Brightholmlee is a small rural hamlet situated within the City of Sheffield in England. It is located 6.2 miles (10 km) north-west of the city centre and one km west of Wharncliffe Side within Bradfield Parish. Previously a farming community, it consist of four farmsteads, Manor Farm, Old Hall Farm, High Lea Farm and Lee Farm. It is now almost entirely residential with the last working farm being sold for development in 2013. ==History== The name Brightholmlee originates from the Old English language, ''“Bright”'' is probably a modern derivation of an Anglo Saxon personal name, such as Brihtric or Beorhtweald, ''“holm”'' indicates land surrounded partly by streams, while ''“lee”'' means woodland glade. The earliest recorded reference to the hamlet were documented in 1309 and 1314 when Ralph de Brightomlee witnessed deeds at Westmondhalgh and Wigtwizzle. Ralph died in 1335 and his son John inherited lands in Westmondhalgh and Onesacre, after 1345 nothing more is heard of this family. Other documents indicate that Brightholmlee originated at the beginning of the 13th century.〔''"Historic Hallamshire"'', David Hey, Landmark Collectors Library, ISBN 1 84306 049 3, page 72, Gives historical details.〕 The hamlet is split into two by an old packhorse route called Townfield Road which comes up from the south and continues onto Bolsterstone, it is generally accepted that the houses on the uphill side of the track are several hundred years older than those below. The two oldest buildings in the hamlet are High Lea Farm and Old Hall Farm, both of which date from the 17th century and with the exception of one modern house (Lea Croft) all present day buildings in the hamlet were shown on the 1851 OS map.〔''"Wharncliffe & Oughtibridge Past"'', Andrew Crofts, DS Publishing, ISBN 0 9546769 1 2, pages 81 - 83, Gives historical and architectural details.〕
