[edit] Halfway
Halfway (grid reference SK432809) lies in the extreme south east of Sheffield, at the end of a Sheffield Supertram line. It is also home to a bus garage and as such it is common to see public transport in Sheffield apparently heading "Halfway". Halfway used to be in Derbyshire but has been part of Sheffield since boundary changes in 1967.
