BGlass Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Can anyone throw any light on this structure built within the grounds of Sheffield High School for Girls, Rutland Park please? It's puzzled me for many a year, and Google searches have got me no nearer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
