East.

Lowfield/Olive Grove: 20 mins walk to city centre. Regular buses (bus depot at Olive Grove). Roads gritted in bad weather before anywhere else (Olive Grove Streetforce depot!). Lovely neighbours! B&Q. Ice rink. Reasonable house prices.

Arbourthorne: fantastic views of city & distant countryside. Houses being modernised. Street environment being improved. New school opens later this year. New children's centre opening soon. Arbourthorne pond for fishing. Historic Buck Wood (bluebells in flower soon). Getting better all the time!

Norfolk Park: tram; more fantastic views of the city and moors. Historic Heritage Park, with recently restored gates, terrific playground for the kids, and the fabulous Centre in the Park. (Catch the daffodils in bloom now!). New school, and new special school opens in September. New extra care home, and innovative green eco homes being built. A place on the up!

All: 15-20 mins to Derbyshire countryside & Peak District. Easy access to M1/M18. Close to city centre. Says it all.

south close to peak district good buses ring road nearby goodlinks to m1,m18 very peaceful and nice

the south of the city is the best we've got crystal peaks woodseats heeley retail park close to derbyshire and peak district beuityful scenery close to outer ring road good bus links to city centre greaves park meersbrook park and bishops house also some of the hilliest streets in the whole of sheffield also the south have got london road abbeydale road sheffield united football ground chesterfield road and good motorway links about 20 mins away m1,m18.

South and West - class area's with lower Chav Scum TWOKKER numbers than North and East.

North Sheff rules, nuff said.

I'm not getting into all the whys and what-fors cos it'll just end up in an argument which means the Mods will pull the thread.

Bit of a silly poll, imo. I've lived in south, south west, west, north west, north and north north east Sheffield and all have their good points. I currently live in the north west but work in the east, if I could live nearer my workplace with all the amentities of where I currently live then that might be the 'best' place to live.

PS Sheffield is the best place to live.

Max - you could move to the East......try Lowfield/Olive Grove, Arbourthorne or Norfolk Park. (see my earlier post above).
They are all ace places! Vote East folks, vote East!

you could move SOUTH abbeydale,sharrow,heeley,norton,herdings,woodseats ,greenhill,bradway,low edges,batemoor,jordanthorpe,dore,highfield come on move to the south the nicest and friendliest part of the city!!!!!

na by the way are you in north sheffield or east sheffield please let me no im confused!

I think the options aren't specific enough. North, South, West and East all have overlaps. For example, if you like the North West would you vote for the North or the West?! You should've split the poll into quadrants - North East, North West, South East and South West.

How about North-East ish

if you live in north west,north
if you live in north east,east
if you live in south east,south
if you live in south west,west

these are the new explinations to the poll please keep on voting!!

South Sheffield every time :- in fact they ought to build a wall round it to keep the Lower Orders out ----but I suppose we'd only be accused of snobbishness.
It's just that we don't drink our tea from a saucer or watch Coronation Street and we just want to keep it that way.

Just ignore all the critics , old son , and you stick by your guns.
Both you and I , and anyone with any knowledge of Sheffield , knows that the South is the tops------it's just that they're too proud to admit it.
We just want to keep the rough elements away from the South , that's all. What's wrong with that ?
We do not want to see Chavs displaying their bottoms in Fulwood and we do not want binge-drinkers in Dore.

here is some more information about the south of the city!

Sigmar have you some sort of antagonistic death wish.I apologise to everyone for replying to his thread yesterday then it would have disappeared.Except sigmar would have replied to himself.
I also think your version of south is a bit selective
As for walling the south off thats fine by me :rolleyes:
KEEP THE SOUTH OUT :smile:
ps,not wanting to be too clever ,me being from the poor old north ,but check your sh*t spelling:smile:

keep the north out especually shiregreen!

Didn`t go out tonight either !Ah bless
Never mind keep singing and coming up with witty replies :rolleyes:
Your profile hasn`t changed yet are you trying to be older than you are ?

no i haven't been out i've been supping cans of lager and on this forum and i changed it last night but i must not have saved the changes but i've changed it again to 1988 so let me know if it goes back
thanks!

