From Hanging Hill, you get wonderful views that stretch over Bristol to the Severn Estuary and right into the heart of Wales if conditions are clear. A great battle of the Civil War, the Battle of Lansdown, was fought around this area on July 5, 1643.

Hanging Hill at 237m is the County/Unitary High Point of South Gloucester at Not a bad little stroll. Not much by way of parking here. A trig pointed summit with good views.

No easy climb and the hill is overrun with cars cutting from the a420/a46 to Bath or Bristol. I swear those roads are more pleasant to ride.
