Abstract:		 The recording was carried out to SYAS guidelines (Appendix 1). Floor plans were produced of all upstanding buildings and spaces, showing the form and location of any structural features of historic significance, such as blocked doorways, windows and fireplaces, masonry joints, ceiling beams and other changes in floor and ceiling levels, and any evidence for fixtures of significance. An external photographic record was made of all elevations of all the historic buildings, from as nearly parallel to the elevation as possible within the constraints of the site. A general external photographic record was made including a number of oblique general views of the buildings from all sides, showing their setting. An interior photographic record was made of rooms or internal spaces, to record the form, general appearance and manner of construction of each area, limited by access restrictions and health and safety requirements due to the condition of the buildings and asbestos. Photographs were be taken in RAW format with a high-resolution camera using a selection of lenses. All photographs included an appropriate scale where possible and conformed to industry best practice (Historic England 2015, Historic England 2016, CIfA 2020). The photographic record recorded the buildings in their setting, with detailed shots taken of specific architectural and structural elements. Archaeological Services WYAS was commissioned to carry out a photographic building recording in advance of the planned demolition of a series of properties on Upper Hanover Street and Hounsfield Road. Nos. 2, 4 and 6 Hounsfield Road were part of the original scope for building recording. No 2a Hounsfield Road, adjoined to 50 Upper Hanover Street, was originally omitted from the scope of the building recording but some external features were considered worthy of recording during the survey visit. The property of 50 Upper Hanover Street is of later 20th-century date and was not recorded. No. 2a appears to contain the remains of a commercial building’s frontage, perhaps being constructed at the end of the 19th century. The remainder of the building was of later 20th-century date. Nos. 2, 4 and 6 Hounsfield Road were originally constructed as a row of terraced properties and were each converted to commercial use in the 20th century. They represent the development of the Broomhill suburb in the later 19th and 20th centuries, widespread conversion to commercial use in the area and the expansion of the University of Sheffield.
