Hjdary 19 Posted May 25, 2007 Me too....I made a big mistake in that building . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RichardB 20 Posted May 25, 2007 Is it true there was a big hole underneath that building, mid eighties maybe ? No reference to divorces and stuff, seem to remember newspaper reports about subsidence at the time, and the building being closed for some time ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest coffee cup Posted May 31, 2007 they actually do the marriages etc in the town hall much nicer How things have changed, you can get married almost anywhere now read an article in a mag whilst at the dentist about a couple getting married in a hot air balloon. !!! Think people try to come up with strange places, to get themselves featured in the press or magazines, or even sometimes the local news. nice to be different, but sad to do it just for publicity.

eldomsmith 5 Posted May 31 In the grounds, there was the top of an old well as seen here from Picture Sheffield. Does anyone know if this has been covered? I don't recall seeing it since the re-development Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tozzin 130 Posted June 1 The “Wedding Cake” I thought was a horrible building, this is the Registrar Office that was demolished in the name of progress, I know which one I prefer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