Disagree or agree with Sigmar , you have to admire him for one thing----------he's got more front than Selfridge's and he'll soon have more postings than Kirky and Owdlad , put together !

Even though he's dropped the capitals it still seems a bit 'noisy' on the forum where Sigmar is.....They always say boys mature later than the girls...let him be...shame the easter bunny didn't bring him a large sock....sorry egg!!

Sorry Sigmar........ :loopy:

I have to say positive things about the South, as I have lived here for 20 year,12 years in Norton lees and 8 in Meersbrook.
I also need to say good things about where I am trying to move to at Crookes( West) as that is why I want to move!!

Good things about N.L and M,brook

Quiet
Affordable housing( comparatively)
Near to City Centre
Nice friendly ordinary people..( not too posh, but not trouble causers,mostly hard working)
Really good parks, Graves,Meersbrook, Bishops House museum
Near to Tescos, Sainsburys,Retail parks,Woodseats shopping centre

Annoying things about the above areas
Poor bus routes
Secondary school( Newfield) is not considered to be desirable
Due to Meersbrook being (in the past) owned by quakers,not a decent pub nearby( without walking to the Sheaf View)


Good things( I hope) about Crookes
Facilities, lots of shops,pubs and a really good bus route
Near to Hospitals and the Uni
Hopefully, nice friendly people
In catchment area for King Edwards school
Quite near to Endcliffe Park
Good access to Manchester airport
Solid, old fashioned housing with character

Annoying things
Inflated house prices
No parking

So, not sure if I get to have 2 votes??

all of the above is all true!!!

any other people got any more info about the other districts of sheffield?

What a pity that this thread had to descend into a slanging match. As an early poster to this thread, I espoused what was good about the area in which I reside (east), and voted for.

I don't need to be told about the negative aspects of where I reside. I've been burgled, and my car, which is parked on the street, has been broken into. But on the positiive side, my neighbours are not strangers. We look out for each other. There is a community spirit about, and I wouldn't want to swap that for the world. There are fantastic parks and open spaces in my locality. Most of the houses are modest, but affordable, but within easy reach of the city centre, M1/M18, and the Derbyshire countryside.

Wealth and affluence may figure in some postings. Expensive homes and leafy suburbs may influence some posters. I do not feel the slightest need to disparage any poster over where they live or which part of the city they voted for. It's just a shame that some posters felt the need to slag off different parts of the city.

it's same in the rest of the city it's just that you was slaging us of first so we had attack!

What on earth are you blathering on about now? :rant: I assume this comment was directed at RedRobbo, although your post does not make this clear.

RedRobbo has made two informative, clear posts on this thread. At no time has he even mentioned a district falling outside the east of Sheffield, which he quite rightly supports as it the area where he lives.

You seem to be making a habit of posting inarticulate drivel, based upon little, and in this case, no evidence whatsoever.

Please think before you post, and for the sake of the rest of the SF community, please make sure there is some value (be it information, an reasoned opinion or at the very least some humour) in your contribution.

Originally posted by sigmar14

Evidence please!

Despite your lack of grammar and inability to spell, I believe that you may be able to read - if so, kindly check both of my previous posts. (Tip: scroll to the bottom of this page, where you can click back to the beginning of this thread. This will enable you to follow the posts in sequential order).

If you can find where I have slagged off other parts of the city, I'll buy you a pint. Otherwise, in the words of Kristian, please stop posting 'inarticulate drivel'.

Not much has been said about the west of the city.
I've lived in the west of sheffield for eight years now and I think it is by far the best area of sheffield.
Ranmoor, Fulwood, Broomhill, Crookes, Hunters Bar, Bannercross etc... All lovely areas. There is Endcliffe Park, Whitely woods and the village feel of Broomhill, Crookes, and Eccey Rd. Loads of amenities. Plenty of fantastic pubs. Excellant bus routes and only a stones throw from the peaks.

MOD: Can we please refrain from using this thread as a vehicle for insults?

hasn't anyone else got any threds about the city centre? what do people think it's like and what could be improved not just with the city centre but with the whole of the city.

