Hi,i was wondering what the stocksbridge/deepcar area is like to live there,thinking of moving to Foxglen Road

Hi Dan It's been 34 yrs since I emigrated, but before I did I lived there 7yrs. Back then I guess it was quieter, but I loved it (Stocksbridge) I found the folks there friendly. We still have friends in Stocksbridge and Deepar, who I am still in touch with. From what I can gather from my friends it's not got the same crime rate as Sheffield, but as the population grows it's getting there. If you like clubbing down town it's a pain getting there still, I gather Manchester Rd is still a nightmare to drive on. I don't suppose they have an hospital still, and if you've got small children, then you should consider this. I hope someone posts who still lives there to give you a better and updated version of the two cities. Good luck in your decision:thumbsup:

I lived there 34 years. I lived around the corner from foxglen for 18 years and it was a lovely place to live. If you are from town and go to town it may take a little getting use to. Theres a lot of the older villagers who are proud of the valley.
Good luck if you decide to live there.

34 is becoming a reoccuring theme is this thread

eh

my mom lives up there and she loves it , although its lacking a few decent shops

I'm reliably informed there are 34 left. ;)

It's a lovley area. I've lived here all my life and I'm 35 (sorry to spoil the 34 theme).

It is a quite area and it does lack a few things, but the country side walks which are literally on your doorstep make up for a lot.

One minor point, which some ot the older locals will get stressed at you about, foxglen road is in Deepcar not Stocksbridge. Stupid detail but one which will prevent an arguement.

All in all a great place.

Great you've ruined it now party pooper

You coulda said 34 just to keep the theme going :(

:hihi::hihi: ok ,stocksbridge has 34 roads -happy (its a lie ,but carrying on the theme)

Stocksbridge/Deepcar i think are great places to live, my partner wants to move further afield but i want to stay as it wouldn't feel right if i moved away. And it only takes 34 mintues to walk round the village (thats a lie but didn't want to be a party pooper) lol

it had 34 foot of snow this week and no one could get to work.

I soooooooo knew you were going to say something

The Lower part of Fox Glen Rd does back onto the Glen and was always a nice road.

Pubs getting better King and Millar, Sylvesters, Oak all ok, with Bracken Moor, St Anns, Rugby Club and Lowoods clubs also ok.


Some problems in Stocky itself with regard to car break ins etc (but this put down to couple of individuals off Kenny) so no worse than some parts of Sheffield.

Ignore the pointy head, and 6 fingered Banjo playing comments which will no doubt follow soon.

Too many inbreds... 34 to be exact. (infact, add a zero or two to the end of it, should be nearer the mark)

ive always been in favour of a new Damb wall across deepcar

I've quite fancied an A-Bomb being dropped on the place, but it ain't happened yet.

I'll be coining it in at the bookies if it does, though.

the pub names are ironic. like the "Friends ship"

I am about to hand flyers out in Stocksbridge, should i expect a frosty reception?!

stocksbridge is a nice place to live and the property is cheap

Most of 'em scratch their heads when they see a bottle of milk on the doorstep!

Stocksbridge is in a parallel universe, well perhaps not quite. :hihi:

They won't be able to read them. They will assume that you are handing out ASBOs & run away from you. It will be a thankless task.

Think Stocky think Roysten Vasey.

Hahahaha I hope not! I did avoid a few houses though has to be said, some scary people around in a few parts!!

Its a nice place once youve got a foot under the table.

You need to have lived there at least 34 years before the locals even talk to you.

Take care
