5 Durham Road Sheffield - An Update

On 14th December 2024 I posted a blog relating to an incident that occurred in July 1960 at 5 Durham Road Sheffield . In the blog I speculated about the housing on Durham Road at the time and I have just found a postcard depicting the houses in question



 It is of course dominated by Westville J G Graves Mail Order Dept but on the opposite side are houses which would include no 5, the scene of the Pridmore tragedy. 

The scene is possibly from the turn of the twentieth century.  

The area nowadays is totally dominated by the buildings of the University of Sheffield which are uninspiring to say the least.
