I think its the Sheaf It is in the open at the bottom of Granville road near the new Mcdonalds but has metal grills across or used to have then, I can remember a Royal visit one day so could maybe date it by that, I remember it was Prince Charles I was a lot younger then must be 30 plus years ago][/quote]

I know the answer to to this, I halped to plan and build this.  Porter Brook meets the Sheah under Granville Square then runs along Sheaf Street to what was Dyson House and then under the station  to the Don at Blonk Street. If you visit Sheffield Station you will see a huge log that was pulled out of the grids and a plaque was put on it.  For the life of me I can;t remember the date, got to be 1977 to 1982.
