EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Newfield Green 28942_023" captures a mesmerizing glimpse into the past. Taken in the late 1950s, it showcases a bustling shopping parade and the iconic Blackstock public house on the Gleadless Valley Housing Estate in Sheffield. The image effortlessly transports us back to an era of simpler times and vibrant community life. The aerial perspective offers a unique vantage point, allowing us to appreciate the architectural layout of this thriving neighborhood. From above, we can see rows of charming houses and flats neatly arranged around a central hub of activity – the shopping parade. This lively strip is filled with various shops that catered to the needs and desires of local residents during that time. In particular, our attention is drawn towards the Blackstock public house standing proudly amidst its surroundings. A symbol of camaraderie and social gathering, this establishment served as more than just a place for refreshments; it was an integral part of daily life for many who sought solace or companionship within its walls. Fast forward to 2017 when this photograph was taken by Dave Went under Historic England's watchful eye. While much may have changed over half a century since its original capture, there remains an undeniable sense of nostalgia embedded within these streets. It serves as both a testament to enduring architecture and as a reminder that communities evolve while still retaining their essence. Dave Went's skillful lens has allowed us to cherish this remarkable piece of history forever preserved in photographic form –
