Simpkins Sweet Factory, Roselle Street, Sheffield
Simpkins have been making sweets in this factory since 1921 ... mostly they make boiled 'Travel Sweets' packed into tins. Maybe not as famous as, near neighbour, Bertie Bassett, but many locals have found good employment here for years.

Hawthorn Road and Hunter Road, Hillsborough, Sheffield
Hunter Road runs off to the right and gives access to Simpkins Sweet Factory
Image ... Hawthorn Road is in the foreground. Note that the first doorway - just to the right of the white shop window and behind the truck - is marked as having an address in Hawthorn Road even though it is round the corner from that street.

Roselle Street, Hillsborough, Sheffield
Roselle Street - formerly Rose Street* - is only a short cobbled street, with 7 or 8 houses on each side, but it does lead to the Simpkins Sweet Factory. *The name was changed when Hillsborough became part of Sheffield City, where there was already a Rose Street.

Brightside & Carbrook Co-op Branch 15 (Former), Taplin Road, Hillsborough, Sheffield - 1
A fine example of a 'local' Co-op shop on the corner of Taplin Road
and Hillsborough Place ... now being used for other businesses.
Corrected and Updated in February 2014 following confirmation on Picture Sheffield
This branch - number 15 - was originally part of the Brightside & Carbrook Co-Operative
Society, which in the 1980s merged with the Sheffield & Ecclesall Co-Operative Society
and was re-named - the more logical - Sheffield Co-operative Society.
