Ratter Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Hello ... Can anybody explain why the lodge house on the 'old Infirmary' site came to be known as the Ski Lodge ... there is a photo on Picture Sheffield showing this? Thanks in anticipation ...

Bayleaf Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Hi Ratter, welcome to the Forum. The lodge probably got that name because it was used as a shop by the people from the ski slope up on the hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ukelele lady Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 Hi Ratter, welcome to the Forum.

This picture was taken about four years ago. As a child I use to live just across the road and every Saturday and Sunday at visiting times [ for the Infirmary ] an ice-cream cart use to park there. I don't know whose icecream it were ,some Italian name but it was yummy that's if we ever had enough to buy one that is. How did they keep it froze in those carts? Not battery operated then.
