Former Sheffield Sunday School for sale at auction after food hall plans fall through
‘An outstanding development opportunity in the heart of one of Sheffield's most sought-after areas’
A stone-built former Sunday School on one of Sheffield’s most popular streets is to be sold at auction after food hall plans fell through.
Endcliffe Sunday School is in the BTG Eddisons July auction with a guide price of £750,000.
The building has been on the market since February 2025 after Revolution Bars pulled out of plans to turn it into a food hall. The company obtained planning permission for the project in 2024.
The site also has permission for for nine apartments in the main building and four new town houses, granted in 2022.
Built in 1927 as a Sunday School, in later years it was sold to the University of Sheffield and, in 1985, became the Traditional Heritage Museum, writes Sheffielder.
The museum closed in 2011 and the building was last used by the university in 2016.
Now it is for sale, with Eddisons stating it is: ‘An outstanding development opportunity in the heart of one of Sheffield's most sought-after areas, a short walk from Hunters Bar, Sharrow Vale Road and Endcliffe Park.
‘The property comprises a particularly attractive stone-built former Sunday School occupying a level freehold site that backs onto Neill Road’.
