The Death of Hallam Tower (The End 14-10-17), Sheffield, September 2017
1. The History
Done this before so you can find it all HERE.
2. The ‘Explore’
Kicking myself that I never went round this place while it was do-able. Then all of a sudden got the tip-off from my mate that it was being demo’ed. What follows are a series of pictures documenting the demolition of Hallam Towers. There’s probably another week’s worth of work to be done so will add to this report as it reaches its conclusion.

Can’t remember why I took so long to go back. Bit of a gap between these and the earlier shoot. Now half on the central part’s façade is gone.
