The Radical Steps at Kirkby Lonsdale are a set of stairs down from the area known as Ruskin's View, Nr St Mary's Churchyard to the banks of the River Lune. The steps are over 200 years old, they were built for Dr Francis Pearson in 1820 to divert a public footpath away from his land. He was said to be radical in his political thoughts, and because of this and local opposition to the reroute the steps became known as The Radical Steps.

The steps are quite steep and uneven in places, there are about 86 to navigate and are not suitable for disabled person's or people with walking difficulties.
