These pictures take you back to 1960 Sheffield, when the last trams ran on the old network.
Huge crowds turned out to mark the occasion, and it would be another three decades until trams returned to the city’s streets in 1994.
This retro photo gallery captures the last days of the old trams, among other sights around the city at the dawn of the 60s.
The lost shops pictured include Woolworths, and Sugg Sport, on Pinstone Street; the Peace Gardens, as they are now, are seen looking very different; and you can see inside a popular cafe on one of Sheffield’s most historic streets.
A rock ‘n’ roll competition is caught on camera in full flow, a barrel organ entertains families at a fete in the city, and Sheffield’s beloved Lyceum Theatre is seen during its days as a bingo hall and social club.
Lost pubs, schools and cinemas also feature in this trip down memory lane.
Do these photos bring back any happy memories for you of Sheffield at the start of the 60s?
