Brooklyn Works, Industrial heritage structure in Kelham Island Quarter, Sheffield, England

Brooklyn Works features red brick construction with rendered sections, slate roofs, and twelve windows along its river side range with decorative gable elements.

Built in the mid-19th century for Alfred Beckett & Sons, the steel and file manufacturing facility endured substantial damage during the Great Sheffield Flood of 1864.

The building represents Sheffield's manufacturing legacy through its preserved industrial architecture and transformation from a steel works to modern mixed-use spaces.

The Grade II listed building now houses residential apartments and offices, accommodating various businesses including legal firms and design companies.

Original manufacturer signage remains visible on the structure, displaying decorative relief with ball finials atop the coping gable.
