Division Street is a street and shopping area located in the Devonshire Quarter of Sheffield, England. It is home to many small independent shops, a few large ones such as Costa Coffee and Sainsburys Local, and a few local pubs such as the Frog & Parrot, as well as a Lloyd's No. 1 bar. It runs parallel to West Street in the west of the city.

The post-box at the end of Division Street near the City Hall was painted gold in August 2012, to celebrate the Olympic gold medal won by Sheffield's Jessica Ennis.{{cite news|url=http://www.thestar.co.uk/news/local/olympics-first-class-stamp-of-gold-approval-for-sheffield-s-jess-ennis-1-4806243|title=Olympics: First class Jessica Ennis gets stamp and gold post box in Sheffield|accessdate=16 August 2012|date=5 August 2012|work=Daily Star|archiveurl=http://www.thestar.co.uk/news/olympics-first-class-jessica-ennis-gets-stamp-and-gold-post-box-in-sheffield-video-1-4806243|archivedate=14 January 2016|url-status=dead}}{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-19132479|title=Jessica Ennis saluted by Sheffield after gold medal win|date=5 August 2012|work=BBC News|publisher=BBC|accessdate=16 August 2012}}
