Peter88   10 #1 Posted October 19, 2021 I just went looking on Google Street view to see my old shop (J&F Stone) at the bottom of the Moor. Obviously, I am going back a long way to the 70's, but I last visited Sheffield maybe 10 years ago? Though it seems like last week in my head. It has all gone?? When did that happen? It does look like a thriving area now, though I am sad to think that buildings that were very important to me are gone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
