First look inside the new Hamleys toy shop at Meadowhall in Sheffield

One of the world’s oldest and best-loved toy stores has just opened a new shop in Sheffield.

Hamleys, founded in 1760 in London where its flagship branch on Regent Street still trades, has launched an outlet on the shopping centre’s Lower High Street.

It’s filled with toys and games, and represents a comeback for the brand in Sheffield, as there was a Hamleys shop on The Moor for a short time in the 1980s.