Northside is de best innit! :thumbsup:

Southside is a major diss to our city innit!

:P ;)

If the city is divided into 4 "zones", they appear to be in the bottom (or southern) one to me.

"south west" is "west", so even that might be "west" according to sigmar14.

Sigmar14, would you clarify the boundaries please, it might help us out here.

:)

I voted for central, as thats where all my favourite pubs/bars/restaurants/shops are.

Have lived in Broomhill, Crookes and Hunters Bar but Walkley gets my vote. It still feels like the original village and people seem friendly with less of a 'London' attitude, ie they talk to their neighbours.

new rules!

north=upper north west,upper north east,north
east=lower north east upper south east,east
south=lower south east,lower south west,south
west=upper south west,lower north east,west
central=city centre

hope these rules are more clearer for when you are voting.

So, do Norfolk Park, Arbourthortne, Olive Grove & Lowfield come under lower north east, upper south east or just east? Or do they just come under south now? I thought they were all east. Not so sure now.

it comes under east because it says east at the begging so what ever is before the equal's sign is what district it is the writing at the right hand side explains it all clearer.

Thanks for your clarification sigmar14. In that case, my vote for east is still valid, although east is clearly not winning in your poll.

true!

so let's leave it at that and get on with the proper discusion on which is the best district in sheffield!

I have lived in hillsborough for 19 years, Ecclesal area for 3 Years and woodseats for about 13 years and i'm only 22!

but seriously, how can you possibly say which area is best unless you get to know all of them?

I have also regularly stayed, gone out in, and played in chesterfield and rotherham and can happily report one of my mantras "MOST PEOPLE ARE REALLY NICE"

Where you live can be relevent to what age you are, (or at least what stage of your life) child, student, parent, worker, retired, motorcyclist, etc..

i would live in rotherham but not chesterfield! back and beyond if you ask me no good bus routes and is not in yorkshire

it comes under east because it says east at the begging so what ever is before the equal's sign is what district it is the writing at the right hand side explains it all clearer.
Sigmar14, have a look on a map mi owd chabberoony...

...Lowfield & Olive Grove are both due South of the city centre...

...and Arbourthorne & Norfolk Park are South-south-east of the city centre (South by your new rules)...

Originally posted by sigmar14
south=lower south east,lower south west,south

...so, my earlier question still stands, do you still want to slag these areas that are clearly in your favoured "area"?

I suppose wherever you live you will vote for, dont forget we are all proud to be from Yorkshire.

South Sheff i.e. Woodseats, Beauchief, Millhouses, etc does have lots greenland and parks along with historical places to visit, Godley Gardens, Industrial Hamlet. Also lots of drinking/eating places.

Iam Millhouses born and bred and although have lived in about 6 different homes have always been within 5 miles of my birth place.

:D

i voted for the south, because it is the best part of sheffield in my opinion.:thumbsup:

You can't beat Hunters Bar :-

A variety of good and very good restaurants and coffee bars.
Endcliffe Park and Botanical Gardens close by.
Unlikely ever to get re-developed or "improved"
24 hour supermarket,
Some good bookshops and other general and specialist shops.
A few good pubs and bars.
A pleasant cosmopolitan population , well-balanced.
A good few historical sites , dating back to at least the 18th. century,
A stream running right through the centre
A 10 minute bus ride to Town,
A 20 minute bus ride to the Peak District
A low crime rate vis-vis the rest of Sheffield
Visually attractive----plenty of trees , nice gardens and easy-on-the-eye-houses
Can any other area beat this ?

changed from the original quatation.

woodseats can!

come on south!:hihi:

I'm London born and bred. Lived and worked in Sheffield for 2 years in the mid-90's - lived in Nether Edge and Worrell. Loved living here for the people, the location, the safety (mostly) and ease of getting everwhere (despite this being when the Supertram was being built). Only downside was the car crime - had car broken into 6 times in 18 months.

Went back to London for 8 years but am now back in Sheffield. Now living in South West - beautiful location, still great people, still easy to get everywhere and still bloody car crime. However, the city seems to have developed a confidence in itself that it didn't have ten years ago. Don't worry too much about which bit's best - celebrate the whole city and keep building on this new found confidence.

