Has anyone got any photos of the 15 tower blocks that were at Norfolk park?
I'm not bothered about the Grange or Mickley as I have plenty of my own photos.
I have found lots at the library but the photocopies I took there are very poor. Thanks for any help.
did you not find any on www.picturesheffield.com?
did you use the search facility on here? some forumers have posted sheffield pics of their own.
there's also the 'citysnapper' website - tons of photos of sheffield on there too

Many thanks, the picture sheffield website was down the other day, which is why i couldn't find anything but I've just found a few photos now.
Thanks Viking, I had already looked at that thread but there were none on the towers, in fact, I did e-mail Peter and he said he didn't have any, although I found loads of Kelvin etc.
Thanks for everyone's help.

Hi Joanna
Dr Simone Abram of Sheffield Universoity has conducted research on the regeneration of Norfolk Park. I don't know for sure, but she may have some photos of some (or all) of the fifteen tower blocks? Simone can be contacted at -

Don't know if its of any help, but I remember once finding some pictures of Supertram, and a couple were of it going up Norfolk Park with the flats in the background.
I have some great photos of one of the blocks being demolished with explossives but unfortunately they are in 35mm format.
