max Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 You've forgotten Central Management Services which was on Aldwarke Lane and employed many Sheffielders as it was an amalgamation of IT workers from all the major South Yorkshire sites. I worked there, surprise surprise, Stocksbridge, British Steel Stainless (then Avesta then Outo Kumpu) on Shepcote Lane and also at the Scunthorpe site.
