Leeski 0 #1 Posted January 23, 2019 Hi, first post on the forum. Does anyone know who actually owns the now defunct Charlie Brown garage on Penistone Road North , opposite the Sheffield Wednesday ground. It’s an iconic garage with its 2 concrete towers on its roof. Wondered if it was up for sale and by who. Done some googling but to no avail Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

carosio 186 #6 Posted January 24, 2019 I always suspected the towers (pedestals) were designed to hold a car on top, like a mini, although it would have to be secured against high winds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
