(6.) The history of Pinstone Street

According to heritage campaigner, Robin Hughes, Pinstone Street represents Sheffield's transition from a town with ambition, to a city with prospects.

"In 1875, the council got parliamentary powers to remodel the town centre, moving the heart of the city to what is now the top of Fargate, and creating three major new streets – Leopold Street, Surrey Street, and Pinstone Street.

"This was the original ‘heart of the city’ project – 19th century style!”

Here, Robin explores the history of Pinstone Street, and how its development throughout the 19th and 20th centuries changed the face of Sheffield.
