What do you miss in Sheffield that used to be here but now is gone?


Recommended Posts

good thread I miss all the things that have already been mentioned,but most of all the community spirit of the old terrace houses where if your mum and dad worked the neighboughs looked after you in the hols,and you never locked the back door,cos we had nothing worth stealing!Can I ask Fridayboy if bowers butchers was owned by Deniss Bower as he was a good friend of ours in the 70s,and we have lost touch,it would be nice to hear if he is well.anyone know his whereabouts?He had a shop in bannercross I think!

My Daughter didn't believe me when I told her about travelling around Sheffield for 2p. I remember going to Granville college and I got a bus pass because I lived 3 miles outside Sheffield. I thought it was great 18 year old travelling for 2p.
