Sheffield

Dearing House, 1 Young St, Sheffield S1 4UP.

Corner of Moore Street and Young Street.

The flamboyant entrance with its elaborate terracotta front.

Built in 1908 for Joseph Pickering and Sons as a box making factory. The designers, C & C.M.E Hadfield, has been preserved and now fronts a routine 1990s office block.

Historic Sheffield firm forced to pack up after 185 years.

But now, after 185 years trading, Joseph Pickering and Sons packaging company in Little London Road, Sheffield, has gone bust - another victim of the credit crunch sweeping Britain.

The business was founded in 1824, originally as a polishing firm set up by Joseph Pickering.

Over the years the company diversified into packaging, ending its life as manufacturer of items such as cases, cartons, flatpacks and corrugated boxes.

The news has spelt the end of the road for the company's 42 employees - the cause of enormous frustration for managing director Robin Batchelor.
