Historic Bredon Hill stands proud in isolation. From its 981-foot (299 m) summit you can gaze out across Worcestershire to the Malverns and south into the rolling Cotswolds. Scenic magnificence.
The hill was once an Iron Age hillfort, known as Kemerton Camp and it then became an important Roman encampment. In the 18th century, the squire of Kemerton Court erected a small stone tower, Parsons Folly. A number of ancient standing stones also adorn the hill.
