  1. SteveHB

    Cambridge Arcade

    I remember one who use to hang around the top of Dixon Lane, he marched up to me one day and stuck a Biro in my top pocket. I said "thanks" and carried on walking away from him, he quickly followed and grabbed me by the arm. So I turned round and stuck the pen in his top pocket, after that he never approached me again. lol
  2. and which is the nearest Road to Sheffield Town Centre (I use Town implying the question is historical, i.e. Victorian). There are Streets, Lanes, Walks, Gates (Waingate, Fargate), Gutters, Hills, Squares, Crofts, Greens, Foulds, Yards, Rows, Cross(es), Moors, Bridge, Pool, Shambles, Hartshead, Courts, Fields (Alsop Fields), Views, Villas, Wildebeest Boulevards (I may have made that one up), Ways, Bar, Alleys - anyone come up with any others ? Campo Lane Road does not count ! For your SheffieldHistory homework, please name one of each ... ------------------------------------------------ Homework, now there's an idea ...

    Sheffield Victoria Train Station

    According to Graham H E Twidale, in A Nostalgic Look at Sheffield trams Since 1950 (Silver Link Publshing, 1995 ISBN 1 85794 040 7) Exchange Street was taken out of use on 26th October 1957, having been used only for Lane Top via Newhall Road cars since 1948 when the Rotherham route was converted to bus. As Blonk Street remained in use until the last day of the trams, this picture must be after October 1960 as you say, bus man. Something which will be of interest can be found in Forward Magazine Issue 156, pages 27 to 33. It is all about the unveiling of the GCR War Memorial at Victoria Station. It is necessary to download the whole magazine which is a pdf file and is 4 MB in size. http://www.gcrsociety.co.uk/Forward_156_web.pdf

    'The alley' Penistone Road

    I think they must be the houses demolished in about 1930 They were very old then Picture Sheffield has some photographs of the demoliton on Cornish Street and Green Lane which would give you a good idea of the type of houses they were. Look under those names for pictures. The numbers must have been in the area around Cornish Steet and probably just past the New Inn This link shows the junction of Penistone Road Cornish Street Infirmary Road in 1950 http://www.picturesh...ff.refno=s19315 which is pretty much as I remember it. I had a school friend lived at the Royal Lancers at the end of Dixon Street and knew the area very well. My grandparents were moved out of Hoyle Street in about 1930 for demolition so I think there must have been a lot going on in that area at the time I have some Oates connections who were in that area at one time Chris
  13. Of course, the second match shown here does have a certain "fame", see the scans. The game shown was played on February 18th and not the 1st Jan and was a 1-1 draw at Hillsborough. Wednesday took the lead (via Wilkinson), United equalised under five minutes later (Partridge). The replay on Wednesday 22nd February 1928 was at Bramhall Lane was ended in a 4-1 victory for the Blades (Harry Johnson scored a hat-trick, I don't know who scored the fourth [there's a puzzle for you all], a consolation penalty was scored by Hooper. For completeness : United beat Nottingham Forest 3-0 in the sixth round (home) and in the semi-final against Huddersfield 2-2 at Old Trafford 0-0 after extra-time at Everton and United 0 - Huddersfield Town 1 at Maine Road [scorer not known to me].

    Sheffield v Glasgow

    Last week I was reading the match report from the Sheffield v Glasgow match from 9 Feb 1878 from the North British Daily Mail. It made special reference to Glasgow's passing game compared to the dribbling of the Sheffield players. Glasgow won 4-2 at Bramall Lane.

    Bruce Springsteen - Spare Parts

    There haven't been that many music concerts at Bramall Lane. Was this the one which generated complaints in The Star about the behaviour of fans (music fans not football) urinating in local residents gardens and yards due to a lack of toilet facilities at the event?

    Cobbled Streets

    I passed a good one last week but I didn't have my camera with me. I've since tried to get it on Google street view but when I get the exact spot it seems to want to print further down the road. Does anyone else have that problem? So the address is Conduit Lane on the right hand side going up Crookesmoor road near Conduit road. It also has a kind of guttering running down the middle with a grate at the bottom. Can any one get this on screen for me ?

    Gleadless - Photo Thread

    Hi MadAnnie77, Thanks for your comments about this thread, glad you like the pictures and the information it provides. When I was in Ashleigh sixth form in 1972 - 74 the old house was out of use and proped up as you describe, the sixth form common room was on the top floor at the far left hand end, nearest the pig styes and directly above the school library. One of the deputies was always complaining about the noise from the music we played at the time. We were allowed to decorate the common room and some A level art students painted a giant Union Jack on one wall, full height from skirting board to ceiling, much to the dismay of our fellow student Dominic Sandivaski who, being Italian, wanted an Italian flag. He described the Italian flag as "Red, White and Green, vertical stripes" followed by "The same flag that Ireland has" (not quite right as Ireland has orange in place of red) at which point he was ridiculed with "Fancy having a country that has to SHARE a flag with someone else!!" The Hollinsend Road entrance to Gleadless Nursery & Infant School on Hollinsend Road has the seperate BOYS and GIRLS entrances in common with many other Victorian schools and these stones date back to then. The Junior school is a much more modern building on the other side of Hollinsend Road directly opposite the Nursery / Infant school. As you say the main entrances were rarely used, except for the main gate which gave delivery vans direct access to the school yard and building. Students usually used the one on the lane into the park for the infant school or an entrance on Ridgehill Avenue near the caretakers house for the nursery. The nursery is frequently used as a Polling Station for elections and this Ridgehill entrance is used to go and vote.
