Getting from Crookes to Chapeltown on the bus -

BruciesBabe · 05-04-2005, 13:52

Hello,

How do I get, on the bus, from Crookes to Chapletown? and how long does it take ish? The buses that I can get from Crookes are 95 and 123.

Thanks
Kate.

Not sure about a direct bus, but the 72 and 76 both run to Chap from Town!

Also, Chapeltown has a train station.. Buses from Town go there every few minutes.

BruciesBabe, I would stay in Crookes

Thanks GazB, I didn't realise it had a train station. Ive checked the train times and they aren't too bad at all.

Thanks again.

Kate.

Yeah Chapeltown Train Station is behind the ASDA supermarket there.

Do you know where that is in relation to the Bright Finance building on Churchill Way?

95 & 123 in crookes....I think you might find that's Walkley and there would be no point in catching either of them as they will only take you further away...lol

Walk down to Hillsborough and find out from the interchange...

95 and 123 stops in crookes as well - nr crookes valley park.

The bright finance building is 1 churchill way, but I have no idea if its on a bus route or nr a bus route.

95 and 123 stop, as you say, nr Crookes Valley Park, although this is S6, Crookes is S10. Then it stops in Barber Road, opposite the newsagents, then at Steel Buildings, opposite Springvale Public House, then twice on South Road, Walkley before stopping outside Walkley Library.

You're going to the Bright Finance building?

I'm afraid you'll really struggle with buses, it's next to the Thorncliffe Industrial Estate. Even the train station is a good 15 minute walk away. The 265 or 72/72a from Town will drop you the closest, and then it's just a 5 minute walk along the road. Or if you get off outside Norfolk Arms, I think the walk down that road is even shorter.

If its easier for you to get to hillsborough than town then theres always the numbers 77 ,74 and 80,(penistone rd) which go to chapeltown and up towards high green.
youd need to get of on mortomley rd and walk back to thorncliffe industrial.
Also if youre lucky enough to catch the 201 from chapeltown (lloyds bank)this takes you straight to the industrial estate. runs about 38 mins past every hour.

I had an interview at Bright Finance as an IT techie last year.. Money wasn't good enough though

BruciesBabe · 06-04-2005, 10:56

GazB,

What were the people like? Ive got an interview as a Quality Manager, money is more than i'm on now, so fingers crossed!

Looks like it'll be a bit of a mare getting there though!

Do u know where the 72/72a go from in town and how frequest they are?

Tara,

Do the 77, 74 and 80 start in town?

Kate.

GazB · 06-04-2005, 11:11

72/72a I think goes from the station and both run hourly (I think), through the Moor and then onward.

The guys that interviewed me seemed Ok, they were both mid 20's.. How old are you?

BruciesBabe · 06-04-2005, 11:13

Im 27. u?

Have to say it seems to be bit of a git to get too! hopefully if I get the job, I can steal a lift from someone who lives this side of sheff!

GazB · 06-04-2005, 11:21

I had my interview last year when I was 18!
