00:00 We're winding back the clock to take a look at lost landmarks, old pubs and much missed shops in Sheffield.
00:07 From the Hole in the Road subway to the Goodwin Fountain, these pictures show how Sheffield's city centre looked during the 1960s and 70s.
00:16 Those and other lost landmarks, including the old Sheaf Market, Hyde Park Flats and the Corn Exchange, feature in this retro photo gallery.
00:26 The last of the old trams, a traffic choked Surrey Street and sunbathers in a very different looking Peace Gardens are among the other scenes depicted in these nostalgic images.
00:37 All the photos were taken by Ray Brightman and are shared courtesy of Picture Sheffield.
