Sharrow Mills, a snuff factory on the Porter Brook.

Key Information

Sharrow is a suburb of Sheffield located directly southwest of Sheffield city centre. The district lies within the Nether Edge and Sharrow ward of the city.

The inner city area of Sharrow situated around London Road is distinct from the more leafy suburbs of Sharrow Head, and Sharrow Vale.

Sharrow Ward's back to back terraced housing in Little Sheffield was redeveloped in the 1970s to provide modern, high density accommodation for the area's working class population.

With the economic resurgence of Sheffield in the late 1990s, Sharrow has benefited from considerable inward investment both in improved housing stock and through development of local initiatives such as the small business enterprise unit at Sheffield United F.C.'s Bramall Lane ground in nearby Highfield.

Until June 2004 Sharrow was also the name given to one of Sheffield's electoral wards which included Sharrow proper and a number of surrounding districts. This diverse ward contained 17,897 people in the 2001 UK Census subdivided as follows:

  • White: 69.0%
  • Asian: 16.3%
  • Black: 7.5%
  • Chinese or other: 4.2%
  • Mixed: 3.0%

This diversity is celebrated by some with the Sharrow Festival, a multi-cultural, multi-arts event showcasing local talent and fostering a spirit of pride in the local community. The annual Sharrow Lantern Carnival is the other cultural highlight in the area, and is held in April.

History

[edit]

Sharrow was urbanized between 1830 and 1850 when Little Sheffield, a village and adjunct to the main town of Sheffield was redeveloped to cope with the rapidly increasing growth in population. Separated from Sheffield town by the "uninhabited, barren, gorse-covered, Sheffield Moor".[1] Industry here was based on water-power provided by Porter Brook with water-wheels at Sharrow Mill (Sharrow Vale Road), Sharrow Forge (Napier Street), and Bennetts’ Wheel (Vulcan Works). The latter two mill-dams and Broomhall Cornmill dam off Ecclesall Road were drained and filled-in around 1870 providing land for houses, schools, and new industries.

The Parish Church of St Mary's, Bramall Lane, was built in 1826 with the help of a government grant to provide churches for "impoverished industrial workers". Originally a Chapel of Ease to Sheffield Cathedral standing in open fields, 22 years later, in 1848, St Mary's became a parish in its own right. Sharrow and St Mary's was part of Poor Law Union (PLU)/Reg. District of Ecclesall Bierlow.

In 1836 the General Cemetery was opened in Sharrow on the site of a former stone quarry. Lying between Cemetery Road, which runs from Sharrow Head to the bottom of The Moor, and Sharrow Brook.

Bramall Lane was named after the Bramall family, file and graver manufacturers. The Bramalls owned "The Old White House" on the corner of Bramall Lane and Cherry Street.

Physical features

Sharrow's topography is characterized by hilly terrain that rises from the southwestern edge of , with elevations increasing towards the southwest. The area features undulating slopes, particularly prominent at Sharrow Head, a key elevated nodal point where roads converge and offer views over the surrounding valleys. This hilly landscape, part of the broader eastern foothills of the , influences local drainage patterns and creates a varied defined by steep gradients and wooded inclines. The Porter Brook, a significant watercourse, flows through Sharrow, originating in the upper reaches of the Porter near Endcliffe Woods and descending eastward to join the River Sheaf in Sheffield's . This stream, approximately 8 km (5 miles) long overall, traverses the area via a narrow, steep-sided , historically channeling water that powered local mills during the industrial era. Its path through Sharrow includes sections culverted under urban streets but visible in green corridors, contributing to the area's natural and flood-prone lowlands. Sharrow's urban layout blends dense inner-city development with more spacious suburban elements, reflecting its position as a transitional zone from central .

In Sharrow Vale, this intermingles with small-scale retail, maintaining a cohesive 19th-century aesthetic.

History

Early settlement

The area now known as Sharrow formed part of the ancient woodlands and agricultural lands within the broader parish of during pre-urban times, characterized by scattered farmsteads and open fields amid the Porter Valley. These lands were typical of the rural landscape, supporting mixed farming and forestry activities near the Porter Brook, a that facilitated early water-dependent uses. Adjacent to Sharrow lay the small village of Little Sheffield, an agricultural hamlet that served as an adjunct to the main town of until its incorporation in the mid-19th century. The name "Sharrow" derives from scearu, meaning a "division" or "boundary," reflecting its position as a shared or divided portion of land, possibly along estate borders or bierlows (funerary divisions). Alternative interpretations suggest "share-how," indicating a "boundary hill" or separating land shares, as proposed by philologist Walter William Skeat based on historical field names like Sharrow Moor. The earliest recorded references to the name appear in 17th-century documents, including John Harrison's 1637 Survey of the Manor of , which mentions "Sharrow Moore Feild" in the Ecclesall Bierlow area, and a 1647 deed referring to "Share Carr." Settlement in Sharrow remained sparse through the medieval and early modern periods, consisting primarily of isolated farms and small hamlets clustered along the Porter Brook for access to water and fertile valley soils. By the early 18th century, limited development emerged with the establishment of water-powered sites, such as the precursor to Sharrow Mills around 1737, though the area retained its rural character dominated by agriculture and woodland management. These hamlets supported local tenants under the manor of Sheffield, owned by the Duke of Norfolk, with land use focused on grazing, arable farming, and timber extraction from nearby ancient woods like those in the Porter Valley. A pivotal event in Sharrow's early history was the late 18th-century movement, culminating in the 1791 Enclosure Act, which consolidated fragmented open fields and across the manor, including lands in the Sharrow vicinity. This parliamentary act enclosed over 6,000 acres, reallocating strips of and waste grounds to individual owners, thereby facilitating more efficient farming but restricting commoners' access to shared resources. The resulting awards and maps, preserved in Archives, document the transformation of Sharrow's landscape from communal fields to bounded estates, setting the stage for subsequent agricultural intensification.

