Which is the steepest road in Sheffield?

[BigJim77 10]

Steepest path is the one at the back of Robin hood pub surely !!!!!

[VintageDaze 10]

Conduit road in crooksmoor is fantastically steep too!

[TomA 10]

it may have been mentioned already but I always thought that Lodge Lane was a contender. That ALWAYS needs 1st geer to be used near the top.

hagg hill, no doubt about it.

[Noob 10]

Dobbin Hill, Greystones. No doubt about it.

I know it's not Sheffield but im intrested to know where the start and finish points for Winnats are taken from. The section between the 2 cattle grids is around 20% or 1 in 5 for anyone still useing old money. Even if it's taken from the T junction at the bottom to the T junction at the top i would think even the average % would still be way over 11%.

Blake Street is steep but Hagg Hill/Lane is jolly decent climb on a bike but the business is Ewden Bank which has a 25% and a 20% to follow.

What about Lodge Lane? That sure is a steep road!
