The Markets Zone

[ Back To Engine Room MAIN HOMEPAGE ] [ To Pub Index ] [ To Nightclub Index ]

Very Busy during the day, These places around the market are full of market people, heavy smokers, people with dogs, and dodgy looking types. Down the wicker or ( Twicker ), was a traditional old Sheffield drinking challenge. You would have to take a glass of beer in every pub along the street, which is only about a third of a mile, ( but there were about 21 establishments ), Alas, these days the area has become very depressed, and there are only two sorry looking pubs left. Maybe it is because the new ring road, which cuts the road in half, has taken about a third of the buildings from one side.
