ECCOnoob Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 (edited) Make sense. That's where the the major part of the shopping is now and fargate has had to create some space for the container park and various ongoing building conversion works. The lower part of Fargate also now has some residential, so again, The Moor will be a more appropriate place to put such an attraction. Don't really see the move as being a problem, I think it's pretty obvious that it will overflow up to peace gardens so the link between fargate peace gardens and the Moor through the xmas market attraction will hardly be a great challenge. I would argue those who kick up a stink about or be leaving petty comments all over the Sheffield Star articles about such a minor thing would be the sorts of "don't like change" types who would be complaining no matter what the council did Edited October 26, 2022 by ECCOnoob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's plenty to go for! It's only people with no imagination that need things laid out on a plate for them Edited October 26, 2022 by Mister M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pattricia Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 The Xmas markets will be better down The Moor as there is more room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crookesey Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 The Moor has been missing a reason for it’s existence for as long as I can remember, however things have changed. It has the only remaining department store in the City and doesn’t attempt to claim residential status, I’m all in favour of the market moving to within what will become Sheffield Retail Centre, good luck to it.
