theimposter   10 #1 Posted February 23, 2016 I am researching a book on Sheffield pubs and I have drawn a bit of a blank with the pubs at Crookes. I lived up there from 2000-2004 and I have my own memories but I am looking for stories, information and pictures on any of the following-  Ball Cobden View Masons Noahs Old Grindstone Original Grindstone Princess Royal Punch Bowl  Please post/ pm or email me sheffieldpubs@outlook.com  Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
USUK Â Â 10 #2 Posted February 25, 2016 Note that Six of the eight pubs were all within a 1/2 mile stretch of the main Crookes Road. (Though be it the Masons was slightly off on Carson Rd) The Cobden and the Princess were well buried in the side Streets. Â ps You missed the Heavygate Inn, though technically it may not have been in Crookes by about 25 yards or so Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Elmambo   25 #6 Posted February 26, 2016 There is the long gone Grindstone, now flats (opposite Broomheads). Also the "Madhouse" that was on the Crookes/Crosspool border. Can't think of any more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Elmambo   25 #11 Posted February 29, 2016 Ah yes I remember now. What's on the site of Crookes WMC?  CWMC, is still there on it's original site. Don't know when your memories date from, but all the Mulehouse Road side is pretty much as it was, the Midfield Road/Stannington view part ( the playing field etc.) was sold-off for housing years ago.
