Teave
Kiired faktid: 12 000-tonnine River Doni masin, ehitatud 1905. aastal, suutis käitada tervet terasetehast ja töötab endiselt demonstratsioonidel 11 pöördega minutis. Kelhami saar asub 12. sajandil loodud tehissaarel, mis rajati villaveski käitamiseks ja millest sai hiljem Sheffieldi tööstusrevolutsiooni süda.
Esiletõstmised: River Doni masina demonstratsioon on puhas teater: 12 000 tonni viktoriaanlikku masinat müristab ellu, raputades põrandat jalge all. Saad seista piisavalt lähedal, et tunda kuumust ja haista õli, kui see veereb edasi ja tagasi hingematva jõuga.
Sisekujunduse nõuanded
- Stand near the front during the River Don Engine demo to feel the heat and vibration, but cover your ears, it's genuinely loud.
- The Little Mesters workshop area upstairs shows actual craftspeople at work, check the board for live demo times.
- Combine your visit with the nearby Abbeydale Industrial Hamlet for a full day of Sheffield's industrial history.
- The cafe does a decent sandwich, but the Kelham Island neighborhood has several excellent craft breweries for post-visit pints.
