About the tour

We run two, 90 minute, resident-led tours of Park Hill every Saturday and one on selected Thursday evenings between April and September. Each tour is limited to 15 participants to allow for an informal, conversational walk around the estate with plenty of time to ask questions, and to minimise the disruption caused to residents.

Tickets are £10 each and can be booked online.

Each tour includes:

a history of the development of Park Hill
an introduction to it’s architectural concepts and details
a ride in the glass scenic lift to the top floor
access along the Streets in the Sky
a look inside a renovated flat*
access to residents private garden

Our tours take place regardless of the weather so please come prepared. Parts of the tour take place outside and even under the cover of the Streets in the Sky, the wind can find us on a blustery day. That said, our evening tours are timed to give participants the chance to see a sensational sunset set off against the skyline of the City.

Our tours start at the lower end of South Street close to the Urban Splash Sales Office - click here for a location map and directions.
