Prior to the buildings which were erected in the latter eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, Broomhill was known as "Crooks Moor. Sheffield itself was a small town with a population of fewer than 10, people. West Bar marked the western edge of the town and beyond that was just moors and common land. Crooks or Crookes, as it is now recognised itself was a small village quite separate from the town. In a race course, known as The Crooks Moor Race Course, was established in an attempt by the Town Trustees a then equivalent to a Town Council to divert the public's attention from more blood-thirsty pastimes such as bear baiting, cock-fighting and dog fights although the first officially recorded races were not until The course was one and a third miles long, and was a rough track wide enough for about 5 horses, with small bridges to cross streams.
Races were run on 3 consecutive days a year in late May. According to a poem published by James Wills it was:. Grandstand and starting post fenced round with rail. The site of the old grandstand is marked by the aptly named residence 'Stand House Lodge' on Fulwood Road. The races were only discontinued when the commons of Ecclesall Bierlow were enclosed between and Approximate route of the location of the Crooks Moor Race Course on a modern map.
Starting Point. Finishing Post. As the race course was gradually dismantled and the grandstand taken down towards the end of the eighteenth century, only a sparse scattering of buildings existed in what was soon to become one of Sheffield's first major suburbs. There were a few houses within this area, some of them encroachments on the common land, and a huddle of cottages to the east of the present Botanical Gardens still yet to be created , including an inn "The Ball in the Tree" which was demolished in One of the first houses of note built during this time , to be precise belonged to William Newbould.
It was situated on land to the east of Newbould Lane. He named the house "Broomhill", for the simple reason that it was the first house above Broomhall, and was on a hill. Not so long afterwards, the suburb was to become known as 'Broomhill. With the advent of a new century, Broomhill began to develop into an important location in Sheffield.
Further buildings were completed, including several large houses with considerable grounds and gardens to which the clean air and expansive wooded areas and moorlands presented the perfect setting away from the industrialised town centre. These larger properties were populated by the town's Sheffield did not obtain a City Charter until wealthier residents, such as factory owners, steel magnates, cutlery manufacturers and doctors.
The growth of Broomhill became much more rapid when the turnpike road to Glossop accessed via Manchester Road was opened in This was to become a very busy route for trade into and out of the town.
Terraces and larger houses followed the construction of the road, with the first back-to-back houses being built on Peel Street in Botanical Gardens, Broomhill. As the area became more populated, shops opened along the main roads. In the same decade, sites of real architectural and cultural significance to the area were constructed. The Botanical Gardens off Clarkhouse Road , designed by Robert Marnock and initiated in , were originally intended solely for the recreation and education of the Sheffield Botanical and Horticultural Society.
But in , the Gardens were opened to a paying public. Perhaps the Garden's most famous, and from a present-day perspective, controversial feature is the Bear Pit. It is recognised as the finest surviving example in the UK, and it too shares Grade II listed status with the impressive glass pavilions. The Gardens are still a popular destination today, and regularly host concerts and events. Whilst growth in the area was now steady, the 's were times of depression.
More rapid growth resumed in the 's, when the land along and above Fulwood Road was developed. Most of the former household names in the steel and cutlery industry now either lived in or passed through Broomhill, as did many founders of the stores in town, brewers, solicitors and medical practitioners. There was now a substantial population of artisans and small shopkeepers to service the growing community.
As the suburb, which had really truly gained it's identity in the Victorian era, approached the end of the nineteenth century, Broomhill had established probably the most diverse selection of shops and businesses in the area.
As the population rapidly increased, so too did the need for comprehensive services, local amenities and educational establishments. St Mark's Church originally founded as an Iron Church to serve the expanding suburb in re-established itself in a more permanent guise in as a fine stone neo-Gothic building designed by W H Crossland. The Church still stands today, but in a third incarnation after the building.
Only the tower and spire survived. For 23 years, services were held in the Church Hall. Loves adventure through climbing and mountain exploration. Find more on GetOutside.
