I had to pick up an elderly lady by car from the Lyceum tonight. As far as I could see there is now only one way in and out of Norfolk Street , via Arundel Gate, causing a significant traffic jam and the need for each car to turn around before exiting to Arundel Gate. I used to turn left from Arundel Gate onto Norfolk Street and then exit via Surrey Street on to Pinstone Street though this option appears to have been stopped, resulting in the situation I experienced. Or is there an alternative route I have overlooked ?

Devonshire Cat Not Reopening As Abbeydale Pub
cityspinner replied to taxman's topic in Going out in Sheffield
Sorry to see this. I do feel that it was better before they moved the bar though. I wonder if this had any effect on trade. -
Can any of the experts on here help me? My bedroom tv will not tune in to ITV, Channels 4 and 5. When I re-tune, it picks up BBC 1,2 etc ok but not the channels above! Sometimes it shows 43 channels found, sometimes 62 but still no ITV. Picks up ITV 2 plus one, ITV 4 and ITV 5 though. I am puzzled, surely it should pick up ITV if it can pick up BBC!

Are there still feeder buses running from the Old Mother Redcap at Bradway? If so, are they running all day? Also, anyone know if the OMR has re-opened ?

Norton Retail Park - St James

I believe Pets at Home are moving to Norton also. -
Dogs allowed in the bar to the right but not in the restaurant side to the left as you go in front door. So if you want to eat without dogs nearby, go left!.

Brown Bear Sheffield City Centre - closed? Now re-opened.

That's 2 S.Smiths pubs now closed with the Old Mother Redcap also. That leaves 3? -
Tap and Tankard Cambridge street.

Was always going to be short-term in view of development. Have they been given notice by Council or is it just no longer profitable? Big Shame, as was nice to access Kelham Island Beers range in City Centre. -
Agree with last 2 posts. Was pleasantly surprised when I went in before Christmas to find decent selection of beer. Can take or leave oysters but found the Chowder/ Stew a great accompaniment to the beer and reasonably priced. A must for future Kelham drinking outings.

Why was that? Quality or Choice ?

NUM Building development - Turtle Bay etc
cityspinner replied to jamesogt's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
Vicar Lane was the NCB Pensions building I think. Holly Lane was to be the headquarters of either the NUM or the Yorkshire NUM who were based in Barnsley. It coincided with the demise of Arthur Scargill so I don't think the move ever happened. My recall is somewhat hazy and I'm sure someone will know. What I do recall perfectly is that Sheffield Taxpayer's money was used, as previous poster says. I'd love to know the "ins and outs" -
NUM Building development - Turtle Bay etc
cityspinner replied to jamesogt's topic in Sheffield News & Discussions
I think the site was "gifted" by the Council to the NUM. I'm not sure it was ever occupied but has been an eyesore for years. I'd love to know what the actual details of the transaction were.
