Caliden Posted September 20, 2003 Share Posted September 20, 2003 I must admit, the feeling of community round here is rather nice. I live in a "bad area" thanks to student budget, but the people are good, kind and friendly despite all sorts of differences Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houdi Posted October 28, 2003 Share Posted October 28, 2003 Originally posted by alchresearch So what is the name of the area of Ecclesall Road where the students live? Sharrow is the nearest place according to Ordnance Survey. The 'proper' suburb of Ecclesall, which T020 said, is miles away, beyond Greystones and Brincliffe. I lived just off Eccleshall Road (Southgrove Road) in the 70's and never regarded it as coming under any particular area. It was just Eccleshall Road, an area on it's own. It definitely isn't Eccleshall, which is miles away out near Bents Green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Age Posted October 28, 2003 Share Posted October 28, 2003 I'm suprised no one voted for Park Hill. The manor ain't that bad. One of me sisters friends lives on there and she says that at first she was broken into alot but now they just leave her alone and she's like one of the family. Even so I still feel afraid walking around there. I do in quite a few places though. Yup sorry to say it guys but I think that Dore and Totley are snobby. Actually Nether Edge used to be too. I'm not sure if it still is. All I know is, I walked down to Hunter's Bar with my dogs yesterday and I smiled at the people down there and they look at you as if your trying to rob them!! Geez if I was gonna kidnap someone I'd pick someone sexy for crying out loud!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where were you weeks ago when this debate was spiralling out of control? At last someone with common sense and local knowledge. PS. Drop the 'h' in 'Eccleshall' - Ecclesall.

Carlwarker Posted October 28, 2003 Share Posted October 28, 2003 It doesn't matter WHERE one lives - That is often out of one's control. It's HOW one lives that matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Age Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 To be honest I wouldn't wanna live up the Eccelsall area anyhow. All that money for tiny houses dwarfed by busy roads and pollution?? Dosen't sound groovy to me. Remember though Pitsmoor was once posh ( just look at the style of the houses ) and what areas are considered posh change. So I guess they is no good or bad area. All areas - even mine - will be posh one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All areas - even mine - will be posh one day. Which tiny houses would they be? I live here, and I see what the houses are like. They are mainly average-large semi detached and detached houses, and there are also a fair few 'big' houses too. 'All that money' is justified when you consider the fact that there are no motorways or ring roads at all running anywhere near the area, being on the edge of the countryside, lower rates of crime and anti-social behaviour, lots of parks and tree lined roads, Sheffields better state schools, etc etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's got a bad reputation now! Regards, Spacehopper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Age Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 Nah even that area has its bad points t020. Mainly the fact that quite a few of them think themselves to be better than the average person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
