Social Networking; Growth of an Industrial Elite in 19th Century Sheffield – Kate Faulks

Kate Faulks acheived her PhD at the University of Sheffield. She researched historical and archaeological sources and methodologies to assess whether the Commissioner Churches were built in the early 19th century as a bulwark against revolution, dissent and ‘godlessness’. From the data, she is able to extract many other aspects of contemporary social life in Sheffield.
