Tony Allwright Photo Gallery: Dorset St and Gloucester St

Tony Allwright moved to Sheffield in the 1970s. As a keen amateur photographer, he took an interest in documenting the people and buildings of many areas of Sheffield, including Broomhall.

The hundreds of photos of Broomhall that he has kindly shared with OUR Broomhall have been split into different galleries.

This gallery shows the early phase of the construction of the new bungalow houses at the top of Broomspring Lane: on Dorset St, Gloucester St and Broomspring Lane itself just down from the (now-closed) Springfield pub.
