Farfield Road, Neepsend

Recommended Posts

I was looking at a post where Farfield  Road residents were listed in 1948

I wanted to look again the following day but couldn't remember where I had seen the post

Think it was in the Sheffield History Chat section and could have been posted by Ned 

Somebody help me please, I've been looking for the past hour !

Hi SteveHB

Just the walls of the school still stand with Girls and Boys visible on the entrances.

There are some lovely blackberry bushes in the area, I'm not telling you where !
