Love them or hate them, we’ve lived with them for a long time, so maybe some have grown on you. Or possibly you can’t wait to see the back of them! Take a look at our picture gallery and see which ones we think are on the list.
Don’t forget to look at our Facebook group, Retro and memories - Sheffield Star, where you can join in the conversation with other readers or share your own memories and photographs. And of course there’s still our popular Saturday Retro supplement.
In these confusing and worrying times, local journalism is more vital than ever. Thanks to everyone who helps us ask the questions that matter by taking out a digital subscription or buying a paper. We stand together. Nancy Fielder, editor

10. Egg Box finally cracked
Sheffield Town Hall new extension, pictured here in 1977, was known as the Egg Box. It was much derided and apparently not a pleasant place to work but also had its supporters. The area now houses the Peace Gardens and Winter Garden/Millennium Gallery, which is probably the most successful modern building in Sheffield city centre. Photo: Sheffield Newspapers
