Life on Wales' steepest streets

People living on a road in New Zealand's Dunedin described this week what life is like on the "steepest residential street in the world".

At its steepest, Baldwin Street has a gradient of 35%.

But residents of a north Wales street claim theirs is a clear rival in the steepness stakes.

Ffordd Pen Llech, in Harlech, in the Snowdonia National Park, apparently has a gradient of more than 36% and it is not the only steep street in Wales.
