An oral history project created by the History Department at the University of Sheffield. The interviews were carried out by trained history students in the department. Common themes include Sheffield during World War II, local politics, youth culture and the music scene, the Miners’ Strikes and the impact of deindustrialisation on the city. A separate resource documents the history of the Walkley Action Group, a campaigning group which protested against planned slum demolition in the 1970s. A blog keeps users appraised of updates to the site.
