Sharrow Mills, Historic mill building in Sharrow Vale, Sheffield, England
The industrial complex features a collection of seven listed structures organized around a central courtyard with a prominent brick-built manager's house.
The site originated as a cutlers wheel owned by the Duke of Norfolk in 1581, before Thomas Wilson began renting the mill in 1737.
The mill represents Sheffield's industrial evolution, transitioning from blade shear manufacturing to snuff production under the Wilson family management.
The mill maintains operational capacity using both water power and electrical systems to continue snuff production in modern times.
Following a devastating fire in 1757, the mill's reconstruction prompted a national collection due to its significance for tax revenue.
