The Moor Quarter

The Moor Quarter is one of Sheffield's eleven designated quarters and based around and named for The Moor. It is bound by Furnival Gate in the north-east, Eyre Street in the south-east, St Mary's Gate to the south, and Moore Street and Charter Row to the north-west.

It is primarily a retail location, with some offices at Charter Row. Its lack of recent regeneration has seen little happen in the area since it was bombed in World War II, but there is a redevelopment plan, submitted by owners RREEF which is to increase the retail, commercial and residential capacity of the quarter to improve its nightlife, and in the short-term to house the relocated markets from the Castlegate Quarter. It benefits from a good location, centrally between the Devonshire Quarter, Cultural Industries Quarter, Heart of the City and London Road and Ecclesall Road shops. It is also close to the proposed Sevenstone development.

The monolithic Moorfoot Building is at the south-west end of the Moor. It previously housed central British government departments, but is now used by Sheffield City Council.
