Steep Hill is a quirky cobbled street famous for its independent businesses. With a terrific assortment of vintage shops, boutiques, eateries, cafes, tea rooms, chocolatiers, fudge parlours, plus more, it is a great place to explore. Steep Hill was voted Britain's Great Street by the Academy of Urbanism in 2012. Due to its 16.12º gradient, it is the fourth steepest street in England, according to Ordnance Survey.

A beautiful, typically British small town with the mighty cathedral.

The famous cobbled hill that runs through Lincoln has been named the fourth steepest in the country by the Ordnance Survey at 16.12°.
Built by the Romans, originally with steps, Steep Hill connects the historic Cathedral Quarter with the more modern city centre of Lincoln. Those brave enough to walk up the hill are rewarded by independent boutique stores, tea rooms, historic pubs, and spectacular views over the city and countryside.

At the top of Steep Hill you will find the stunning Lincoln Cathedral and Lincoln Castle - both which offer more panoramic views across Lincoln and Lincolnshire from their vantage point atop the hill.

Steep Hill officially has an average incline of 16.12°, the fourth steepest in England.
