During the summer of 2017 these premises - former home of The Sheffield Star and The Sheffield Telegraph - were sold by to Toscafield Property 2 Ltd. by Johnson Press for £3.6m. Since then, a planning application has been submitted to Sheffield City Council for permission to convert the building, which used to house 400 staff, into 283 studio apartments over five floors. The first Sheffield Daily Telegraph was published on the site in 1855. The cul-de-sac end of Campo Lane is a stone's throw away at the northern end of York Street.
