Sheffield History Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Does anyone know when the green police box was first used there? Is there any documentation on this quirky little Sheffield landmark? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Walker Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Not exactly 'quirky', there used to be a lot of police boxes around Sheffield (and painted this colour). I am sure I have seen another thread on here with information about these police boxes, I will have a look round later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right here are two police box threads, I think the second one is two threads merged, that's why the title doesn't seem to fit at first. ------------ https://www.sheffieldhistory.co.uk/forums/topic/46-the-blue-39police-box39-next-to-the-town-hall/ ----------------- https://www.sheffieldhistory.co.uk/forums/topic/16751-what-was-this-please-police-boxes/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
