Abstract: |
This project comprises a heritage statement for Riverdale House, Graham Road, Sheffield, National Grid Reference: SK 32007 85964. It assesses the heritage significance of the site and any potential impacts arising from its proposed conversion to residential use. The site encompasses Riverdale House and its associated Coach House, the core buildings of a c..1871 high status villa built for Charles Henry Firth, the son of an influential Sheffield steel magnate and a notable industrialist and philanthropist in his own right. Alterations to elements of the interior circulation of the building and internal details; the loss of its grounds; and separation of its lodge and former ancillary buildings have negatively affected the significance of the property. The building is a Grade II Listed Building of national heritage significance, notable in the quality of its architecture, craftsmanship of its detailing, general survival of elements of its interior, and its association with regionally important individuals. The building also makes a positive contribution to the character and appearance of the Ranmoor Conservation Area. |
