1966

How did you figure that out, Silent?

There's a crane on the left hand side that's helping with the build of the Bramall Lane "new" stand

Either that or 1966 was the only year that a UFO was reported as being seen over Shoreham St....

How did you figure that out, Silent?

Due to the fact there is a crane jib in the top left corner, presumably building the Bramall Lane stand.

Edit. Woodie beat me to it.

That's no UFO...it's the ball from Simmo's play-off penalty kick, time-travelling.

Pointing on them ridge tiles and the chimney flaunching looks a bit sandy.

I think the flange and buttock plates also need some attention.

Usually the case when you get wrong side of 50

Harwood St?

I think it was listed as Thorp Close?

That looks surprisingly the same now!

The shiny new building on the old police station / glory hole site at the Manchester Road/ Fulwood Road junction is to be a residence I believe.

Yes, that's the next street to Harwood. "Round the lump" as we used to say.

Just down that road (Glossop Road) on the right hand side was Woodhouse Plumbers who we used in one of my earlier jobs.

My Pavlovian reflexes have just kicked in. There used to be a sweet shop on there that I’d press my head against the window for hours. Think there was a delicatessen on that parade as well that only used to get visited for ‘fancy stuff’ at Christmas.
