STOCKSBRIDGE: Sheffield Parish #2 of 3
In the steep-sided valley of the Little Don River, below the Underbank Reservoir, we find the second parish – a town – in the City of Sheffield. This one blends into the areas of Deepcar, Bolsterstone and the eastern end of Ewden valley around Ewden village, which are also within the civil parish boundaries.
There are several ghost stories attached to the town’s bypass here, including reputed apparitions of a monk and phantom children during the road's construction. These claims were featured in a 1994 episode of the paranormal documentary series “Strange but True?”
Until the early 18th century, this was a deciduously wooded valley, running from Midhopestones at its Northwestern extremity to Deepcar at its Southeastern end. A river, originally called the Hunshelf Water and later renamed the Little Don, is responsible for this town’s name.
In 1716 John Stocks, a local farmer and landowner, occupied a fulling mill halfway along the valley where a flood plain, created by meltwater at the end of the last ice age, extended southwest from the river. Here he reputedly built a footbridge over the river, perhaps so that his workforce could reach the mill from their homes on the north side.
This originally wooden structure was named Stocks' Bridge, which has kind of stuck around. A man named Samuel Fox and the steelworks he would own in this valley would do the rest. This is STOCKSBRIDGE.

Places to see in ( Torpoint - UK )
Torpoint is a civil parish and town on the Rame Peninsula in southeast Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is situated opposite the city of Plymouth across the Hamoaze which is the tidal estuary of the River Tamar.
Torpoint is linked to Plymouth (and Devonport) by the Torpoint Ferry. The three vessels that operate the service are chain ferries – that is, they are propelled across the river by pulling themselves on fixed chains which lie across the bed of the river. The journey takes about seven minutes.
It is said that Torpoint's name is derived from Tar Point, a name given because of the initial industry on the west bank of the Hamoaze. However this is actually a nickname given by workers, Torpoint meaning rocky headland. Torpoint is an eighteenth-century planned town. The grid-based design for the town was commissioned by Reginald Pole Carew in the Parish of Antony in 1774. His family continue to have a strong influence in the area, having become the Carew Poles in the twentieth century, and still reside at their family seat, Antony House.
In 1796 Torpoint was the setting for a shooting battle between the crew of a government vessel, the Viper, and a large party of armed liquor smugglers, in which one person was killed and five people seriously wounded. Torpoint has a Non-League football club Torpoint Athletic F.C. who play at The Mill.
( Torpoint - UK ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting Torpoint . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Torpoint - UK

Holmfirth to the M1 - 4K Scenic Drive - Hade Edge, Crow Edge, Langsett, Stocksbridge - DJI Pocket 2
Filmed in 4K. Enjoy a scenic drive from the charming town of Holmfirth, in West Yorkshire, up over the moors into South Yorkshire as we head towards the M1 motorway.
As we cross the River Holme bridge in Holmfirth, you can see the courtyard for Sid's Café ahead of us, a frequent filming location for the popular 1980s BBC sitcom Last of the Summer Wine.
Leaving Holmfirth we head through Hade Edge, before joining the Woodhead Pass route at Langsett and continuing on the Stocksbridge Bypass to reach the M1 motorway at junction 35a.
The driving was filmed on a beautifully sunny day in April 2022. There's no commentary, but occasional captions provide locations for the journey.

