DaveH Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 I need a bigger map ! Showing, erm, more so I can work out where it is. Ridgeway is a north Derbyshire village roughly half way between Gleadless Townend (which is in Sheffield) and Mosborough (formerly Derbyshire before 1967, but now Sheffield) so as such it is less than a mile south of the City southest border. Me, Steve, Stuart, Vox and quite a few others from this side of town will know it well. Particularly it's famous old pub, https://www.oldenglishinns.co.uk/our-locations/the-phoenix-ridgeway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardB Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 I know Gleadless Town End reasonably well, Aunt/Uncle lived there for about the last 40+ years, I could find Ford via a back lane, Mosborough - not a clue - may as well be on Mars.

He thinks Mosbrough is on Mars So he obviously needs a more accurate and reliable map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These bloomin' North Sheffielders, from their Ivory towers, thinking Sheffield finishes at Park hill! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some North Sheffielders think Sheffield finishes further north than that! Some of them have a "there is nothing south of the Don" sort of mentality.
