Sheffield History Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Just saw this on social media. We all know the Old Queens Head right? But take a look to the left at the road but also the corner shop/pub type building? Anyone know what that was? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite right and I seem to remember in the fifties that to the right of the building as a small garage or is my memory failing me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athy Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 According to the brewery's web sits, the pub opened in the corner building in 1840 and expanded into the right-hand building "some time after 1862". The brewery in question is Thwaites, from Lancashire. O tempora, o mores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeadFarmer Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Didn't even realise that building on the left was still there today.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