Sheffield Walk: City Centre【4K】
Located in the county of South Yorkshire, and around 160 miles north, and slightly west, of London, is the city of Sheffield. Historically it was part of the West Riding of Yorkshire up until 1974.
The name 'Sheffield' is derived from the River Sheaf. It is believed that the Anglo-Saxons formed a settlement around a field or forest clearing at the confluence of the River Sheaf and River Don.
After the Norman Conquest of 1066, Sheffield was a part of the historical county of Hallamshire, which was owned by Norman barons. In the 12th century, a wooden castle was built, which was later replaced by a stone castle in 1270. This was eventually destroyed following the Civil War in the 17th century.
In 1296 Sheffield was granted a market charter by Edward I. One year later, 'Robert the Cutler' was recorded in a tax return. This is significant as it is the earliest surviving reference to the manufacture of cutlery in Sheffield. A further reference appeared in 1387 from the Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer from The Reeve's Tale: A Sheffeld thwitel baar he in his hose ('thwitel' referring to a type of knife).
The steel industry, including cutlery manufacture, would go on to play a huge role in the growth of Sheffield. By 1600 it had become the biggest producer of cutlery outside of London. In 1624 the Company of Cutlers in Hallamshire was incorporated. Since 1638 they have been based at Cutlers' Hall opposite Sheffield Cathedral on Church Street (although the current building dates from 1832). Their aim has been to maintain the standards and quality of Sheffield manufactured cutlery and steel products and to promote the name of the city. This includes certifying products claiming to be made in Sheffield.
In the 1740s a clock maker named Benjamin Huntsman invented a way of making better quality steel called crucible steel. This involved the use of coke, derived from coal. Its higher carbon content allows temperatures hot enough to melt steel and dissolve iron. Around the same period, a technique was developed for fusing a thin sheet of silver onto a copper ingot to produce silver plating, which became known as Sheffield plate. These innovations brought about rapid growth in Sheffield during the Industrial Revolution.
In 1838 the Sheffield and Rotherham railway opened. This was the first of a number of rail connections that brought about more efficient transportation of goods to the neighbouring towns and beyond. In 1893 Sheffield was granted city status.
During both world wars, Sheffield became a producer of armaments using its existing factories. In doing so, it became a target for bombing on both occasions. In 1916 a German Zeppelin dropped bombs on Sheffield, killing 28. In 1940 the Sheffield Blitz claimed the lives of over 600 following a 4-day raid from by Luftwaffe.
In the second half of the 20th century, the steel industry went into gradual decline as a result of increased automation and competition from abroad. Thus there are a number of derelict factories dotted around the outskirts of the city. This formed the premise of the 1997 film, The Full Monty, which sees unemployed steel workers form a striptease group in order to relieve their financial burdens. The film was shot almost entirely on location in Sheffield.
In 1971 the Crucible Theatre built. It is perhaps best known for hosting the World Snooker Championship, which it has done since 1977.
In 1994 the Sheffield Supertram began operation. To this day it is an integral part of the city with regular services between Sheffield and surrounding areas including Rotherham.
Sheffield is represented by two football teams: Sheffield United, a.k.a. The Blades, and Sheffield Wednesday, a.k.a. The Owls.
Several famous musicians and bands have emerged from Sheffield over the years. These include Joe Cocker, The Human League, ABC, Heaven 17, Def Leppard, Pulp and the Arctic Monkeys.
Other famous people from Sheffield include Sean Bean, Jessica Ennis-Hill and Jamie Vardy.

UK - 60015 & 66004 on The Last Chance to Stocksbridge works, 8th April 2023
UK Railtours operated a tour from Finsbury Park to Doncaster by Class 90 electric. From there it headed to Barnetby and then via a roundabout route, through the Sheffield suburbs to Stocksbridge steel works and back.
The section from Doncaster was Top & Tailed by Class 60 number 60015 and Class 66 number 66004.
We caught the pair on both outbound and return trips at Woodhouse station near Sheffield.
I apologise for the poor zooming towards the end .... the setting sun made it very difficult to see exactly what was happening on the camera screen.

Holmfirth - Beautiful English Town in Yorkshire
Holmfirth is a beautiful English town in Yorkshire. Located in the Kirklees in West Yorkshire, Holmfirth is a town with many shops, restaurants, and beautiful landscapes. Only a few miles away from the Pennines, Holmfirth has a lot of great footpaths in the area including some along the River Holme. I walk around the town as well as check out the Last of the Summer Wine exhibition, visit a couple parks, and explore a footpath above the town with breathtaking views of the English countryside. Holmfirth is where the longest running comedy series in the world, Last of the Summer Wine, was filmed which ran from 1973-2010 which starred actors Bill Owen, Peter Sallis, and Brian Wilde.
