Maybe worth having a walk today to see if a new timetable has been posted on the bus stop. As Andy C has posted it seems a mix up between TSY/TMT - the large North & South maps show daytime service 6 goes that way in a one way loop yet the timetable booklet shows not!

Last report I read on SCC planning website is that the developer has an appeal hearing pending against SCC. Something to do with what the units may be let for and what can be sold in them. This maybe why both Boots and M&S Simply Foods are holding back on not signing up for a lease of unit/units. Also I think once walls are put up around phase two units -then business rates kick in.

If you read this thread you will find that listed fireplace and chimney will be recorded in photograph form before being removed and given to Kelham Island Museum.

Information gained from SCC planning website. It looks like the final few pieces of the jigsaw are now in place : w/c Sept 10th 2012 - The Site to be boarded off w/c Sept 17th 2012 - Demolition of The Gate w/c Sept 25th 2012 - Demolition of The Travellers during October site to be prepared ready for next phase of construction

An item on SCC planning dept web page that work was due to take place this week on recording data on the 'old fireplace' within the former travellers inn. It will be photographed and carefully removed and then given to Kelham Island Industrial Museum. Once this done the bulldozers will move in.

After some seaching about this former school found this site which shows what the future could the building... http://www.studiogedye.co.uk/listed/heeley-bank-school/

Now up for sale by the City Council. I feel it would be great if it could be saved along the lines of the Burton Street Centre in Hillsborough (this also a former School). If enough interest amongst the community/local businesses/forum members a form of co op style company could purchase and operate the centre. Several threads over the years have said that Sheffield could do with an independent hostel to cater for the budget travel market. Part of this building could cater for this need. So is the interest still there for Sheffield's own DIY SOS -the BIG BUILD project!! I don't have all the expert knowledge myself by the way however from little acorns.....who knows what we could create.

According to next weeks Radio Times its back to local output over lunch time on Radio Sheffield - No One to One or Liz Green as the listings guide shows it will be Paulette Edwards 1pm to 4pm

Anyone wanting to take photographs of the former pubs -Gate inn and Travellers had better be quick as the sites are now being fenced off and may demolished by this time next week.

Sure I read in Sheffield Telegraph that Planning approval has been given by that department so now has to go though a final council meeting to be held this week or next for them to give any final comments.

That site is owned by Tesco I believe who have part sublet to SWFC for car park.

I think the land (former Superbowl) is reserved for a possible Park & Ride site for the PTE.

The Supertram bus link from Stocksbridge to Middlewood has been in service since July 2007!

This Shaws Coaches were a Barnsley based company.

Could be a catalogue number if stamped into product. If like an etching the product could have been in for a repair at sometime.
