HughW Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Fulwood Cottage Homes are now called 'Moorside'. They are off Blackbrook Road just north of Harrison Lane. Have you come across Marjorie Dunn's book For the Love of Children about the homes? It is out of print but you may find a second hand copy or there are copies in the Local Studies Library in Surrey Street. Hugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike142sl Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 There are a few pics of the homes at picture sheffield inc this one The Church has been extended a couple of times in 'recent' years and the school is now part of the church hall so your relative will find it very different. The Church Office may be able to assist with a suitable time to have a look around, their tel is 0114 230 1911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Glad you had a good day Dave. Did you go into the school? It's an environmental study centre now, and the warden is usually happy to meet anyone from the old days.
