The old bankers house was built in 1728 and the date is on the hopper on the right hand side of the frontage. It is believed to be the oldest brick built house in Sheffield. St Peter's Close is worth a short explore. Immediately on the right as you enter is a former door to the old bank and a little further on lies the small, old, water works pavement feature that is my avatar on here, and which I think is rather lovely1 point

The road line appears to be the same so I would suggest the front part of the building was removed to allow the footpath to be made up to a normal width.1 point

The Victoria Hotel pub on Langsett Road also known as The Victoria Vaults. Victoria Vaults (formerly Victoria Hotel), No. 327 Langsett Road at the junction with Woodland Street, next to the old Toll Bar House Demolilshed in the early 1970's for a road widening scheme (in the end that space wasn't affected at all) and now just a patch of grass!

I wrote an article on pubs and I indicated that Wrekin Pub was indeed the one in the photo, all my research pointed to it, with entries and names in local directories.1 point

I met my wife in the Elephant, when we were a bit skint on a Thursday, the landlady put music on the juke box for us knowing we would feed it when we got paid on a Friday, plus Saturday and Sunday. It was a cracking pub and to demolish it for the sake of a Halfords store was just criminal.1 point
