In the mid 80's it was a shoe shop! I remember coming to Sheff as a little kid to have school shoes bought for me from that building... It was a K's or a Clarks or somesuch place that sold Startrite shoes... The kids shoes were up the stairs... When I moved to Sheff 12/13 years ago I was amazed that it wasn't a shop anymore, but a McD's... Redgates I also recall, and that was where the Coop was, which I think is a building down the side called Sunwin House...

I remember the Former Mcdonalds as being a Benson's carpets, many moons ago, and the heart foundation charity shop which is on the opposite corner, was a DER/ Radio Rentals.

McDonalds address is 1-5 The Moor. In 1972, No 1 was Eastern Carpets, No 3 was Mansfields shoe shop and No 5 was Curtis's Radio, TV & Hi-Fi. Redgates had been a bit lower down than this on the same side; by 1972 they had moved to 18-24 Furnival Gate.

Mansfield's - that was it! I'd been trying to remember the name of the shoe shop. I got some lovely brogues there - the height of fashion they were (in about 1963....). Some of us old fogies can remember Redgates being in Fargate....:(
