Goodwin crater on Northumberland Road

A big hole

I walked past this big man-made crater yesterday. It is next to the university’s Goodwin sports centre:

    they bin bluiding that hole for about 7 years

  2. It’s a modern-day vomitorium provided for students returning to their lodgings
    after a non-academic night in town.

    Just a normal-sized Sheffield pothole ;)

  5. I think Prince Naseem bought it when they closed the glass factory there – he was going to build student flats, but was refused planning permission because of the local parking problems. Then it was empty for about 3 years. Presumably he, or somebody else, is now building the flats complete with car park.
