Details about the proposals to renovate Forge Dam in Sheffield. 锻造大坝提案 “Forge Dam 遗产和栖息地改善项目”是波特谷之友、谢菲尔德市议会和其他相关方的合作伙伴。其目的是修复大坝作为谢菲尔德人民的便利设施和野生动物栖息地。 我们的计划包括： 树木 从溢洪道和坝墙上清除树木和灌木。这可能不受欢迎，但我们将让公众了解情况，以便他们了解这项工作对于保护大坝结构是必要的，以便它可以再持续 250 年。 小岛 当我们进行公众咨询时，缩小岛屿的大小并移除树木，因为这是最受欢迎的选择（而不是完全移除岛屿，或保持原样）。 船 很多人对曾经在福吉坝上的划艇记忆犹新。但是，没有计划将这些作为这些提案的一部分归还。 淤泥 减少到达大坝的淤泥量，沿原始小溪路线建造“训练”墙以促进流量。还与上游的土地所有者合作。然而，该项目的主要部分，也是最昂贵的部分，将是清除目前在大坝中的淤泥，这将不得不等到资金完全筹集到。 锻造大坝工程 2021 年 1 月，理事会批准了修复建议，包括： “清除淤泥，插入一堵谨慎的墙以引导小溪越过溢洪道并解决长期存在的淤积问题，并创造一个具有各种深度的有吸引力的开放水域，一个重新配置的岛屿并在周边河岸种植为了 改善野生动物的栖息地”。 现在计划于 2021 年秋季开始实际清淤，并在中间几个月为恢复奠定了实际基础，这意味着双方签署了合作协议，FoPV 将向理事会捐赠 267,000 英镑，规格和招标发布了各种专业作品，并制定了栖息地改善计划。 5 月，任命了环境工程专家“Sanctus Ltd”。他们的团队在像我们这样的项目中拥有出色的相关经验，在 2020 年商业领袖奖中被评为最佳绿色企业，并将完成修复工作。 可以在此处下载正式的工程范围 ，以及显示Forge Dam 及其上方山谷计划 的 PDF 文件。 历史

Information about the Endcliffe Park Toad sculpture, in Sheffield. The Endcliffe Park Toad The new iron toad shortly after installation. Donations Although the new toad is now in place, we still need to raise a few more pounds to meet the cost. To make a donation to the Endcliffe Park Toad renewal project, please do so here via our secure donations page. Donate The iron toad after one week. The Endcliffe Park Toad, seen above, is a well known piece of public art located a few metres below the Cafe. The latest version was installed on 5th December 2024 after almost a year of fundraising by FoPV, and it is made of metal by a local sculptor called Jason Thompson, who has also designed and made other works of art in Sheffield such as the 'Chair' in the Rivelin Valley. This is the third toad made by Jason to sit on this base. The first toad, in 1997, was jointly funded as a celebration of nature - by the Off the Shelf Literary festival, and Sheffield Wildlife Trust. Both wooden toads eventually deteriorated, returning them to nature, each lasting about 12 years. The remains of the 2012 toad can still be seen beside the holly bush beside the river. Reflecting the original heritage, the current toad sits on the open pages of a book, as with the previous two wooden toads of 1997 and 2012. Sculptor Jason Thomson, and Glyn Mansell of FoPV, visited Greystones Primary School and talked to pupils in Y2 and Y5 about the Toad project. The pupils were fascinated and later produced art and written work which was displayed in school and the Tropical Pavilion at the Botanical Gardens one Saturday in September 2024 . A selection of this work is inscribed onto the new ‘pages’ supporting the metal 2024 toad, some of which can be seen in the pictures below. The Watch We are often asked about the watch, so we asked Jason to explain. "It’s about time and the frozen nature of sculpture as the world changes around it. The new iron toad , if left alone, could last for ten or twenty thousand years compared to 12 to 15 years for his two wooden incarnations. The frog Prince of fairy tales also comes into it, but as he’s a common toad (Bufo Bufo ) maybe a nice watch is preferable?" Close-ups of the books

Information about Bingham park in Sheffield. Part of the FoPV area. Bingham Park Bingham Park is owned by Sheffield City Council and is a grassy and wooded area just west of Endcliffe Park. The higher parts have views across the valley to Ranmoor. The Park is next door to Whitley Woods where Shepherd Wheel can be found. The park also has tennis courts, a bowling green, plus an Astroturf court commonly used by local footballers. Original Owners In the mid 19th century, the land we now know as Bingham Park was owned by Robert Younge of Greystones