Black Hill is in the middle part of the Malvern Hills, the eight-mile ridge which here marks the border of Herefordshire with Worcestershire. Black Hill's twin summits are both on the border, and of these the north top reaches 1,010 feet above sea level, while the south top is at 840 feet.

Hiking

Black hill is one of those viewpoints on the Malverns that is great for last minute photography as there is a car park literally yards from the summit, and you get great views north to the Beacon from here.
