Hello all
This is just to let all the ex pats who may be interested know that all the old buildings on Gibralter Street in the Shalesmoor area are being demolished as we speak.
I drive home through the area every evening and The old Pheasant Pub building has gone together with the Nags Head.
Lots of other smaller terrace buildings have also gone. I'm 41 and have never seen the area so bereft of buildings
The development is part of the road building linking part of Sheffields' ring road and they propose to go right through the Kelham Island/Alma Street district. One of the last pieces of Victorian Industrial Sheffield left.
Oh, they decided to preserve the last survivingBlast Furnace belonging to Doncasters situated now in splendid isolation on Doncaster Street
