It wasn't built until the 1950s, almost ten years after the original building was destroyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longcol Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 The Sheffield University Arts Tower was only built to last 10 / 20 / 30 years (and presumably collapse on to Bolsover / Winter Street the next day). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirglyn Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 In the 70s there was a rumour that Kelvin flats had been built back to front due to someone having looked at the plans upside down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madornay Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Here is a common myth, there is apparently a network of underground tunnels that stretch throughout the city, intended to be used in wartime situations for getting from one place to another. The apparent places these tunnels lead to are:- Central Library Town Hall Hallamshire Hospital Manor Castle Cathedral Whether its true or not I have no idea, but I also heard a rumour that someone found an opening to them in firth park.
