Download coordinates as: Spring Hill is an inner northern suburb in the City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.

[1] Spring Hill is located 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) north of the central business district.

The suburb is home to an established gay bar called The Sportsman Hotel that has been operating for more than 30 years.

[6] Spring Hill is one of the oldest residential neighbourhoods in Brisbane, with many houses dating from the nineteenth century.

However, in recent decades much of the older residential and commercial structures have been demolished to be replaced by modern office blocks and apartment buildings.

[citation needed] A Primitive Methodist Church opened at 48 Leichhardt Street on Sunday 12 July 1874,[7][8] when it was described as "situated on the highest and most pleasant point of Spring Hill ... a handsome and substantially-built brick edifice, about 51 feet long and 34 feet wide ... capable of comfortably accommodating 200 persons".

[11][12][17] A government laboratory and animal facility was built in the 1890s adjacent to the Brisbane Grammar School on College Road.

This tram line, operated by the Brisbane City Council, was the steepest in Australia, with a maximum gradient of 1 in 8.

[citation needed] The suburb was also served by trams along Boundary street and St Pauls Terrace, with this service being replaced by buses in 1969.
