But we have delved into the archives to reveal some of Sheffield's best known Victorian landmarks, which have been demolished over the decades since the end of that era, which played such a big role in the shaping of the city.
Some have been lost to fire, some to developments including road and railway projects.
They range from the theatres where our forefathers used to go to get their entertainment in an era before cinemas, let alone television and streaming, to a long gone football stadium which helped shape the history of the game in the city when it was just taking off.

We have included details of the buildings and when and why they were lost in the captions.
