SteveHB Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Thomas st - 1950 Interesting photo JB, looking at it I can't help but wonder why most of the Thomas Street (NE) side of the Eye Witness Works was rebuilt in 1950, it even looks as if a flat roof was added. There was a fair amount of air raid damage in the Moorfoot area, the 50's OS map shows a barren area facing the NE side of works, wonder if that was down to blitz damage, or was it just part of housing clearance ?

madannie77 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 I don't think any of these have appeared so far: Gleadless Methodist Church, 1865. I didn't spot the date stone in December last year, but got off a bus at Townend yesterday and saw it straight away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madannie77 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Chapel Street in Woodhouse is well named: United Methodist Free Church 1889, now the Tythe Barn Community Centre Wesleyan Chapel, 1878. The date stone is rather dark. Wesleyan School, 1861 Another Chapel, 1905, now Hallam Carpets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A three and a half day visit to Sheffield this time, most of which I spent photographing items which have already appeared on this site . lots of date stones and no collisions with other people or lamp-posts . Lots more stuff to be added in the next few days when I find the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveH Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 A three and a half day visit to Sheffield this time, most of which I spent photographing items which have already appeared on this site I was going to say that I don't know of any buses from Carlisle that go through Gleadless Townend but you are clearly having a "holiday back at home" (home being the City of Sheffield) Enjoy your stay.

Already back in Carlisle, unfortunately. Not because I don't like living up here, but because I have rather enjoyed wandering around Sheffield with my camera in the last few days, as can be seen from the number of posts made in the last 24 hours. National Express coach service 537 serves both Carlisle and Sheffield and, like many coach services, probably passes Gleadless Townend en route for points further south, but it doesn't stop there! I travel by car between the two places, but only use public transport and Shanks' Pony whilst in Sheffield.

PhilT Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 I know this is no longer there (the building) but does anybody know what the opening date would have been on this stone and what the apparent latin phrase said? File0071.bmp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
