Def Leppard guitarist Steve Clark would have turned 55 today and new photos of his grave site were posted online earlier today.
Local Sheffield fan Def Mick posted the photos shown below. They were taken earlier today what would have been Steve's birthday in the Loxely area of Sheffield at Wisewood Cemetery.
This was also done last year on the same day.
As you can see it is a lovely day in Sheffield today (and in the south of England!) with a high of 18C/64F and bright sunshine.
Explore the area yourself with the maps shown below which give you a view of the cemetery entrance and from above. Move the aerial map down and to the right to see the grave site from above. Steve's plot is in the top right section next to the path about five or six rows down from the top. His grave is about two away from the path but can't be zoomed in on in great detail. This area is located around 5 or 6 miles away from Brammal Lane where the band first played together.
Steve's death was remembered earlier this year as it is each year by his many fans the world over.
Yesterday, 22nd April, marked 27 years since his last full UK live show with the band at King's Hall in Belfast during the Hysteria tour.
