    One thing I miss about Meadowhall is the arcade machines that were upstairs at the Oasis.

      WHAT HAPPENED TO THE ARCADE???? I CANT FIND ANY PICTURES OF IT ONLINE. ITS ALMOST LIKE IT DIDNT EXIST. I remember there was a bowling alley and everything in it.

    My dad helped part design this when he was working as an architect for Sheffield Council. I remember the late nights when my dad used to stay up working by his drafting board working on his designs and the model constructed. It was such a proud accomplishment!!

    My grandad was one of the builders of it and helped build the dome he wrote my mums initials on it that say
    N.M but her initials now are N.S because she's married 😌

      I worked on Meadowhall it was a good job, I worked using a cherry picker and did the snagging on the steel including the Dome.

    Well done, Sheffield city Council ; promoted this place to death - "Come to Meadowhell" they cried.
    So we did.
    Then the city centre died a death. Then they cried, "Please come to the city centre shops".
    City council: arseholes in charge choose who's in power.

    • @madratlady
      @madratlady Před 3 lety +2

      The city died a death thanks to Thatcher, she killed manufacturing in the north, when people aren’t working, they’re not spending.
