I am looking for old photo's of Abbeydale Road, to help me produce a new book depicting the changes. They can be of any period in time as long as they show the road or buildings, schools, stations along its route. Pictures from the Highfields, Abbeydale, Millhouses and the park would be great.

Sheffield Library Photos should serve you well, also google 'Sheffield's Last Tram', it goes all the was from Abbeydale Road South to SCC.

It is very good, isn't it? When it gets to Pinstone Street the police officer is the 'Town Hall Bobby' called John, he ended up being the Lord Mayor's attendent.
