Is it or was it on Beet St/Upper Allan St, I drive down there every day and I cant remember, old age or what If nobody else confirms I will answer this 1st thing Monday morning.

Guest Danny Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 How old is the pic? Netherthorpe flats have been 'facelifted' in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukelele lady Posted December 7, 2008 Author Share Posted December 7, 2008 Demolished after 1998. Sorry Dick I only took the picture 2 years ago. I once read what it was when it was built, well before it was a nursery but I've completely forgotten. I will have to look it up , maybe it's in the Kelly directories from way back.

HughW Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 This 1930 image from PictureSheffield is labelled "266-272 Beet Street site for Day Nursery". The building was still standing when the current GoogleEarth images were taken. Because of the slight angle you can see the ornate doorway ( 53°22'58.62"N 1°28'55.31"W ) Hugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
