I came across an old post on UKVRRR from someone saying he'd obtained some from John Birkett here in Lincoln.
I don't know if he does mail order but you can ask - assuming he still has any in stock!
Unfortunately his shop is on a near vertical part of Lincoln, so my arthritic knees would make it very difficult (and probably painful) to get there so I won't be volunteering to pop in on your behalf!
His opening times are somewhat restricted these days but you can find them and his contact details here: https://find-open.co.uk/lincoln/j-birkett-1309682
It would certainly be worth a phone call!
You can see the angle of the roadway here:

Access from one end is by the appropriately named Steep Hill!
