Shop NOT open
As can be seen from the shutters, the shop on the corner of Meadowhall and Richmond roads is NOT open, regardless of the sign on the end. Actually it looks like it's up for sale, as there is a For Sale sign at the other end.

Jordan Weir, River Don
The shot is towards the barrage across the top of Jordan Weir on the Don. It's pretty hefty because this is a navigable stretch of the Don, ENE of Tinsley. As the river skirts around the back of the big sewage works at Tinsley (anyone driving along Tinsley Viaduct on the M1 will know where I mean), the smell can be pretty ripe as indeed it was when I took this picture. Pity any boaters making the trip because there was a lot of debris.

Dredging the Don in the snow at Jordan
Three diggers carry out Environment Agency work to improve the river flow below the weir at Jordan. This is part of a strategy to lessen the chances of the Don flooding Sheffield again. The concrete wall in the river separates the Don (right) from the Blackburn Meadows sewage works outfall (left). The OS 1:50000 map, shown on Geograph calls this area Jordon, but the OS 1:25000 Explorer map and Get-a-map calls it Jordan.

The weir at Jordan Dam
Here the River Don meets the South Yorkshire Navigation or Keadby Canal - constructed at the very start of the nineteenth century to aid water transport for the area's growing steel industry.
