Didn't the Leadmill close in June? Maybe that's why it has been taken down.

It's a bit more complicated than that. The evicted tenant is currently stripping the building of all fixtures and fittings including the sculpture above the entrance which has nothing to do with him and sheffield city council have slapped a stop order on him. The current owners are redeveloping the Leadmill into a live music venue so even if the name has gone the building's still the same building Pulp played in. Who payed for the PRS plaque anyway?

Paul Mills sounds like a bit of an eejit tbh.

He's not exactly covering himself in glory with his actions lately.

An interesting read if not seen before - https://www.sheffieldtribune.co.uk/the-leadmill-says-its-fighting-for/

The Leadmill story isn't as clear cut as has been made out

That's pretty much what I've heard and read. Mills is no hero of the people.

Jarvis told 50,000 people at Tramlines to go and nick it, so the theft was kind of authorised.

That's a weird definition of 'authorised'!

Like Tony Wilson ordering clubbers to loot the Hacienda on its last night

Bit different, the Hacienda was his club!

Looking at what else has happened with the Leadmill, it seems likely that the former operator took the plaque away along with everything else he stripped out, so it's a bit of a moot point.
