Sheffield retro: 26 nostalgic photos show how different Sheffield looked in the 60s

Many of the buildings and other landmarks have disappeared in the decades since these nostalgic images were taken around the city.

Shops have changed, pubs have closed, and, in many cases, the layout of Sheffield’s streets and green places has been radically altered during the intervening years.

The old Castle Market, Walsh’s department store, and The Gaumont Cinema at Barker’s Pool are just some of the beloved buildings and businesses that have been lost since these fascinating pictures were captured.

This retro photo gallery shows the huge changes that have taken place not just around Sheffield city centre but out in the suburbs, including Crookes, Heeley, Hillsborough and Attercliffe.

Do these photos bring back any memories for you? If they have you pining for the 60s, you may enjoy this gallery featuring some of the best images taken across the UK back then.
