Sheffield: the A57 approaches the city centre

Sheffield Parkway, the main A57 from the M1 into the city centre, is seen here with just under a mile to go. Below us, we see an old workshop on Woodbourn Road, on which the lettering "T C HARRISON JCB / TRANSPORT CONTRACTORS" can be discerned where the letters have been removed to reveal residual dirt or the previous coat of paint.