Industrial development

Sharrow experienced rapid between 1830 and 1850, during which it absorbed the nearby hamlet of Little , transforming from a semi-rural area into a burgeoning industrial of . This expansion was fueled by the influx of rural migrants seeking in the growing industries, contributing to a significant population increase as recorded in returns from 1841 onward. The area's development positioned Sharrow on the periphery of Sheffield's dominant steel industry, where it supported ancillary activities such as grinding and processing that complemented the city's core cutlery and metalworking sectors. Key industries in Sharrow revolved around water-powered mills situated along the Porter Brook, which harnessed the stream's flow for mechanical operations. These mills produced components and snuff, with the brook's reliable enabling efficient and machinery essential to local . The establishment of Sharrow Mill in the early marked a pivotal development, initially as a cutler's wheel site before specializing in snuff production under the Wilson family from the , with significant expansions in the to meet rising demand. By the early , Wilsons of Sharrow had become a leading snuff manufacturer, utilizing the mill's for grinding and processing tobacco, which exemplified the area's shift toward specialized . To accommodate the expanding population, essential infrastructure was constructed, including on , whose foundation stone was laid in 1826 and which was consecrated in 1830 to serve the spiritual needs of the growing working-class community. Similarly, the Sheffield General Cemetery opened in 1836 on Sharrow's hillside, providing a dedicated burial ground for the suburb's residents amid the pressures of rapid demographic growth. These developments reflected the social impacts of industrialization, including the proliferation of working-class housing in terraced rows and courts to house mill workers and their families. Legacy buildings like Sharrow Mills stand as enduring testaments to this era.

Post-industrial changes

Following the peak of Sheffield's industrial expansion in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Sharrow, as a working-class tied to the city's and sectors, experienced gradual decline due to rising international competition from cheaper imports, particularly from the and , which eroded local markets by the and . This downturn was exacerbated during the World Wars, when many Sharrow residents, predominantly male workers from the trade, were conscripted into , leading to labor shortages and a temporary shift in the local workforce toward women entering munitions and production roles to support the war effort. Bombing raids during further impacted the area, with strikes near the Botanical Gardens—adjacent to Sharrow—damaging infrastructure and Victorian housing stock as targets shifted toward nearby factories. In the 1970s, pursued ambitious programs across working-class districts like Sharrow, demolishing overcrowded Victorian terraces to make way for modern housing estates aimed at rehousing displaced residents. These council-led initiatives, part of a broader national push against , faced significant resistance from local groups such as the Sharrow Action Group (SAG), formed in 1972 to advocate for community involvement and preservation of neighborhood fabric over wholesale demolition. Ultimately, the efforts resulted in mixed outcomes, with some clearance proceeding but a pivot toward improvement schemes that retained more existing structures and integrated new low-rise estates for working-class families. Sharrow's trajectory shifted with Sheffield's broader economic resurgence in the late , driven by diversification into advanced manufacturing and services, which saw regional rise by 36% between 1997 and 2007. Proximity to the and fueled an influx of students and young professionals, boosting demand for and contributing to upgraded infrastructure in the area. In recent decades, particularly post-2000, Sharrow Vale has undergone , attracting middle-income buyers and outsiders through renovated properties and boutique developments, as documented in photographic and community studies of the area's transformation. Complementing this, community-led regeneration projects, such as the 2005 Sharrow Project and ongoing work by the Sharrow Community Forum established in 1997, have focused on empowering residents through asset-based initiatives like the "Vision for Sharrow" plan, emphasizing sustainable housing and local empowerment. Sharrow Mills continues to operate under family ownership, producing snuff as of 2025.

Demographics

The population of the Ecclesall Bierlow area, encompassing Sharrow, experienced significant growth during the early 19th century, rising from 2,352 residents in 1801 to 24,542 by 1851, driven by the broader industrial boom in Sheffield that attracted workers to the area. This rapid increase mirrored the development of local townships.