But if I had to vote for one area - it would be Hunters Bar - it's got the lot (including car crime!!).

are you voting for the west then?:cool:

Originally posted by max
Bit of a silly poll, imo. I've lived in south, south west, west, north west, north and north north east Sheffield and all have their good points. .

Good point well made, voted souch, but love west and north too - not so keen on the east though, a bit too much of an industrial wasteland for my liking

only thing in the east of the city is the manor estate meadowhall and loads and loads of factories.

Possibly more concerning, is the fact you've acrewed more than two hundred and forty posts in less than a month - your fingers must be sore - :D.

For the record, I've only visited S6 and S11 - NW and SW respecively, and I prefer S11.

Has this poll been split into quadrents, yet?

If not, I'll pop in "west", as you requested.

Cheers,
Alex :)

Edited at 23.24 hrs.:

I also like S10 and S (whatever Loxley is). I suppose with my opinions, I ought to tick NW. (West).

Only my opinion, but how can Woodseats beat HB? IIRC, HB has the Botanical Gardens and the park that is being dug up.

Another reason for my tick to go in North West - :)

Lowfield/Olive Grove: 20 mins walk to city centre. Regular buses (bus depot at Olive Grove). Roads gritted in bad weather before anywhere else (Olive Grove Streetforce depot!). Lovely neighbours! B&Q. Ice rink. Reasonable house prices.

Arbourthorne: fantastic views of city & distant countryside. Houses being modernised. Street environment being improved. New school opens later this year. New children's centre opening soon. Arbourthorne pond for fishing. Historic Buck Wood (bluebells in flower soon). Getting better all the time!

Norfolk Park: tram; more fantastic views of the city and moors. Historic Heritage Park, with recently restored gates, terrific playground for the kids, and the fabulous Centre in the Park. (Catch the daffodils in bloom now!). New school, and new special school opens in September. New extra care home, and innovative green eco homes being built. A place on the up!

All: 15-20 mins to Derbyshire countryside & Peak District. Easy access to M1/M18. Close to city centre. Says it all.

the east is the best because of the listed thing's above and lots lots more.

the east of the city is the best by far!!!:thumbsup:

I'd say the west and south west.... Dore, Totley, Fulwood

Is Attercliffe/Darnall/Woodhouse/handsword/beighton classed as South? East? or south east?

I live in woodhouse

Eitherway I'd like put my 2 penneth worth in and say their all ****!....... full of degenerate famalies and car theiving CHAVS! I personlly would like to move away.........possibly out of this **** hole country and then newk the place!!

We have a YOB culture and parents unable to control their kids....... its a ****e state of affairs and I balme the government

BTW im 21....... not an old man who misses the steel works/ cole mines

there only **** holes because the council move all the druggies in, i mean take a look at jordanthorpe a few years ago it was one of the best estates in sheffield but now is one of the worst.

Hi
Halway belongs to which part-is it southeast?
Averi

Ecclesall definately.....its brilliant. Night life...countryside...friendly (although Sheffield in general is the friendliest city I've ever been to).
Rock on Ecclesall

South is best. Hav'nt seen Frecheville mentioned yet. Great bus route both into Sheffield and Crystal Peaks. Supertram pretty close.

me personally i hate the place to many posh people,students round there for my liking. it's not has good as woodseats though.

even though i'm from the east of the city there is nothing realy good apart from woodhouse and that isn't even good.

I don't rate Woodhouse either, there's only 1 pub that I know of up there, and it's a bit of a dive by all accounts (The Stag)..

I've always lived in North Sheffield by the way, namely Chapeltown, then Walkley, and for the last 7 and half years, Stannington.

Although I only found out fairly recently that Chapeltown is North Sheffield.. I used to think it was South or West..

woodhouse is probably the best thing that east sheffield has all there is are large council estates like the manor or woodthorpe.

personally i think that the south of the city is the best around the woodsets area.

I'm with Sigmar on this one. South by a mile!

