Thanks for the picture Joan L - I can't imagine Newhall Road changed much between the 20s and 60s. I think I can remember my mum saying she caught the Millhouses tram to travel to work.

I went to Newhall School. Remember Mr Beal, Miss Coupe and the early morning assemblies in the hall. Remrmber well the motto over the headmasters desk "Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do . Do it with all thy might. They were great days but during the war and the Sheffield Blitz we held services for the Brown family who were killed in the Sunday night raid Dec. 14/15th December.Sadly seem to have lost touch with most of the schoolmates Johnny Crowther. Nick-Nack. Micky Horner and lots of others. Would love to get in touch with anyof them that remember.

We lived for a time at 61 Newhall Road, this being in the 1940s. A few doors up was a greengrocers, called Pepperdine I think --and later a family called Evans (son Arnold) too it on. Our front room was converted into a Ladies hairdressing salon, run by a Mrs Eardley, who also had a grocer's shop somewhere on Don Road.

Remember the bell behind the headmaster's desk? This was dedicated to the memory of the headmaster before Jerry Bronks, and he died suddenly after collapsing on his way to a football match at Hillsborough. He was running for a tram in the city centre when he collapsed.

John Elmore is my brother we lived at 7 court 2 on Newhall Road in the back to backs opposite Sandersons . I can remember fetching bowl of pudding and custard from their canteen for 4d in old money. We moved to Sicey Avenue in 1956. John is the only one of the family still living in Sheffield. The rest of the family now live in Lincolnshire

My family lived at No 61 Newhall Road, but this was in the 1940s, in the same yard as the Pepperdine's who kept the local fruit shop (a few doors away) until it passed to the Evans family. I think the Evans' son was called Arnold. At No 61, for a time our front room was taken over by a woman called Yeardley (from Don Road) and used as a hairdressers. Roy Jow lived not far from us, on the opposite side of the road. We later moved to Paget Street, but I never lived in the Newhall area again after some time in late 1951 when we moved to another part of Sheffield. However, I always remember the place with great affection. Some great people lived down there.
