Dear Dalum

I think you are right, red with cream accents.  I forgot what it looked like for a second.  Having a break, ive been googling too long im seeing things.

Ive been looking at what is hanging from the bracket under the crown.  It looks like a very spiky crown.  Maybe it is the Crown and Cushion after all, we must not rule that out.

Any other suggestions?

There's a link to Sheffield pubs.

 I've waded through some of them including all the ones that have "Railway" at the start, I've also gone through the "A's". There are old and new photo's, if it is a Sheffield pub that's not been demolished it may be shown on there.

I have looked at most of the site before.  Cant say I have looked at every one but most of the obvious ones.  Not found anything yet,  maybe it is more under a hotel rather a than pub.

Hi Sue,

Oh well, I'll keep my eyes open. I've a particular interest in Sheffield anyway. Sorry that the very long link I posted seems to have distorted the page. I'm new to this, learning as I go along. Unfortunately the kids are off school this week (half term) and since I've found this website I keep forgetting to feed them etc. They've never got away with watching so much junk on TV. I've only just remembered to start cooking the evening meal. Whoops!

I'm still wondering who has the original...as a better scan would help incredibly...
anyone who's brought it in to work on knows it's the smallest of the small for web
viewing only ...Can't we ask for a good shot of things so that you can solve it sooner...? 
  There are wonderful ornate window decorations...either wrought iron or beveled
cut glass with leaded separations...

 The crest seems to have a three point base...enlarged to show shadows it almost
has a floral appearance, as I see eight protrusions in all...although this is likely just
pixels fooling me...it may be a scroll at top and bottom.

Hi Annie

I've had a quick look, but although there's no link on this email it still appears to be super-wide. I'll get my pal to come around and show me what to do, I'm a bit of a techno-phobe and hopeless at reading "destructions".

Hi there all,
The mention previously about The Station Hotel being the Victoria is current, in c1900 the Station Hotel was on The Wicker, just at the side of the Wicker Arches, the current Victoria was at the back.
all gone now road redevelopment, but I will look for some stuff on the web.
