A Site of Special Scientific Interest and owned by the National Trust, Walton Hill was quarried in the middle ages and is now a thriving habitat for butterflies and other plants and wildlife. The hill rises above the relatively flat landscape with a summit at 269 feet (82 m) that offers excellent views. At the western end stands an old windmill, now a private residence.
