I suspect I don't have a clue where/what this is ...

Looks like part of a bridge, possibly?

Across the Don or the canal, maybe?

One of the bridges on these Don valley walks which feature in several other threads, perhaps?

Probably wrong but just a few ideas.

It is a bridge and it is over the Don :)

Good guesswork on my part and I may have given others a few clues, but not an area I know particularly well so I am out of ideas.

Is it one of the bridges around the Kelham Island area?

supplementary question - where do the steps on the right go to?

If you couldn't get close a week ago then it's probably still under construction.

It' on the Don.

It's painted blue and I can see some stone work on one picture.

Ergo - Must be Club Mill.

I think of it as Wardsend Bridge, but Club Mill is more or less spot on! I was very happy to find that I could walk across it this afternoon after a session of chopping bracken and photographing gravestones.

If you go through these gates now, you dont get very far. But where are these gates and what was through them?

Following on from the Market Tavern, what about this one.

Again the upper floors of some random building, not a pub

IS IT OPPOSITE A PUB

As I have said, you don't get very far through these gates now, but a few years ago you could go for miles!

For the benefit of Skeets & Co there is a Pub/Hotel next door lol

You would not get too far, I think...

I reckon it might be the entrance to the now-defunct Heeley station? (judging on Ponsfords being opposite the gates, in the second photo?)

Correct PT

As I said, you could have gone for miles at one time

Siren guessed it was a public toilet, but got the location wrong.

There is a pub/hotel next door, although it is a bit of a trendy winebar come restaurant come hotel.

About 400 yds away is a historic location
