RatGirl85 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Hello, Just wondering if any one had any idea who has ownership over the old roman bath house on Birley Spa Lane? Its gone really down hill since its restoration in 2002 and it seems such a shame to let it go to waste. any information would be greatly recieved. ta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shebba Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Hi , Sheffield Council owns it,after spending such a huge amount of money restoring it to see it being left to deteriorate so badly. shebba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattenmurg Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Do they never have open days! I went to look at it once as I've seen pictures of it from restoration and original use but it's just shut up. Shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gavnmel Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 I had a walk down the other month and it was very eerie,run down and nothing like i remember how it used to look like when i was growing up. A real shame,it could be made into something much more of a community focal point if planned properley. Restore the pond to its former glory,put a kids park down there and planned activities,open a cafe in the bath house(i remember going to parties above the bath house,theres a community hall in there)and try and make something of it.Millhouses and graves thrive nearly all year round,i know its not on that scale,but the surroundings and history are amazing. Come on sheffield city council,dont let a little gem go to wrack and ruin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
