O
Rýchle fakty: 12 000-tonový motor River Don Engine, postavený v roku 1905, dokázal poháňať celú oceliareň a stále funguje pri ukážkach s 11 otáčkami za minútu. Kelham Island leží na umelom ostrove vytvorenom v 12. storočí na pohon mlyna na obilie, ktorý sa neskôr stal srdcom priemyselnej revolúcie v Sheffielde.
Zaujímavosti: Ukážka motora River Don Engine je čisté divadlo: 12 000 ton viktoriánskej techniky buráca do života a otriasa podlahou pod vašimi nohami. Môžete stáť dosť blízko na to, aby ste cítili teplo a cítili vôňu oleja, keď sa valí vpred a cúva s ohromujúcou silou.
Insiderské tipy
- 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.
