Im a bit confused as to what you're asking? I dont know where Heries Road is but for the other one if it says get off at Hallamshire hospital - get off at the Hallamshire Hospital! You cant miss it its huge. The bustop is opposite it. Lots of people get off there. Just ask ther driver if you're not sure.

Looks like you will need the 60 into town, then the 20/20A up to longley, sounds like it is just behind the northern general where the flats are, but can't help you with the exact stop.

Sorry.

Shirecliffe, Herries Road/Penrith Road, Southey Green

Penrith road it just down for the Five arches pub and up the road for the railway bridge on herries road, herries btw is opposite SWFC on Penistone road.

Hope this helps :)

Hmm now you have said that mrseggy it sounds like ingela will need to catch the 7 from town to shirecliffe, but id doesn't run down to where old bus depot was, only in the evenings.

thank you, i've got the herries road one now, but i'm still confused as to where near the hospital that stop is? i'm thinking its on the side of the hospital near the hanrahans pub (dont know what its called now), would that be right?

And as a really silly question.. which side of the road will i want to be on??

What road do you need to get to?

Need to get to longely avenue west, theres a bus from hallamshire that goes to the northern general (the Ho1) and stops in a place i now think i know so i think that the easiest, don't really want to be messing about with two buses etc.

i just need to know where to catch it now!

Thanks everyone.

it would take you about 30 mins to walk from NGH to the Herries Rd end of Longley ave west, im not sure there is a bus from the RHH to there, sorry, but if you do get a bus to Penrith Rd it is about a 10 second walk to Lonley ave west.

when you get off the Bus on penrith road cross over the road and walk up the hill and Longley ave west is the first turning in your left

if you type Penrith road, sheffield into the search bit here you will see what i mean

Why not go into any newsagents and buy an A to Z?

I think it is more than likely to be the hallamshire side i.e bus heading to town

you can get a bus in the grounds of the hallamshire, number 40 i think, then get off in town and the 33 used to go on longley ave west from shirecliffe to the five arches pub hope this helps :)
