Your suggestions wanted for a local hero to reopen Crosspool Tavern
Crosspool Tavern is closing for refurbishment at 8pm on Sunday 26 April, with the intention of reopening at 5pm on Thursday 30 April.
For the main opening event on Friday 1 May Thursday 30 April, Julia the manager is asking for your help.
Rather than getting a dignitary or celebrity to reopen the pub, Julia would like to find a local hero to do the honours. She explains: “It could be someone old or young who has helped in the community or raise money for charity; someone who has suffered a major illness or personal tragedy; or someone who has given their all for their country.”
If you have someone in mind you would like to nominate please pop in to the pub, call Julia at the Tavern on 0114 266 2113 or message Crosspool Taven via its Facebook page., giving the name of your suggested person and reasons why you’re nominating them. The best suggestions will be put to a vote.

Crosspool as it was 160 years ago has been revealed on a set historic maps.
The Sheffield maps were drawn at various dates since 1850 and are available for viewing on the National Library of Scotland website.
The 1850 Crosspool map (PNG, 3.3MB) shows just a handful of dwellings around the Lydgate junction and Stephen Hill. You can also see landmark buildings that have since been knocked down including Lydgate Hall and The Kings Head pub.