Hall who bequeathed it in his will of 1875 to his nephew, Francis Otter of Ranby Hall, Wragby. Sir John Bingham and his wife, Maria, had a good view of the wooded hillside from their home across the valley, next to Ranmoor Church. One day, whilst looking out of their window, Sir John said to his wife, “Would you like a very fine set of jewels or would you prefer to give that beautiful gem over there to the children of Sheffield?” Lady Bingham answered that she would rather Sheffield had the jewel and so Sir John bought the 11 acres of land and in September 1911, at the opening ceremony of the park, he handed over the deeds to Sheffield’s Lord Mayor. Sports Whiteley Wood Bowling Club was formed in 1910 and had one small flat green down at the bottom of the hill. The 2 greens you can see today half way up the hill were laid out in 1914 and 1915 which was when the old pavilion was built and opened by the then president, Sir john Bingham. The current pavilion was opened on April 22nd 1972 by the then Lord Mayor of Sheffield, Alderman Hebblethwaite. The land at the top of the hill was bought by the Council in 1912 to link Whiteley Woods with Bingham Park. The golf course is marked on the 1935 map and it is still possible to see where the greens were. Photos of the area in 1950 also show allotment plots here and very few trees. Remains Further down in what is now a wooded area below Bingham Park Road is an octagonal concrete base above the path. This was the base for a shelter, a simple wooden structure, like a summer house, painted royal blue. It was built when the land in front of it was open and before the trees blocked the view of John Bingham’s house, next door to Ranmoor Church. The allotments behind the houses on Rustlings Road have been here since 1905 when the previous site, between Hunters Bar and Psalter Lane, was needed for building. On the southern side of the allotments lies an area of ancient oak woodland. Over 400 years old, this is an important wildlife habitat where it is possible to hear woodpeckers and enjoy swathes of bluebells and wood anemones. Restoration Works The Bingham Park Community Group was set up in November 2016 to encourage the community to take an active part in the redevelopment of facilities in the Park. The area had declined and needed major work to improve the facilities. With help from FoPV, funds were raised to repair walls and resurface one of the old tennis courts. Sheffield City Council in conjunction with the Lawn Tennis Association provided a couple of pay to play tennis courts which are very popular. The AstroTurf court has been repaired and some of the old tennis court areas have been landscaped, and new benches installed around the park. Work continues to develop the remaining tennis courts and a netball and basketball court are being considered. If you would like to help the Bingham Park Community Group please let us know. Bingham Park Community Group (BPCG) Sadly parts of Bingham Park have seen better days and we are supporting a small group of enthusiastic residents of this area with plans to renovate and upgrade parts of the Park. Bingham Park Community Group wants to raise funds to improve the facilities in Bingham Park (including the football and tennis courts, bowling green, golf course and surrounding green areas). For the latest updates plese see below. If you would like to get involved in helping with these renovations please let us know via the Contact us link below. The group also has an active Facebook page - search for ‘Bingham Park Community Group’.

