In 1829, the Saint Helena Railway Company built an inclined-plane cableway on Saint Helena.〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=14 August 2011 )〕 It was intended to lift supplies from the port and capital of Jamestown up to Ladder Hill Fort. It was rebuilt as a long, steep staircase, by the Royal Engineers in 1871 now known as Jacob’s Ladder.〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=14 August 2011 )〕 It is designated as a Grade I listed feature.〔(Land Planning and Development Control Ordinance ) Appendix 3: Listed Buildings〕 The staircase is now lit and can be used to climb up Ladder Hill, where the suburb of Half Tree Hollow has developed. The staircase consists of 699 steps and ascends . A timed run takes place up Jacob's Ladder every year, with people coming from around the world to take part. ==References==
