Weston Tower

A largish 1970's (?) office block in Sheffield. No history on the place, I'm afraid. It's stood empty for as long as I can recall and is pretty well sealed most of the time. There were plans to demolish and replace with a contemporary 60 story building a few years back, when most of Sheffield city centre was going to be transformed into a vibrant hub, none of which happened!

Anyway, I've wandered around the outside of this place many a time on a Saturday afternoon or evening whilst visiting the local hostelries, wondering what lies within. The crap graf on the windows enticing me, teasing me to keep looking..............

And then the chance finally presents itself, what do we have.............................a nondescript 1970's office block!!

Still, the rooftop made it all worthwhile!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually visible, at least George Barnsleys, Stanley Works, Reckord Rigway, Woolens, Bridge House, Stones Brewery plus a few behind the tower blocks and over the hills!!
 
Cracking rooftop shots,What was the silver bird remains all about?

Tis the extinct and fabled Oozlum bird which flies around in ever decreasing circles until it disappears up its own khyber (Frankie Howard - Carry on up the Jungle )
