Crookes

Crookes is a suburb of the City of Sheffield, England, about 1.5 miles (2.4 km) west of the city centre. It borders Broomhill to the south, Walkley and Crookesmoor to the east and open countryside around the River Rivelin to the north. The suburb is said to derive its name from the Old Norse "Krkor" which means a nook or corner of land.
