I'm interested in the stone archways/tunnels in the bottom left of this photo. I guess all of this in now under Park Sq roundabout? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madannie77 Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Those archways are on the site of the Corn Exchange so presumably were something to do with that building. It is indeed now underneath Park Square: http://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/side-by-side/#zoom=17&lat=53.3839&lon=-1.4599&layers=168&right=BingHyb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athy Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 20 hours ago, Sheffield History said: That looks a popular street: it's crowded with people, and the nose-to-tail parking would still be quite unusual at that time (which, from the cars, i guesstimate as mid-1960s - the third one looks like a Ford Corsair which was introduced in 1963). I wonder what was going on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldbloke Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 It's Dixon Lane. It looks pretty normal to me, town was always busy like that on a Saturday. There weren't any parking meters yet either . I hated it when I was a kid, you could get trampled going down there to the Rag & Tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheffield History Posted March 2, 2018 Author Share Posted March 2, 2018 Ah yeah forgot about the markets being at the bottom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
