Date of Heeley tram depot[edit]

I changed the date of construction of Heeley tram depot from 1898 to 1878 as this is the date given by English Heritage at Images of England ([1]). If they are wrong then it can be changed back. JeremyA 21:55, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That's ok, after checking I also have 1878. I have started a gallery solely for the old Sheffield tram on the commons and went back to Heeley depot two days ago (where weather wasn't as rubbish as it was when the photo in the article was). I am off to the Bus Museum tomorrow, aka Tinsley tram depot: yummy. Cheers Jeremy and nice work with the rolling stock, Captain scarlet 23:04, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. I know that they have butchered it and built apartments (or something) there now, but how's about a photo of what's left of the depot at Shoreham Street too. JeremyA 23:37, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The depot at Heeley has not yet been built on (see Commons pics). Shoreham Street has built on and only the front portal and towers remain. Since I'm going to Tinsley depot, I'll get off in town and take piccies of Shoreham Street Depot too. Tell me, was the old bus depot on Queens Road (Now Netto/Carpers & Beds) a tram depot too ?

The Queens Road works was at the junction of Queens Road and Charlotte Road. It wasn't just a depot--they built a lot of trams there too. I think that the building was still there in the 1990s (stupidly, I never photographed it), but it has been demolished now. Last time I was in Sheffield I passed the site and there were shops there, but I can't remember what. When I was searching the web for info I found a note of the Kelham Island page that suggests that they salvaged some of the stonework from the entrance to the depot and are (were?) using it in an exhibition.

Yes just as I thought, I remember it, it was Olive Grove bus depot's twin if I may say so due to the facg both buildings were used by Mainline. It's now Queens Road Retail Park which includes Netto and Carpets & Beds. Captain scarlet 16:23, 1 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