Being an ex-Woodseats School lad and now living in Meersbrook.

Parks. Pubs, access to the Peaks and Derbyshire and proximity to Chesterfield. On the down side we have more supermarkets per square mile than any other part of the City. If you take Chesterfield Road a traditional butcher has just closed after 40 years and in it's place two new shops open up.

A Portuguese Minimart and an African Trinity Foodstore...Fantastic!! There's also a Caribbean Cafe and an Organic Vegetarian Shop.

what's so good about chesterfield? i think it's a right dump just like rotherham.

Chesterfield is a great little market town with a great theatre the Pomegranate and more pubs per square mile than any other town in Britain - Official !

Try it sometime.

No argument about Rotherham though.

i wouls i surpose but it's in the middle of nowhere it takes about 40 minutes from the city centre where rotherham only takes about 20 minutes so would rather go to parkgate etail world in rotherham.

what about rotherham what's that like?

is there any good areas around meadowhall north east sheffield or over the border in rotherham like areas blackburn or richmond park areas please let me know.

Horrid horrid squalid little place, please don't even try to compare it to Chesterfield - and no I don't live in Chesterfield, I don't know anyone who does, but Rotherham? Eyeuch!:gag:

why what's wrong with rotherham? town centres crap but there are a lot of cheap houses to buy and some very good areas.

by the way don't like chesterfield

is grimesthorpe a nice area?

Ok....The large council estates get you...

young 12 - 16 yr old yobs, that hang around on the streets at about 10:30 at night playing with shopping trollies and destroying somebodys bike they just nicked!....Two situations I had the enjoyment of seeing on my 10 minute drive home from my girlfriends house tonight.

As sombody has previously said here....All they do with the "Large" council estates is move druggies onto them hence you get the above

Do you see where I'm coming from?

FYI "manor and woodthorpe" in my opinion are the very worst areas in our city.

i'm with you on that one can't wait to move away from woodthorpe.

I don't mean to post off topic here but ive had a thought!

At the end of the day the UK as whole, has a young yob/chav culture now and I don't think the government can do much about it as it is way out of control now.

My point

Have you heard on news latley about this "Happy Slapping" thing where a group of yob's will walk up on an unsupspecting victim and slap them or beat them up and record it all on their mobiles?

Well heres my idea....maybe the other half our society "The decent people" should start a craze called "Happy Chav Slapping" i.e. every time you see a young yob or group of chavs hanging aroung the moor or markets or at your local mcdonalds terorising senior citizens........... run up with all your mates after a good night out when your all tanked up and then clip them round the head with a brick or two and then get a couple of snaps on your mobile and see how long they think its funny!

Bit extreme I know but I think it would be a right hoot! :hihi:

The portugese supermarket and the carribean takeaway aren't actually in woodseats, they are on Chesterfield Road, Meersbrook, near Arnold Laver - try thr west indian patties, lovely but watch out for the spurting hot oil at the bottom

south of the city by far! i mean people still vote for the south whan they don't even live in the south of the city.

no one else voting or discussing?

last vote was 220 lets see if we can get some more people to vote for which part of sheffield they think is the best.

its got to be walkley, hils, and stannington by far. no question.

I live in fulwood. nothing beats it..I have the Porter Brook running along the end of the road..trees all around and no pokey neighbours looking into my house.
its quiet, clean and there is a cat with 3 legs that hangs around my front door. I think its deaf too. or French.

have voted for east sheffield.
woodhouse
a nice area with nice people.

mmmm... i voted for west, but on reflection, i meant walkley, crookes, down to hunters bar. Loads of shops, pubs, young people, close to town and close to my work. Shame its too dam expensive to buy round here.

Crookes is the best by far and u knows it, bonsniff!

east side is da best man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sure I've voted in this, as the envelope is hole-y!

I'm going to go south-west!

Ranmoor and Endcliffe Park.

Perhaps, but all we got in Bramley was one of those daft blue boxes - at least here I've got a blue bin for my papers now. Rotherham is better for street signs, and I won't even mention the roads! Politically Sheffield has a healthier mix though, Rotherham has had too much of the same for far too long! Regardless of anyone's political persuasion, around 90% being any one party does not make for a healthy balance, would you agree?

