Memories of Sheffield's controversial 'egg box'

The unpopular extension of Sheffield’s Town Hall’s dubbed the egg box cast a concrete shadow over the Peace Gardens from 1977 to until it was demolished in 2002.

So while the extension has long since gone and now the Winter Gardens stand proudly next to the Town Hall can you still remember what it used to look like?

We have dug out some pictures from our archive to show you just what it used to look like and the last pictures taken before it became rubble and dust.
