This cutler was a spring knife maker (born in about 1798), who worked at Wharncliffe Side (where he was born) until the 1850s, when he moved to Pea Croft. He was based at 85 Pea Croft and was probably related to John Lingard at No. 83. Robert Lingard Sen., ‘late of Peacroft’, died on 27 November 1866, aged 68, at Oughtibridge ‘after a long illness’. He was buried in St Nicholas’s churchyard in Bradfield. His son, Robert, was also a spring knife maker. By 1871, he was a cutler/publican at the Travellers’ Inn, Wharncliffe Side. By 1881, he was living in Radford Place in Sheffield and working as a spring knife cutler. He died there on 25 February 1890, leaving £378.
