The single was 50p. A colossal sum of money at the time when the maximum fare in South Yorkshire was 25p.

Yes it was town hall it started from think it went down to the moor not sure for certain full route it took.There is a clip of it on a dvd i have of buses in sheffield done by pmp. The item on the DVD was taken by me on cini film . Hi there, You mentioned a film/DVD of the city clopper and I wondered if there's any way I could please get a copy of this? My dad used to help out on the clopper and I have fond memories of it, in fact you can just see my mum in one of the photos in the links here. It's my dad's birthday this week and in trying to find him a present I came across this thread, if I could give him a copy of this it would be amazing and make his day very special. Memories of a great time and beautiful horses. Please help if you can. Thanks so much, from a daughter who's father is impossible to buy for.
