Thomas Holy, a member of a very old Sheffield family of manufacturers and merchants lived at Holy Green House which stood in a large garden, with a long green lawn in front, on Sheffield Moor, between Eldon Street and Prince Street. Mr Abraham, the Principal of the Milk Street Academy, had Holy Green House for boarders and evening classes. Mr Abraham also resided here, but left in 1839. It was afterwards used by the Sisters of Notre Dame prior to their premises in Convent Walk. In 1870 it was the Ecclesall Club.
