They have made a great job of renovating it and restoring it... Jen is an Architect, and a lot of time was taken before they started work. They would be very pleased to see any photos of the place as a shop, there is nothing at all anywhere online that anyone has found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a side note, are those more recent directories available online anywhere please? I have some 19th century and early 20th but have not come across the later ones online. My god, you've got big cohones, publishing that on a public forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a very useful corner shop which we used virtually every day, my wife thinks the shopkeepers name was Roberts. Was Mrs crosses . Used to walk up jennle from stores hall rd . Made her own penny ice lollys in 70s summers . Sold everything you could think of .

I think it was converted into a house in the 80s. Can anyone remember it as a shop, or anything about who ran it, what it was called, what it was like? I've had a look on here and Historic Sheffield but nothing comes up - any memories gratefully received! On 12/01/2017 at 16:28, Guest makapaka said: Was Mrs crosses.
