Historical interest, pretty garden to rest and have a snack, learn something new.

The ruins of the Ram Hill Colliery include a filled oval shaft, horse gin and dramway.

scheduled ancient monument lovely spot for a break

Steepish track up but then grassy slopes and woods. Pandoramic views from the hill even if you don’t go up the tower.

The deer are a lot less timid than in the wild, they're almost like sheep in behaviour. Wonderful views to each side of the hill... either the River Severn or the Cotswold Hills.

Vast parkland with herds of fallow and red deer. Lovely ancient oak trees and views over the River Severn and Gloucestershire.

We went on a guided walk (Walk in the past) and our guide Steve told us that Wotton-under-edge was a town of Saxon origins and was first recorded under King Edmond 1 in 940. It's name is believed to come from the old English Wudetun meaning enclosure near a wood. It burned down during the reign of King John and was rebuilt in 1252. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and the walk up the hill to the monument was worth it just for the fabulous views. It's a little steep and if you are unsteady on you feet this may not be the walk for you. I would say a fair level of fitness is required to enjoy the walk up the hill!

Steep walk up the hill but well worth the effort for the fabulous views.
