This Grade II-listed building was constructed as St John’s Wesleyan Methodist Church and School in 1881 at a cost of £7000. However, when St Luke’s Wesleyan Methodist Church, Northfield Road, Crookes closed in 1965, and its congregation joined forces to share this building, it was renamed Crookes Valley Methodist Church. The ‘new’ church closed in 2003 and after standing empty for years, it was converted into private residential apartments of varying sizes and renamed Heritage Hall & Lodge. Crookes and Broomhill can be reached behind the photographer via the upper section of Crookesmoor Road. In the opposite direction Crookesmoor Road descends towards the part of Sheffield where the Royal Infirmary once stood, on Langsett Road.
