What is now Champs, and was the Pomona in the 90s/00s, is at 255 Ecclesall Road. I think there was an original Pomona a bit further along.

My Ecclesall Road days were the 70s/80’s, and I do recall an older building.

I may be wrong, but wasn’t the Pomona on Pomona Street?

The original Pomona certainly had its front door on Ecclesall Road when I lived down there (mid 70's).

 

Thread about it here;
