I was born at 27 Parkwood Road shown on this photo and lived there till 1934.My grandparents lived at no.15 and aunt at no 32.On the 13th Dec.1940 in the Sheffield Blitz, all the even nos were totally gutted by fire bombs dropped to light up the target followed by a landmine on No 15 which wiped out half the street leaving the last half to be pulled down later.

The good news is that in 2009 an action committee was formed to develop the whole of Parkwood as a country park as big as the city centre just a mile or two away.

Gasometers like these were a common feature of the landscape. They originally held manufactured town gas and later natural gas. Gas was used to light and then power industrial buildings and homes from the 1820s.
