Fun fair at sheaf square

I've seen a poster in a shop window advertising a fun fair in sheffield. The poster stated that it was at sheaf square and i think it was due to start at the end of this week. I thought sheaf square was the square im front of the railway station in town. Maybe i'm wrong because surely that square wouldn't be big enough for a funfair.

hope the funfair man reads this that will sort out your question

You are correct.

Sheaf Square is where the fountain and cascades are in front of the railway station.

Its Farrars Fun Fair

Fri 10th to Sun 19th, off of Sheaf Square next to railway station.

It is the big piece of waste ground adjacent to the station where the fair will be.

this is intresting wasn't there a funfair there years ago as in several decades ago?

wonder if theres any comments about that,there used to be one on the old railway site

near I think?

In the 1960's a fair was held on a goods yard near the Midland Station and in the late 1970's fairs were held near to where the Europa garage is at the bottom of Granville Road.Years ago fairs were held on the old station approach at the former Victoria Station.

thanks for that remember 1960s goods yard one it was great in them days,escort 1 thanks for that and trust you will keep us updated with the traveling funfairs throughout the coming months,so we can all enjoy them,even at over 60 years old I like to visit and have a burger as my funfair ride days are over,but the lights,the music,the screams it may be old fashioned ,but its part of our heritage thanks.

Lovely to hear you reminising about the good old days matthew. Might see you at the fair for a burger and a spin on the freak out. Don't worry the freak out looks worse than it actually is.
