One of Sheffield's most famous streets is getting its latest makeover as a luxury hotel prepares to open.
The Radisson Blu Hotel is set to open on Pinstone Street, in Sheffield city centre, in early 2024. It will have a rooftop bar and restaurant, with views over the city centre, including the Peace Gardens and Sheffield Town Hall.
Ahead of its opening, we're taking a look back at how Pinstone Street has changed over the years, from 2017 all the way back to 1952, including the many shops which have come and gone.
This retro photo gallery shows lost shops from Budgens to the much-missed Sugg Sport, Beatties toy store and the Mac Market supermarket. Also pictured are lost modes of transport like the Bendibus and the horse-drawn City Clopper. How many of these sights do you remember, and what do you miss most?
