Sheffield Supertram depot. Consists of nine 'through road' stabling sidings - including the main seven outdoor sidings and two inside the workshop mainly for maintenance use - plus an extra tenth terminating siding within the workshop for longer term work. The inner two thirds of siding no. 10 are not electrified. Siding no. 7, the outdoor siding closest to the workshop building, contains a drive-through washing facility.
The depot also includes a paint shop with a siding into it, which isn't electrified, to allow for vehicles to be repainted on site and also an engineers siding, also not electrified, which is usually tasked with storing departmental vehicles such as road-railers. There are two main entrances, the west entrance and the east entrance.
Adjacent to the depot is Nunnery Square station, originally built as a staff-only halt but since converted into a major park and ride site for staff and passengers alike.
