POPPYCHRISTINA Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 This is the photo of a building at the top of Palm Street ,Walkley.As you can see it has a Wards sign above it. Does anyone know if this was a pub and if so what was it called? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HughW Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 I think this is 386 South Road. In 1901 and 1919/20 Directories this is occupied by Rowland Hill, grocer. However, in this PictureSheffield image the goods on the pavement make it look like a junk shop! On the screens in the library it may be possible to read the sign over the door.

ukelele lady Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 Thanks,all. Thought I had found another pub. I remember going in there too, it was in the late 60s, a beeroff shop. My friend use to live in Palm street and when we had a night in we would go to the beeroff and buy a small bottle of sherry which they sold draught out of a little wooden barrel. Yuk I couldn't drink that now,there's better things. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, in this PictureSheffield image the goods on the pavement make it look like a junk shop! The readable part of the sign above the door says 'ROWLAND HILL'. The tram car was apparently built in 1901 and converted to a double-decker in 1906. Hugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
