'Pagoda' on Upwell Lane

Recommended Posts

I have often wondered about the building on the corner of Upwell Lane opposite the church that looks like a pogoda. Does anyone know how it came to be there? Its so little and looks at odds with everything around it but I think it wonderfully quirky, it looks like people live there. I just wondered what the story was as I always mean to ost and ask everytime we walk past :)

I think the building you refer to is (or used to be) 4 separate terraced houses. I would often get a chineese takeaway from the first building on the corner but that was at least 15 years ago now. Sorry thats all i know.

Hey I remember the Sampan...they did excellent chip butties...just the thing you needed if you had been in town and caught the last NO; 34 back home!!

I went past it last year (don't live in Sheffield anymore and was amazed to see it looking like a chinese pagoda?
