An apparatus is provided for a portable ladder which has essentially parallel side members, the apparatus comprising having a pair of arcuate arms for attachment to the upper end of each side member of the ladder, at least one resilient roller mounted on a corresponding axle or axles located between and/or outwardly from the arms, a mechanism to locate each arm on each side member and a mechanism to secure the arms to the side member, the width of the roller being at least 50% of the distance between the arms. Also provided is a ladder fitted with the above apparatus. A ladder fitted with the apparatus enables easier working for a workman working at the top of the ladder and reduces possible damage to the surface on which the top of the ladder rests.
