Then you should choose your ghost walk guides more carefully in future. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Speaking of redevelopment, and so I don't have to bother with a new thread for a quick couple of questions... I saw this thread on Twitter. I left Sheffield years and years ago. So, where's this in town?: And this? Looks a bit like the back of Debenhams on the left: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RollingJ Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 @Hecate I don't know about the first image - maybe Twitter users need to add a bit of info to pictures? The second one is taken at the bottom of Pinstone Street, going up the side of (what was) Debenhams towards Charter Row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin C Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Think the first image is looking up Trafalgar Street (from Wellington St?) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RollingJ Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Cheers, @Martin C. I don't spend much time in the city centre, so was unsure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just had a look on Google Maps and compared it to images on Picture Sheffield. 8 minutes ago, Martin C said: Think the first image is looking up Trafalgar Street (from Wellington St?) Thanks!

It is flats, and goes by the name of Kangaroo Works. Tesco are opening in one of the retail spaces on the ground floor.

Jack Grey Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 They should make The Moor Sheffields high street and change Fargate to bars and restaurants It's perfect because it's already pedestrianised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just been having a look. Reminds me a bit of the new Birmingham Uni library, but less garish and more gulag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
