A development of new houses on the site of an old recreation ground. The recreation ground was used as a cricket ground in 1832. In 1833 Yorkshires inaugural first class cricket match was played at the ground. It became less used after Bramall Lane was built and became a drill hall. After this it reverted to use as a sports ground being depicted as a racing track. It is uncertain when it closed down. Prior to the cricket ground, the site consisted of fields probably enclosed in a piecemeal fashion during the disparkment of Sheffield Park. Legibility of the previous landscape is invisible.
