The pubs, clubs and restaurants pictured in this retro photo gallery were among the most popular of their day.
They range from the ballroom where the Beatles famously first performed in Sheffield in 1963 to the working men’s clubs that attracted some of the biggest names on the clubland circuit.
The nostalgic pictures range from an iconic 1967 performance by British screen icon Diana Dors at the old Cavendish Club to a group of women putting in their requests at the DJ booth of the Penny Farthing nightclub in 1966.
This trip down memory lane also takes you inside both the popular Hallmark restaurant at Sheffield’s much-missed Gaumont cinema and the Vulcan restaurant in the Hallam Tower Hotel.
Do these retro photos bring back any memories for you of nights out during the 60s, and where do you think was the best place to go back then?
