Where was the world's first steel-framed skyscraper constructed?

At 42m in height there is no way this could have been the highest buildi g in the world. What about the churches, the pyramids, the towers in Bologna... I could go on!

I've just gone down the Wiki rabbit hole and found that "Ditherington Flax Mill, in Shrewsbury, England, is the first iron-framed building in the world, and described as 'the grandfather of skyscrapers'".

Paul Steadman, you're totally right. Lincoln Cathedral took over the world's tallest building in 1311 at 525ft, it was previously the Great Pyramid of Giza since 2570BC at 481ft.
