lysander Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 I wonder, does anyone remember these? There was a fairly large brick built, almost windowless,rectangular building across the way from the ESC Sports Club on Shiregreen Lane which I was informed was one of these. Was it such a place and where were the others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lou Scannon Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 I believe there was one at Crookes which became the Regional Blood Transfusion Centre until about 1971ish when it moved to Longley Lane. No idea what ultimately became of the Crookes building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miked Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Large one at Grenoside near the mental hospital, Amazing building. Brick built with concrete roof. Heavy steel doors, metal bunk beds. Used to play in it. No one seems to know anything about it now, It should have been photographed documented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
