Sheffield Then and Now (HQ)

My father took some Super 8mm film footage of Sheffield in the early 1980's. I thought it would interesting to see how things have changed.

+IFIRIEIEIFOIRIM Me too, Hackenthorpe village, absolutely great memories, I love talking to my grandad about the area as he was born and raised around the same area from 1942 onwards, I moved to America two years ago but I still love Hackenthorpe and the surrounding areas

[@Pentaxkay]

I thoroughly enjoyed this . Did your Dad take any older views of Sheffield or nearby?

[@richallenxbox1976]

Now that Debenhams is gone, I suspect the only people who go down The Moor now are Markets customers.

Pentaxkay I also have some video's of various Lord Mayor's Parades, they are on my page somewhere, There is also some of Arbourthorne, if you look around.
Thanks for the comment!

[@Killamarshian]

+Micky Morton No it is at Hackenthorpe, but yes it does look like the bottom of Gleadless Road when it meets Leighton Road.

[@mickymorton7148]

Sheff would be the 2nd biggest city in England if the surrounding land would have been good enough to build on without a doubt
