pietro Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 If googlemaps is correct in its location, then this: http://www.picturesheffield.com/cgi-bin/picturesheffield.pl?_cgifunction=form&_layout=picturesheffield&keyval=sheff.refno=s17580 shows 84 as being a dental surgery (when the picture was taken) which shows some promise The building in the foreground, on the corner of Ash Street is still a dental surgery (Thompson and Thomas) No. 76 Langsett Road, this would put No. 84 where the second shop awning is in the photo. Across the road from No. 84 (before the petrol station) was a methodist church on the corner of Primrose Hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
