Intake Sheffield Any history

Recommended Posts

I was born and grew up on the Manor Estate. My paternal grandparents, who died before I started school, (I'm 71) lived in Foxwood Road, he was employed on a local farm nicknamed 'Fockys'? Farm, maybe the proper name was Foxes Farm and later roads named after it? I was too young to remember my grandparents but my older brother does (he's 82) and tonight he identified their place on Google Street View. I remember as a nipper being tickled when my dad said "Fockey's farm"!
