Not a lot looking at a 1950's map, looks like an enclosed area with vehicle access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichardB Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 I was just looking for 296, as asked, I think the tavern is 617 or 627 - did wonder, also no idea what year we're talking ... renumbered maybe ?

jimmydunneclone Posted April 2, 2012 Author Share Posted April 2, 2012 Thanks to everyone for your help.I have looked for pictures on Picture Sheffield to no avail (apart from Smith Widdowson at 296).Are their any other sites for pictures?

jimmydunneclone Posted April 15, 2012 Author Share Posted April 15, 2012 According to A Pub On Every Corner there was a pub opposite The Barrack Tavern called The British Queen,although there are no dates.Does a picture exist of this place?

Ponytail Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 No Image found on Picture Sheffield but the British Queen was damaged during the Flood of 1864: Robert Budd, brewer, Strong Arm Brewery made the claim for "damage done to the Public House called the British Queen at Owlerton." https://sheffieldfloodclaimsarchive.shu.ac.uk/claimSummary.cfm?claim=5-4272 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
