Devonshire Quarter

The Devonshire Quarter is an area in the centre of Sheffield, England. Its heart is the Division Street and Devonshire Street shopping areas, known for their small independent shops and variety of pubs and bars. The district also has The Forum shopping centre and Devonshire Green, one of the largest open areas in central Sheffield.

To the west, the quarter is bounded by Sheffield's inner ring road and includes a small social housing estate. Glossop Road and West Street are to the north, Carver Street to the east, and Moore Street and Charter Row to the south-east.

Future

The Quarter is designed to create an urban village of city living and retail, with the NRQ based mostly within the Devonshire Quarter.[1]

gollark: Have you tried not living there?
gollark: ```haskelldoThing :: Expr -> (M.Map Int IVal, Int)doThing expr = evalState (go expr) 0 where go :: Expr -> State Int (M.Map Int IVal, Int) go (Int x) = do vcount <- update (+1) pure (M.singleton vcount (Lit x), vcount) go (Op o a b) = do (m1, c1) <- go a (m2, c2) <- go b let prev = M.union m1 m2 nxt <- update (+1) pure (M.insert nxt (ROp o c1 c2) prev, nxt)```NONE are safe from my Haskell code.
gollark: They contain MUCH content accreted over time.
gollark: Potentially.
gollark: Featuring:- written in Rust- configuration in Lua- 60MB binary, due to Rust- concurrent, somewhat- somehow has SQLite shoehorned into it
