MLiversidge Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Hi Can anyone on Sheffield Forum help me in my search for an image of an old public house. The Victoria Hotel at 621 Attercliffe Road near the corner of Sleaford Street. Over the years I have managed to get photos of nearly all the pubs in this area and would very much appreciate help with this image. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MLiversidge Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 Thanks for the advice. I have been through the library archives and picture Sheffield but found only one image which just shows the top section of the pub and nothing else. Only the upper windows and roof can be seen.

Spacecat Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Have you tried the book ...'A Pub On Every Corner....by Douglas Lamb ' ? It's a fascinating book of old Sheffield pubs with some great photos ... should have a copy available for you to flick through at your local library . PS...Another book to browse is 'A Wander up the 'Cliffe'.......not sure of the author though . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joto Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 There's two Victoria Hotels on this website's pictures of pubs, but I don't know if either one is the one you mean. This website has a forum, so maybe someone on there can help. http://www.sheffieldhistory.co.uk/forums/index.php?/gallery/album/49-sheffields-forgotten-public-houses-postcards/page__sortby__comments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A wander up the Cliffe book definitely does not have a picture of the pub. I wrote the two Wander up the Cliffe books some years ago - I couldn't find a picture then and obviously still unable to find one Thanks Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
