What was the route that came through Parson Cross,Fox Hill .The terminus was Leppings lane  behind the Hillsborough school?

Thinking it was the old No 1.

The number 71 was a great bus service back in the 60s.  From Prince of Wales Road you could travel into town either up to the Manor Top and down through Norfolk Park,  or down through Darnall and Attercliffe. If you missed the bus one way, you could cross over the road and catch the bus going the other way.

When did the X3 and X4, that went from Dinnington to Sheffield end, please?

The 71 route ran from Manor Top via Prince of Wales road to Darnall, Attercliffe and on to town in the fifties and sixties.

The 92 route ran from Manor Park centre in the fifties and on to Pond Street later it was extended to a new terminus at the Crossways on the Manor Estate.
