Kristienc Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Hello, My mum lived in Sheffield from 1958 to around '74-76 and has often talked about places in Sheffield but has no pictures etc. I was wondering if anyone had any of the following places that I could show her or know where I could order prints? Heavyweight Hall The Royal Pub Tiffanys Abberdale Road Cinema The Lucent 'The Hole in the Road' Any help would be much appreciated. I now live in Sheffield myself so if there is anywhere that sells these prints it would be easy to collect. Kristie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kristienc Posted September 23, 2012 Author Share Posted September 23, 2012 Thanks, it was that group that suggested here. I just text her and she said she remembers the plastic palm trees well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bushbaby Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 The frontage of Tiff's is still in place, but behind it there is now a Students' Sainsburys. Abbeydale Cinema is still there, but for how long? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abbeydale_Picture_House The Hole in the Road is legendary. Meeting by the fish tank was a regular Friday Night event. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hole_in_the_Road#The_Hole_in_the_Road Which "Royal Pub"?? There were quite a few...

me-and-pippo Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 As far as I am aware it is/was on Highfield Road? Near London Road Area? The Royal PH was at the junction of London Road & Abbeydale Road, the building is still there but is now apartments. https://maps.google.co.uk/maps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
