Twenty steps is next to the bridge on the opposite side to the canal and leads by a rough path to Hill Street. There's not 20 steps but everybody called them 20 steps...I wonder why?
Tealeaf may know?

Would that be the coke ovens? I used to get there by going along the canal bank from the back of the Hare & Hounds.
