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.

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

And if we're going past the Banner Cross then the Prince of Wales at the top of Carter Knowle and the Wheatsheaf by the cricket ground at Parkhead.
