Questions about Park Hill Flats and Hyde Park Flats

I'm getting a bit confused trying to work out which neighbourhood the former Hyde Park Flats are in.

The Park Hill Flats (which is basically four buildings connected together) are in Park Hill, Sheffield correct?

The Hyde Park Flats which I'm pretty sure are now Harold Lambert Court and Castle Court with St Johns Park Church in the middle, are all in Hyde Park, Sheffield correct?

Or are the Hyde Park Flats also in the neighbourhood of Park Hill, Sheffield as that's what Google Maps seems to show?

Does the neighbourhood of Hyde Park, Sheffield even exist anymore? Danstarr69 (talk) 18:43, 26 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Libraries in 2023

I have just updated the information on libraries and have left the legacy information that SCC runs the Hospital Library Service at Weston Park Hospital but can't find any information to support this. Does anyone have any information and a citation? 86.160.250.34 (talk) 02:59, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Article review

It has been a while since this article has been reviewed, so I took a look and noticed lots of uncited statements, including entire paragraphs. The article is also quite large and I think several sections can be summarised more effectively. Should this article go to WP:GAR? Z1720 (talk) 19:16, 23 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
