Black Swan Walk in Sheffield City Centre
Just metres away from Sheffield's busiest thoroughfare is this quiet alley, which despite its proximity to Fargate (and unlike bustling Chapel Walk which runs parallel to this walkway) is empty of commercial premises and footfall alike. There is an old iron tram rail and turning circle which can be seen next to the green bin in addition to lots of nice architectural features on the buildings including stained glass windows, stone cornices and pediments and the curved Flemish gable in the centre of picture. Despite its name I believe the pub that existed most recently in this yard was called the White Bear not the Black Swan and despite passing this alleyway entrance on hundreds of occasions it wasn't until a friend suggested we take a look yesterday that I paid it any heed. Surely this neglected historical enclave could be transformed into a great little independent shop and business arcade in the future?

Sheffield: view along Fargate and farther afield
A view from Image, similar to Image but from higher up and thus bringing into the picture much of the northern suburbs of the city and the countryside beyond.

2 High Street and 9 Fargate, Sheffield
Two attractive buildings, both by Flockton, Gibbs & Flockton. The former is very French with its pronounced mansard roof and channelled lesenes at the angles. Nice carved pediment too (Image]). Built 1895 as an auction house (now Caffe Nero). Grade II listed.
The narrow front of the latter reflects "the width of plots preserved from much earlier development". It dates from 1889. (Now occupied by Virgin Media.)
