Attercliffe - What is it like these days?

[Guest Guest]

Does Attercliffe still exist I haven't been to Sheffield in years, but when I did live there Attercliffe was seriously in danger of being seriously run down.

 

Thanks :shock:

Attercliffe does still exist, all be it probably not as you remember it. There are a few shops and pubs still standing were the Old Banners was.

 

Going further towards Tinsley (M1) this area has been totally redeveloped and consists of new call centres, offices, hotels, pubs, Centertainment (Cinemas, Bowling, Night Clubs, Resturants) Sheffield Arena, New Police Station, Don Valley Stadium, New Centre for Sport (Being built), New National Ice Arena (Being Built) and of course Meadowhall.

 

My tip for the future, it wont be long until this redevelopment does away with all of the old Attercliffe and extends right to the Wicker.

except for the top common its pretty much dead. You get lots of knockin shops, wife swapping clubs and a few second hand shops. There's still a few pubs left station,kings head , greyhound and a couple on worksop road. The best thing about it now is the curry houses

I remember Banners. They were on the bottom of the hill and sold everything. Wow, looks like Sheffield is looking up and getting better everyday. I also have fond memories of Firth Park and Tinsley. In fact I still have relatives in both areas.

What exactly is a "knockin shop" :oops:

[mikey 10]

basically its a brothel, but would generally be disguised as a sauna

Mikey I know, Richard told me. So, Attercliffe is actually no better than it was twenty years ago. One could only hope. :oops:
