Globe Works, Industrial heritage building in Kelham Island, Sheffield, England
Globe Works features a Classical Revival facade constructed from coarse square stone and brick, with an ornate entrance and large windows across multiple floors.
Built as the first purpose-designed cutlery factory in the world, Globe Works established itself as a center for steel manufacturing in pre-Bessemer industrial Sheffield.
The Grade II* listed structure stands as a testament to Sheffield's industrial legacy, representing the early development of integrated manufacturing processes in England.
The building now functions as a business center offering office spaces ranging from 279 to 3,036 square feet, with flexible leasing terms and conference facilities.
The complex includes the original owner's residence integrated into the factory design, demonstrating an early example of combined industrial and residential architecture.
