| Castle/mansion. Can't tell the age at this distance. Could have been built for a Yorkshire business magnate or it may be earlier. NB it may have been significantly altered over the years. |

This shot is looking East from a point just West of East Bank Road, Sheffield. The shot centres on Queens Park Tower. East Bank Road is in the bottom left corner of the image. Park Grange Road runs behind Queens Park Tower and may be seen centre right of the image. Today the Sheffield Supertram runs along Park Grange Road. |

 Lovely smaller Gothic with matching stables - of note is the quite large house built below it - a dower house maybe? |

 This is Queen's Tower in Sheffield. The house still exists and is close to Park Grange Tram station. |