Stannington, Hillsborough, Walkley are by far the best areas in Sheffield :love:

South and West - class area's with lower Chav Scum TWOKKER numbers than North and East.



I live in the north and i reckon theres as many chav scum TWOKKERS up here than there is anywhere else in the city.

I work in all areas of sheffield being a joiner and i hear of vandalism and theft in areas such as Totley and Dore aswell as Hillsborough so dont be so quick to label the north of sheffield as being full of lower class scum and chavs.
Yes, there are many more housing estates in the north of Sheff (Parson Cross being the biggest) but any area nowadays has its fair share of thiefs, vandals,teenagers hangin around bus shelters etc etc etc.

I'm a boro lad(born on rudyard road,opposite deep end pub) . now i live just off herries road and i love it. Been here 6 and a half years, had my car broken into once but couldnt that happen anywhere in the city.

Why live in an area where people look at you down their noses. I'd rather stick to the north where people are more friendly and money isnt always the talking point. Ten bob millionaires if you ask me.

Well said mate.

I've lived in North Sheffield all my life, and have never had any problems with crime or anything.

Lived in Chapeltown first, then lower Walkley, now Stannington.

All these posh toffs from Eccleshall and other places need to shut up IMO, just because they have their privet hedges and look over their fences and down their stuck up noses at everybody else doesn't make them any better than anyone else...

Oh look I did a typo on Eccleshall! Yeh.

never any good at geography. havn't got a clue what part of sheffield im in.:huh: :hihi:

Well mate. you know you're in the good part of Sheffield if the people swear at you when you say hello.

You're in the posh end when people just look at you like you were the roswell alien when you say hello.

It has recently changed hands and re-opened iirc, as has the Sportsman... The new Landlady's got it quite nice in there now, and has barred all the idiots off the Estates who used to cause all the trouble in there once upon a time.

And no, she hasn't barred me before anyone even goes there.

spent many drinking hours in turnbull, sportsman and peacock when i was younger. oh happy days.;)

Sheffield Council excells again (http://www.sheffieldtoday.net/ViewArticle2.aspx?sectionid=58&articleid=1724787) :hihi:

I was waiting for the Ecclesall rant to come:hihi: glad you didnt let us all down.

Yeh but Stannington can be just as bad as areas such as Dore and Totley. Especially up in the village

South rules!!!

North Sheffield, Chapeltown/Burncross area is the best in my opinion, but i'm bias as i've live there most of my life. xxx

Looks like everyone thinks the bit they live in is best.


Who would have expected that, what a surprise! :hihi:

Um, you what?! :loopy:

But yeah North Sheffield is the best, I was brought up in S6 and it did me no harm, although I was born in S7 at Nether Edge Hospital on a very warm Tuesday in April 1976.

Stocksbridge,the happy valley.

Fulwood, Ranmoor, Ridgeway, Mosborough, Intake, Millhouses, Totley, Outibridge etc etc. Any area that is rural, quiet and scenic, but also near all amenities.

Stocksbridge,the happy valley.

<chuckles> "Royston Vasey", you mean? lol lol (pulls "wry" face)

Actually, when I lived out there, there were spectacular views, from the front window of my house, over Wharncliffe Crags, and over the moors to Holme Moss, from the back.

When I was A-B, I used to walk for miles, with my old -dog, out on the moors and round the dams in the Ewden Valley. That was the "plus"-side.

The disadvantage of Stocksbridge was, it was miles from nowhere, (three miles past "the Back Of Beyond") it took longer (an hour) to get the ten miles to Sheffield, than it did (40/45 mins) to get to Barnsley on a bus, so it involved three hours or more, travelling time, (not including waiting for connections) and a journey of 34 miles, round trip, to visit my family in south Sheffield.

Also, when the snow set in, it was like being in the arctic circle. You'd be togged up in wellies and layers, upon layers of clothes. Then you'd get into Sheffield city centre, and you'd see folk walking about in sandals!!! (because there would not be one iota of snow there!)
