of the site of Management Cubed Ltd, a construction company http://www.m3-ltd.com/
