Handsworth, Residential suburb in Sheffield, England
Handsworth covers 13 square kilometers of southeastern Sheffield with numerous small shops, industrial facilities, four churches, and five educational institutions.
The Domesday Book recorded this area as Handeswrde, forming a single manor with Whiston under the lordship of Torchil before the Norman Conquest.
The local sword dancing team performs nine-minute routines using steel swords, with eight dancers wearing military-style uniforms similar to Dragoon attire.
The suburb contains both independent stores and a major supermarket, while bus route 52 provides regular connections to Sheffield city center.
St Mary's Church, constructed around 1170 by William de Lovetot, maintains parish registers documenting local events since 1558.
