Recommended Posts

I`m pretty sure I read that there`s a new place there somewhere. Anyone been to the bar or know what it`s called?

I went during Tramlines, it was lovely, really friendly folks, relaxed vibe, good beers and the G+Ts looked impressive too. Am looking forward to visiting again when it's next open. Would be lovely to see this part of town a bit livelier, as it's been dead these last few years.

Couldn't agree more. Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham and Lincoln have all made their canal basins a focal point for leisure and retail. Visitors to Sheffield would hardly realise we had one. I blame the ring road which effectively cuts it off from the rest of the city. Plus usual SCC inertia.

When they get round to regenerating the old market area it will be a great opportunity to link the quays in somehow with better access etc.

Yup, it is really cut off at the moment, shame as I seem to remember it being quite a bustling area when I first moved to Sheffield in the late 90s. Hopefully the Castlegate regeneration that's finally starting to get underway will help to link it up better to the city centre.

I was talking to a friend a few days ago and she said exactly the same thing. She said it could really be a feature and is just wasted at the moment.

Is there any regeneration actually underway yet?
