This pub is listed nearly forty times in trade directories from the period 1825-1951. In 1828 and 1854 it appears as Robin Hood and Little John, otherwise simply as Robin Hood. In 1828-29 its address is listed as 1 Attercliffe Road; 1859-68 (and perhaps earlier and later) it is found at 84 Carlton Road; sometime between 1871 and 1876 it moved to 140 Carlton Road; sometime between 1883 and 1887 it moved to 548 Attercliffe Road, where it is found at least as late as 1916 and probably remained until it closed in the 1990s.<ref>See [http://www.closedpubs.co.uk/yorkshire/sheffield_robinhood3.html Lost Pubs Project] and [http://www.sheffieldhistory.co.uk/forums/index.php/topic/3531-pubs-n-to-s-keepers-picture-links/page-12 Sheffield History: Pubs N to S - Keepers, Picture-links.]</ref>

The former Robin Hood.
Robin Hood and his merry drinkers have been replaced by liberated couples and singles / Submitted by Will Larter to the now lost 'Lost Pubs Project'.

By Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2013-08-07. Revised by Henrik Thiil Nielsen, 2021-01-07.

This pub started its existence on 1 Attercliffe Road in 1825, then moved to a now lost Attercliffe street named Carlton Road, before finally at some point between 1883 and 1887 settling at 548 Attercliffe Road.[1] It still existed in 1951. Currently the precincts are occupied by La Chambre which advertizes itself as "The top class venue for liberated adults". Such a place of course has to have a French name. On the pavement in front is a poster perhaps not inappropriately advertizing "The Most Advanced Mattress in the World", while just around the corner Artan Steel Alloys Ltd. survives to remind us of Sheffield's more glorious past.
