Land Girl, you are right there was a pub down Strickland St, It was and still is called the Strickland Arms and its still there today. The only Sheffield Arms was the one previously mentioned which is on Hessle Rd itself. This area of Hessle Rd were "Sheff" once stood was first built up well before Strickland St was built. As you are alive today the only pub you could have entered down Strickland St was the Strickland Arms. The Sheffield Arms on Hessle Rd was demolished in the late 60s. The Strickland Arms has stood with that name for over 100 years. It was present during the 1911 census records. I think this has to be the pub you went in when you lived on Hessle Rd. If you can remember another pub by the name of  Sheffield Arms down Strickland St that you believe was demolished just after the 2nd World War, that would mean there were 2 pubs of the same name just a stones throw from each other as the Sheff on Hessle Road was definitely standing at that time. There is no record in the 1911 Census of a pub called the Sheffield Arms standing in Strickland St.

My great grandparents ran the Sheffield arms pub around 1917 at a guess.  I have a photo of my grandmother and her siblings i.e. Mary, Mona, Joan and John Smith and it says Sheffield Arms, Hessle Road on the back.  As the youngest was born 1916 and looks a little over one I am guessing it's 1917 they also ran the White Hart (not sure if it has an e i.e. Harte)
