shelby46 Â Â 10 #26 Posted February 15, 2012 I think I managed to post a link to two photos of the' Mystery Church'Â http://s1255.photobucket.com/albums/hh630/mandyjf/[/url] Â The old All Saints on Lyons Street/Sutherland Road had steps similar to that, but I don't remember any trees next to it. It was knocked down and replaced with St Peters. Can anyone else remember any trees? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Shefflich   10 #28 Posted February 16, 2012 From what you say of the area she lived in this is probably wrong but, Cemetery Road Baptist Church used to have steps all the way from pavement level to doors. They went when the frontage was modernised in 1969/70. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

DUFFEMS Â Â 51 #30 Posted February 16, 2012 I don't know who it is; only that one of the bridesmaids is my aunt. Â Have you considered sending a copy to the Sheffield Star where they do a supplement produced in Saturday's edition? I'm sure that someone would recognise the church or even the bridal party, you'd reach a wider range of people, just a thought.

cainedkaty   10 #31 Posted February 17, 2012 Is that cladding on the wall to the right of the steps on the group photo? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
mandyjf   10 #32 Posted February 17, 2012 I thought the wall looked like sand stone, being pale and irregular. It's a shame this shot is slightly blurred. Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I will look into the Star suggestion, but as I don't take the Star I'll have to buy Saturday's copy to find out what to do etc. and take it from there.

AlanMN Â Â 10 #33 Posted February 17, 2012 Having seen your wedding photo I am convinced I have the answer. Â It was taken at St. Cuthberts FirVale. The steps are to the left of the entrance to the church and used to lead up to the church hall. The steps are still there I believe but the church hall has gone. The current church tower was not built at the time of your photo. It must have been common practice to use these steps because I have a photo with my sister has a bridesmaid taken in an identical fashion. Â Hope this helps Alan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
mandyjf   10 #34 Posted February 17, 2012 Thanks Alan! This is where we suspected it had been taken but couldn't quite place it. I'm going down there this weekend when I can persuade someone to come with me!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

xfox3x   10 #36 Posted February 17, 2012 Can't think of any other church that had steeper steps than the one top of South Road . I don't mean St Marys on South Rd, it's the one further up on the hill, don't know the name  That was St Joseph's church, convent and nursing home.
