I would have started you off with Ern the furn who lved on Industry Street at Walkley and was one of the the finest Sheffielders I have ever had the privilege to know. But Ern and the thousands like him who spent their days in the rolling mills, furnaces, grinding and fettling shops,buffing ,polishing and stamping factories will never have their names on a star outside the Town Hall . They have just faded away along with Sheffields Industry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
