		Today, Handsworth is part of the City of Sheffield - the City world famous and long renoun for its cutlers and steelmakers - in 1380, the medieval poet Geoffrey Chaucer also referred in his "Canterbury Tails" to a knife from Sheffield.
		Whilst in Handsworth, he developed the process whereby it became possible to melt down raw or "blister" steel and produce cast ingots of steel.
		It seems probable that Hunstman moved to Handsworth because he was aware of the nearby glassworks in Catcliffe where vessels were used in which the materials were melted at very high temperatures.

	Handsworth Methodist Church - Jefferson Oldfield's Testimony, May 2004 (Site not responding. Last check: )
		When I was 16, I was walking along Handsworth Road and I went past Full Gospel Church around 6:00pm, and I heard this singing in this church, I was thinking about it so next week came and I decided to go in, I felt nervous I was greeted by their stewards, Charles and Freda Astwood.
		A few years later, I left Christian Life Centre due to personal reasons, I went to Handsworth Methodist Church on Handsworth Road, so I decided to join their youth group which I love, and I also like the people who are here, I feel more at home here than at Christian Life Centre.
		I am also apart of their stewarding and hopefully in the near future, I will be committing myself more to God and hopefully I will have greater opportunity of things happening at this church.

	Compare Prices and Read Reviews on Handsworth Revolution by Steel Pulse at Epinions.com
		Handsworth Revolution was named after the band’s hometown, a suburb of Birmingham, England, and center of the British car industry (I’m envisioning the rougher part of Detroit with Rastas instead of gangbangers).
		British though they were, they shake their finger at the sceptered isle on Soldiers for its maltreatment of the world, and “Babylon” in general on the title track.
		Handsworth is by far the strongest of the trio, and placed them at the forefront of the late 70’s reggae scene.

		HANDSWORTH REVOLUTION may not appeal to fans of the band's later formula, but there is no denying the spare,surging energy of cuts like "Bad Man" and "Sound Check", with their classic reggae rhythms.
		Enough nostalgia, Steel Pulse's Handsworth Revolution has stood the test of time; smooth vocals over original dub bass representing the struggle of that era all contribute to an album which should be hailed as a reggae classic.
		Seven great reggae musicians from all over north Birmingham, ie,Lozells, Handsworth and Handsworth Wood, got together to create an unforgettable sound that is true to the roots of Jamaican reggae, unlike the over-commercialised offerings of UB40 and Aswad throught the 1980s (although both bands did strive for authenticity on their first couple of albums).

	Handsworth Golf Club, Warwickshire
		Handsworth Golf Club is a superb undulating parkland course that's only a few miles from the city centre.
		A picturesque lake runs down the right hand side of the first stretch of the fairway so be sure to keep it left and avoid an early bath.
		As you'd expect from a club this age, Handsworth is a beautifully mature course - high tree-lined avenues, attractive borders and, although the city centre is only a matter of miles away, you'd be forgiven for thinking someone had misnamed the club and you were in fact out in the middle of Worcestershire!
