Hi Elaine, Thank you for your response. So Lofthouse Road is in Owlerton not Wadsley. No wonder I couldn't find it. I would really appreciate a copy of the map. I'm trying hard to find my way about Sheffield but not finding it at all easy. Interesting snippet re Bassett's and congratulations on the Sheffield Indexers site.
