EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1958 takes us back in time to the bustling Castlefolds wholesale fruit and vegetable market on Broad Street, Sheffield. The image showcases a vibrant scene filled with an array of fresh produce and busy merchants going about their daily business. On the left side of the frame, we see Uttley and Norledge Ltd. , prominent fruit and vegetable merchants of that era. The market is abuzz with activity as traders navigate through the narrow aisles, carefully selecting the finest fruits and vegetables for their customers. Three-wheeled vehicles can be spotted scattered throughout, serving as convenient modes of transportation for these dedicated sellers. Sheffield's Castlefolds was renowned for its role in supplying high-quality produce to both local businesses and households alike. This snapshot captures not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects the rich history of this vital marketplace. Preserved by Sheffield Libraries, this original photograph allows us to glimpse into a bygone era when traditional markets were at the heart of communities. It serves as a reminder of how our ancestors worked tirelessly to provide nourishment for their families while contributing to the city's economic growth
