Cllr Ben Miskell Julia Armstrong We were delighted to be added to the South Yorkshire Local Heritage List back in August 2022 when there were far fewer entries than there are now. You can find our entry here: local-heritage-list.org.uk/south-yorkshir…
The three older, 19th Century, stones are from SheffieldGenCemetery, but they are now in #Crookes Cemetery (which opened in 1909), probably retrieved when parts of the General Cemetery were cleared in 1980. (The fourth, more recent, stone is unreadable) #SheffieldBurialGrounds

Thank you to everyone who came to Wardsend Cemetery Heritage Park on such a beautiful afternoon for The Riot Tour. Dappled summer light contrasted with the true tale of dark deeds and scandal. Thanks to Lynne, Malc and Angela for their help and Malc for the photos #cemeteries #Sheffield #Riot
