On Page 180 of the publication by Leader of 1875, Reminiscences of old Sheffield, its Street and its People, there is a reference to the "Scotland Street Feast" 

"Leighton: One improvement here is that the "Scotland Street Feast" which had degenerated into an excuse for drinking and immorality, is a thing of the past, but it died hard, and has not long since departed."

 

No indication of which hostelry/hostelries involved. Anybody know any more?
