Hi, new to this blog. HJHill I have a relative Percy Hayward who was managing a Sheffield cinema in 1939. He was living in Darnell with his wife May who was the cinema’s cashier. I am wondering if you know of him and which cinema he might have been managing. He lived on Elmham Rd in the 1930’s right through until his death in the 1970’s.

Use the Street View, above, to continue along Greenland Road (follow the blue car: in the 2014 version of SV) and turn to view the end wall of Aries Lighting. There’s a bricked-up exit door on your right and brick repair/infill on your left (formerly another exit?).

Look up and at the apex of the gable there’s a sign announcing “½ mile to Balfour Carpets” the other former cinema in the Darnall area of Sheffield.
