Does anyone know what happened to Belle View House that stood on the Carbrook Rec ground before the rec was created?

 

It was the home of the Terry family who owned the land.

 

Help appreciated. PopT

If you want to get better acquainted with Thurley Place, Terry Street and the Rec I suggest you read 'Once Round the Lump' by Ann Sapcote which is available at all Sheffield Libraries.

 

This will bring back many forgotten memories of the old Attercliffe Common and its characters.

 

My family mainly lived on Clifton Street, Surbiton Street and Butty's lump which was where my Grandfather was born in 1865.

There were two entrances to the rec, one on Terry Street and one on Blaco Road. Which ran from the top of Amberley Road and across the tops of Berkley Road and Belmore Road. Thurley Place was the first road on the right going down Belmore Road from Blaco Road to Attercliffe common

You had to be 12 or under to use the playground euipment at the Carbrook Rec. There was also a crown bowling green and tennis courts. You could hire bowls and racquets. Spent many happy hours there as a kid.
