My mothers family all grew up on the parson cross lytton cres there were 11 kids elsie, mary, nellie alice harold rene brian evelyn joyce eric jean their name was needham. I spent alot of happy hours playing on the grand at the end of lytton cres the built a supermarket on the land but it was called the grand because they were going to build a cinema i think. my mum still lives on buchanan cres her house is one that has just been modenised. Someone talked about sheff wed players peter swann is my husbands brother-in-law unfortunately we heard he has alzheimers but what a good player and won a few caps for england.

The houses on lytton cres immediately behind the shops have now been demolished.

 

Peter Swan was a Sheffield hero to many people. The last I heard, he ran a pub.
