hillsbayvill Posted November 20, 2009 Author Share Posted November 20, 2009 Semantics. That is Barnes Hall, regardless of where they want to describe the locality. no it isn't semantics if there is actually one in chapeltown and one in grenoside as well. and the one on bracken hill is chapeltown. I am still researching the fact there could be one in grenoside - two totally different areas of sheffield and bracken hill is most definitely chapeltown I LIVE THERE.

Greybeard Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 (edited) Only ever one Barnes Hall. Lots of photos on Picture Sheffield eg http://www.picturesheffield.com/cgi-bin/picturesheffield.pl?_cgifunction=form&_layout=picturesheffield&keyval=sheff.refno=y01767 and the address is always given as 'off Elliot lane, Chapeltown'. (OTOH if you walked due west from Barnes Hall you would be in Grenoside within five minutes ) Edited November 20, 2009 by Greybeard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

surfinjim Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Unless they are referring to Barnes Hall Cricket Club who long ago used to play in the fields on the left hand side of Bracken Hill as you come down the hill towards the Acorn.

hillsbayvill Posted November 21, 2009 Author Share Posted November 21, 2009 Hi Everyone Thanks for all our help with this. We hve been today and it is indeed Barnes Hall Farm off Bracken Hill at Burncross Chapeltown. The electoral register has it listed as Grenoside why I don't know it has never been Grenoside and I think this is where the all the confusion has been. Anyhow found exctly what I wanted by chatting to the gent who lives int he farm house. Thanks Gail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorri Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Yep the postal address is Burncross, but as far as I can remember (I used to live there) it's been referred to as being at Grenoside because Barnes Green House and the lodge are on Elliot Lane, Grenoside just across the field from the Hall The lane used to go right through between both properties.
