Adelphy Hotel

You have the spelling of the place wrong… it was ADELPHI ( as the sign) on the wall confirms. I assume this pub was in Attercliffe ….it’s many, many, years since I was in the area. There was a Cinema by the same name, in that area …my now, long deceased, aunt was a cashier there…even more years ago…

No The Adelphi was on the corner of Sycamore Street and Arundel Street opposite the Theatre Royal before that burnt down, the best pub in Sheffield. That end bit of Arundel Street was later renamed Tudor Way . It would now be under the Crucible Theatre as per map below.

We have a few posts regarding the Adelphi, here is one.   ------   https://www.sheffieldhistory.co.uk/forums/topic/198-the-adelphi-hotel/#comment-279

 

 

Yes, the pub didn’t look familiar ( and yes, it crossed my mind that it’s location had the look of The City Centre about it )…..why I was tentative with my suggestion.
It’s well over half a century since I was  pretty well acquainted with the East End  ….some places,  some now even obliterated, I still recall well but others I don’t recall, at all.
The human mind can be a wonderful thing…..but sometimes very dangerous..
