Building with blind arches
An aerial view shows that the brickwork alongside the canal is now only a facade, in front of a metal-roofed building (the roof can just be seen in this view). It has at some time had a small jetty or loading point on the canal.
Sheffield and Tinsley Canal

The Sheffield and Tinsley Canal was opened in 1814 to carry boats between the navigable River Don at Tinsley and a new basin close to the heart of Sheffield. Before this date, goods had to be carried over poor roads to Tinsley Wharf on the River Don. LinkExternal link
