Carr Bank Road in Nether Green. Was a real pain in the arse when I used to walk home from High Storrs only to have to walk up CBR at the finish. Have known cars not been able to get up without a run up. A real pain in winter snow also. Buying a Landrover was the only option.

I've no idea!

This thread couldn't take place in Leeds, Manchester etc could it.

It's these hills which makes Sheffield such a brilliant place to live in

OK, I may curse having crawled to the top of some hill but it doesn't last for long and there's something to marvel at, seeing a new view of the City for the first time.

kent road can't qualify for the steepest because it goes back up the other side then. it's the only road i've seen with handrails on to help you get up though. my vote goes to jenkin road (my dad live at the top of it, and being unfit and walking up it isn't too much fun)
