 In 1838 it was sold again to John Rodgers, the owner of a well-known local cutlery firm.Rodgers renamed his residence Hillsborough Hall as he thought this better reflected the property's significance.Between 1852 and 1860 the Hall was occupied by the family of Edward Bury (1794-1858), the pioneer locomotive builder and part founder of the Sheffield steel firm of Bedford, Burys & Co. A plaque by the front door of the present-day building commemorates the Bury family's residency.
