These black and white photos from our archives take us on a trip down memory lane to Sheffield in the 1980s.
It was a time of much change, both in Sheffield and nationally.

Bars, shops, cutlery workers, famous faces, a beauty competition and a Dalek on The Moor all feature in our Retro gallery photo.
