Men & women of steel statues
I totally agree with the letter sent in by Steve Collins (September 9). Sheffield is losing respect for all its past history. To place such beautiful figures as the Men of Steel in a not so prominent position in Meadowhall was appalling in my opinion.
The same thing happened with the Goodwin Fountain at the top of Fargate, demolished in a puff of smoke – total disregard for one of the city’s main benefactors, Sir Stewart Goodwin.
The Star, with its influence within the city, should campaign for the Men of Steel figures to be place rightfully alongside the Women of Steel outside the City Hall sooner rather than later.
