What the records hold on this place

Everything below is read from stored open data, not from the venue. Where a thing is not recorded it says so, rather than guessing.

Accessibility

Accessibility is not recorded for this venue. Nothing here is guessed from the building or the business type, so the honest answer is that nobody has recorded it. Ring ahead, and if you find out, it can be added to OpenStreetMap.

Nearest accessible public toilets

Getting there

Shalesmoor tram stop

About 468 m, roughly 6 minutes on the flat. Sheffield is not flat.

Bus stops come from NaPTAN, which is not stored on this site, so only the tram is answered here.

The building

This building is not on the National Heritage List for England. Plenty of good buildings are not listed.
