Alchemia Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 A great shot indeed! Any idea of the year, please? Circa 'Hole in the road' obviously. ;^) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Organgrinder Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Thanks for a great photo. Great to see it whilst it still looked like the Sheffield I loved, nice and tidy with the markets and proper roads & open spaces & car parks. I can't bear to see it with all the high rise buildings blocking out all the light and nothing but hotels and apartments. Looks more and more like America and very little that's nice, ever came from that place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midge Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 This looks like the Sheffield I knew and loved. Not been in city centre for a few years now but seeing photos of how it looks know I dont think I want to. Too Americanised for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamal Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Very unfortunate to see what once was a grand city centre. Now full of dull architecture made of just glass and steel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhForAnotherShez Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Ponds forge was built in '91 - but how long before was it started? Hole in the road '67. Is that the C&A logo on the building? That became Primark ~1999. Supertram > Meadowhall 1994? Guesswork only I would estimate photo from mid 80's 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
