English: The Ball (formerly Ball Inn), 287 Darnall Road, Darnall This closed public house is on the corner of Darnall Road and Basford Street. In its prime this unusual building was probably very impressive, but sadly today (April 2009) it is boarded up. Above the central second floor window are the words "Rebuilt 1904. Ball Inn". Above the windows to the left and right of this the wording is: "John Smith's Tadcaster Ales". In its Victorian heyday the brewery was renowned for its ales, but later it became just another big brewery brand.
The area around this pub has changed enormously with industries and much of the population disappearing. Although many pubs have survived in the area, The Ball has been one of the casualties. This link shows a photograph of the pub some years ago: http://www.sheffieldpubs.fsnet.co.uk/Business/pubs/balldar.htm
