Better late than never ;D

Could Orley St be Hawley St with a Yorkshire accent? ;)

I have 2 old sheffield street directories (i have a lookup offer on here - if you need anything in the furture please pm me as i dont research in sheffield even though i was born there... lol so am never on this board)

Mushroom Lane ran from Fawcett Street to Western bank

Industry Street ran from Whitehouse Road to South Road

Rockingham Street ran from Broad Lane to the Moor (centre of town)

Pheasant yard - apple street, harvest lane

i tend to think orley street is a mistranscription or something...

Otley Street was in Walkley.It was pulled down under slum clearance in the early 70's.It was'nt too far from Industry St and ran from Burgoyne Rd at the bottom to Daniel Hill St at the top.
I am sorry but my email is not working.
