No that's the front of the Lescar, the snooker place is behind it, and Cowlishaw Road is the hill on the right going up from Sharrow Vale Road. I reckon it is from the Hallam towers. Nigel L

Yes, It is the same street but The door to Donna Hartley's fitness club was Just round the corner (opposite Dixons shop) between the top view and The Moor. It had no back door other than a fire escape because it wasn't at ground level. Donna Hartley took over the Gym which was previously known as The Gateway to Health and I used to train there in the 60's

1st on the old Rockingham Close, just off Rockingham Street (where Primark now stands): https://www.google.com/maps/@53.376801,-1.4738505,3a,75y,36.49h,81.31t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sHcjTTm0wGjZkHVqDGv_KjA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656 2nd, the other end of Rockingham Close (between China Red/the old Plug Box Office, looking at where Primark now stands): https://www.google.com/maps/@53.3765985,-1.473929,3a,37.5y,29.36h,91.42t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1siBFStLe0xdjt3DKvYbnMPQ!2e0!5s20120601T000000!7i13312!8i6656 I believe the other two are in the same area (the old Rockingham Close/now Primark — the same folding gates in the background of each shot)

I would say the shots were almost certainly taken from above the Ski Village site (around the Parkwood Springs viewing platform, Mountain Bike track area).

The guy who ran the train set up was confined to a wheelchair as I recall, the kids absolutely loved him, he was a real star, great memories.

Hello I just finished writing the code for this Watermills of Sheffield page, it's an interactive map showing all the locations of the watermills listed in the book 'The Water-Mills of Sheffield' by W.T. Miller published in 1947. Tap on a mill for its name, and tap on the name for the description from the book. https://www.g7smy.co.uk/history/watermills/ I've written it for use on a mobile phone, for when you are out and about, and on this the GPS can be used to show your location. It will also work with a desktop PC. Thanks Karl.
