Abstract
Work undertaken on the former site of the Sheffield Assay Office uncovered structural remains relating to the Portobello Cutlery Works which traded from the mid-nineteenth century as Francis Newton and Sons. A neighbouring block of court housing, cleared, along with the factory, in the second quarter of the twentieth century, was also investigated. As a result of this work a wide-ranging body of cartographic, documentary and excavated evidence has helped build a cohesive picture of the cutlery works and the workers housing during their lifespan.
