Does anyone know where the name for this street came from?
My dad lived on Strand Street from 1932 to 1956 and there's no obvious reason for its name - he's always wondered why it came to be called Strand Street
We've tried the Local History section of the main library in town and whilst there is a book all about Sheffield street names, Strand Street does not appear -and neither does it appear on any of the Voters Rolls or Kellys Business Directories
Hopefully someone can give us some clues
Thanks
