Re-inventing the wheel

Spaceworks overlooks a courtyard which is quite a sun trap once the clocks have changed. It also has some funny bits and bobs hanging around like these millstones. Apparently they were just hanging around and may have been in use when Little Mesters hired space in the local works.

The millstones could be quite a feature in the newly re-vamped courtyard that we are hoping to have later this year. One of our sharers is an architect and he is drafting some sketches which we will put on the blog soon. They are intended to kick start a debate about what people in the surrounding buildings would like in the courtyard. More posts on this soon.

Some new bike storage would be great ... which reminds me that our next Spaceworks bike ride is on Friday 21st at 9.30 from Bragazzis on Abbeydale Road. Arrive early and look at a Cycling Weekly (they have a subscription).

  1. We are busy preparing blank drawings of the Harland/Clifton Works courtyard for people to scribble all their ideas onto, as well as some sketches of the ideas floated so far.

    What are people's favourite Sheffield courtyards, new/old, big/small, public/private and especially old works courtyards that have been revamped?
