Jeffcock Memorial Fountain - Service of Dedication
Wednesday 17th February 2010

A replica of the finial on the top of the Memorial (the original having been lost) has been replaced.
For more information on this memorial see: http://public-art.shu.ac.uk/sheffield/unk329.html

Extract from the Parish Magazine for March 2010.
The Jeffcock memorial fountain was moved from Ecclesfield Park to the green in the village by the
church in 2008. On 17th February, the memorial was re-dedicated in a short service conducted by
Canon Tricia Impey. The Lord Mayor of Sheffield, Graham Oxley, MP Angela Smith, several
members of the Jeffcock family and the Ecclesfield Feoffees were in attendance. The monument is
made of polished black granite with decorative pink granite with four inscriptions bearing the
names and dates of members of the Jeffcock family. It was first dedicated in 1903 when it was
positioned in the alcove in the church wall.

The Jeffcocks are an old mining family from Handsworth, near Sheffield. William Jeffcock was the
1st Mayor of Sheffield in 1843, and his brother John married Catherine Parkyn, the Lady of the
Manor of Darley. They lived in Cowley Manor near Chapeltown. Their son Parkin, a mining
engineer, is well remembered for his selfless attempt to save miners in the Oaks Colliery Disaster in
1866, at the cost of his own life. St. Saviour’s Church in Mortomley was erected in his memory.
Today there are Jeffcocks living and working in the Isle of Man, Monaco, London, Ecuador,
Ireland and France. The family still invests and works in mining projects from Mexico & Ecuador
to Azerbaijan and Georgia as well as oil and gas exploration in the Ukraine. Ecclesfield Church
also has three windows and a water trough in memory of members of the family.

Service of dedication.
