tozzin Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 I think the answer lies in post #5. The Lyceum is the pub and it was a gem with its glazed brick facade, plum coloured if I remember right, I did go in a few times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tozzin Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Same buildings on the left in this photo, but viewed from the other side of Pond Hill On looking at this picture the building on the left is a Hay & Straw dealer, although the buildings structure looks like a pub, it's resembles a shop with goods stacked in the window.

The info is confusing on the picturesheffield image, the shop on the left is the grocers, the Hay & Straw dealer is on the right. http://www.picturesheffield.com/frontend.php?keywords=Ref_No_increment;EQUALS;s18722&pos=24&action=zoom&id=21289 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boginspro Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Name the Tennants pub? 1234.jpg I can't quite get the hang of this photograph, can you tell me what road the bus is coming out of. I wish I could see the rest of the bus, could it be a Sheffield gear less bus, even a Leyland Titanic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
