Fargate - long-known as one of the city centre’s most recognisable streets - is a shopping hotspot which runs between Barker's Pool and High Street.
It’s been pedestrianised since the 1970s, making it an excellent spot for a leisurely walk throughout the day, particularly if you're travelling between the Moor Market and the Cathedral.
It’s got an energetic atmosphere with bars, cafes, restaurants and plenty of independent shops, making it a wonderful destination for students and locals alike to spend the afternoon.
However, Fargate, like many places in the Steel City is everchanging with shops constantly opening and others closing down. Some believe it was better back in the day, while others welcome the change, like the ones that have been carried out by the council over the last few years.
With all that in mind, we decided to ask the people of Sheffield to name something that they’d like to see change on Fargate. And as ever it generated plenty of different opinions.
