I knew the area reasonably well 50 odd years ago but don't remember it in my lifetime at that location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmund Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 This video shows the journey to the Tinsley Tram Depot at the junction of Weedon Street and Attercliffe Common in 1960 ( see around the 16:00 minute mark). Unlikely - but is the Salts place shown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only info he has was that it was his nans shop and she died in 1969. The family also owned the pheasant and the commercial Hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
