This grant was to enable us, together with local people, to learn how to \n survey our wood for its archaeology, to carry out surveys and archive research and to \n use our findings in order to tell The Story of Gillfield Wood. We now have a free \n leaflet that summarises its history but this is our attempt to tell the fuller story – \n although we continue to explore, survey, record, research and write. We hope you \n enjoy learning about this delightful wood.","bbox":{"left":0.151388,"top":0.165326,"width":0.6958620000000001,"height":0.130385}},{"text":"INTRODUCTION","bbox":{"left":0.151388,"top":0.698983,"width":0.16090599999999997,"height":0.01578500000000005}},{"text":"Gillfield Wood, a long sinuous crescent in shape, is around 20 - 30 acres of mainly \n deciduous mixed woodland. It lies south of the parish of Totley, a fairly affluent \n suburb at the south-western edge of the city of Sheffield. Until the 1930s however, \n Totley was in Derbyshire and originally a small, poorish hamlet. It is bordered on the \n north and south by a patchwork of irregular shaped fields, mostly pasture land. Above \n it to the south is a high ridgeway connecting Sheffield, Bradway and Holmesfield to \n Killamarsh and beyond, and the ancient farmland landscape of the Cordwell Valley. \n North and west is the high gritstone moorland of The Peak District National Park, \n including the nearby Totley Moss and Big Moor with their important Bronze Age \n sites. The wood lies on the coal measures, only just across a geological border with \n the high millstone grit country.","bbox":{"left":0.151388,"top":0.731766,"width":0.6939240000000001,"height":0.17970200000000003}},{"text":"1","bbox":{"left":0.838381,"top":0.942435,"width":0.010078999999999949,"height":0.01578500000000005}}],"images_bbox":[{"left":0.151388,"top":0.312582,"width":0.696266,"height":0.369169}],"images_bbox_not_text_overlap":[{"left":0.151388,"top":0.312582,"width":0.696266,"height":0.369169}]}
