There is not any available information we can find with the history of the hill. It does lie in the right place for a gibbet to be positioned being 171m above sea level and therefore highly visible all around. The map names it Hangman's Hill clearly as a historical reference.
Type of Device: Hill where a gibbet once stood
What is the approximate age?: 01/01/1600
