About

Upper Stannington and Loxley occupy the western fringes of Sheffield, characterised by steep, wooded valleys and elevated residential streets. The landscape is defined by the Loxley Valley, with its reservoir and the winding river, creating a distinct separation from the city's urban core. Housing is primarily a mix of post-war semis and older stone properties, set along roads that follow the contours of the hills.

The area retains a strong sense of its industrial past, linked to the historic cutlery and grinding trades that used the local water power. Remnants of old mill dams and wheel pits can still be found along the Loxley Chase, woven into the public footpaths and green spaces that follow the watercourses. Views open out across the valley towards the moors of the Peak District.
