Where was this lane?

[neill_g]

Button Lane used to run from Thomas Street through to the bottom of Cambridge Street at Moor Head off which also came Carver Street and South Street (The Moor).

 

It was demolished around 1963 to make way for Charter Row, a rump being left (but since erased) close to Stokes Tiles on Moore Street.

An old friend of mine, Ralph Brookes had a swop shop on Button Lane I think in the late fifties

we used to drink in the angel after going to see whoever was on at the hippodrome

it was in the 1950s,"the real good old days"

Button Lane started just at the back of where Debenhams is now and ran to Fitzwilliam St.

There was also a Somali-run cafe on Button Lane in the late 1950 's [ I think the same family had a similar one on Matilda Street at about that time too ]. We used to call in one or the other quite regularly, especially on the way home from the fair on Granville Road. Not many places open after 10.30 p.m. in Sheffield in those days !