Donate Bingham Park Community Group (BPCG) is collaborating with Friends of Porter Valley (FoPV) and Sheffield Parks Department to enhance Bingham Park's facilities. The 3 lower courts ( 1-2-3) next to the 2 new Pay to Play Tennis courts were in very bad condition. Court 3; Fundraising started in 2019 and court 3 was resurfaced and walls repaired, and fencing was provided on 2 sides in 2024. Court 1; In 2022, a Basketball/Netball court was built through fundraising from donations, grants, and crowdfunding. The posts can be rotated for both sports, and it has proved it popular and is free to access. Court 2; This saw a second Basketball court constructed in 2023. Adjacent to the basketball courts, two picnic tables have been installed. Additionally, a couple of park benches offering exceptional views of Ranmoor are situated near the courts. Children’s Adventure Trail. This trail is constructed of timber at the top of the park. The Trail was financed by Loadhog, a Sheffield firm, with some additional funds from FoPV in February 2024. Fruit Trees. In February 2025, 30 fruit trees, including greengage, apple, pear, and plum, were planted near the tennis courts. Over 80 community volunteers, including children, families, and adults, participated. The Local Area Committee funded the project. Pétanque/ Boules. Plans are underway to build a Pétanque Court at Bingham Park's ‘old’ bowling green. Funding has been provided by J.G Graves, Sheffield Town Trust, Co-op Ecclesall Road, Loadhog, and the Duck Race, with additional support from FoPV and individual donors. Skateboard Park This project is in its early stages. More details will be provided later. We are keen to do more for local teenagers - encouraging them to make more use of the facilities.Bingham Park Community Group will continue to improve the attractiveness of this piece of land after years of neglect. We meet every three months and are always on the look out for new members/volunteers. Find us on Facebook (search ‘Bingham Park Community Group’) and get updates about meetings and events.

Information about Porter Clough in Sheffield. Part of the FoPV area. Porter Clough Crossing Woodcliffe at Carr Bridge, close to the confluence of the river Porter and the May Brook, a path enters the Porter Clough section of the Porter Valley. A stone near the entrance records the gift of the land to the city by the J G Graves Trust in 1938. To the right is a small hamlet, Carr Houses, typical of the settlements in this part of the valley. The original, left-hand end of the terrace dates back to 1675 and in 1707 was a small public house. As you walk up the path, across the fields to the right are a cluster of buildings on the site of the former Fulwood Corn Mills, the highest water mills in the valley. The lower mill was demolished around 1950 and both the dams filled in. However, the main buildings of the upper mill are still occupied. It was at this mill that buttons and snuff boxes, produced lower down the valley at the works of Thomas Boulsover, were given their final buffing and polishing. After crossing Mark Lane, the main path continues uphill and is easy to miss as it runs parallel to Clough Lane. It closely follows the course of the Porter Brook as it crosses to either side a couple of times, as the gradient begins to increase. The Waterfall Known affectionately as The Porter Falls, this is the only natural waterfall on the river. At only four metres high they can be a spectacular sight after heavy rain. A small bridge across the brook bears a plaque in memory of Oliver Gilbert, a renowned ecologist and Friend of the Porter Valley who inspired the restoration of the bridge. Jacobs Ladder Not far above the Falls, and to the left of Clough Lane, is a very steep path straight up the hillside known as Jacob’s Ladder. This was once the site of a ski lift operated by the Sheffield Ski Club and the slope is still a popular place for winter sports. From here, the main walk leaves Clough Lane and enters a deep wooded ravine containing many beech trees. The path becomes narrow with very steep, dramatic sides as it reaches its steepest gradient. The surrounding landscape is rural in character and the clough itself is informal, with natural woodland along what is the narrowest section of the valley. Hares can be seen throughout the clough, and birds of prey such as kestrel, buzzards and sparrow hawk are regularly spotted as are crows, rooks and ravens. Source of the Porter At the top, on Fulwood Lane there is a Toposcope, or orientation cairn, as shown at the top of this page. Built in 2005 and funded by local Rotary Clubs, it indicates the direction and distance to notable features which can be seen on a clear day. Across the road the path continues through the open fields to the old Brown Edge Quarries which were well known for producing high quality sandstone roofing slates. The source of the Porter is beyond the quarry where a boundary fence marks the start of Hallam Moors, a sphagnum bog on the watershed above Ringinglow. A wooden footbridge gives access to a gate that leads you onto Rud Hill where you can enjoy panoramic views back down the valley.
