On the left is The Hill View Hotel, one of several Hitchin establishments that catered for cyclists.
On the right is the glass front and the lantern of Hill's Public Hall, now Mackay's.
This hill is an outlier of the Chiltern chalk rearing through the London clay.
At the top of Church Hill we find this Swedish-style church, built in 1902 at a cost of £2678.
Blackdown is a great sandstone hill 918 feet high, and Blackdown House is a Tudor-style manor house of 1640.
Webber's Post 1923 From near Luccombe the road climbs through Horner Woods to Webber's Post on Luccombe Hill and onto the wildest parts of Exmoor.
Oving Road runs east from the High Street; this view is taken beyond its junction with Market Hill looking west, showing the mix of building materials found in the village: timber-framing, brick, local
The Norman church of St Nicholas is perched on a small hill near the castle ruins. There was a railway station nearby, but the line is now closed. Lavender Cottage dates back to the 15th century.
It is close to quiet wooded hills, and to Gwyrch Castle, a battlemented mock castle built in the early 19th century. This street is so free from traffic that a dog can sun himself in the roadway.
We are looking down on Daventry from Newnham Hill, a view that has been changed by a pink rash of housing estates as the town rapidly expanded from its comfortable 5000 in 1955 to around
Beyond are the coastal heights of Stonebarrow Hill and Golden Cap (right), which at 617ft above sea level - higher than Beachy Head - is the highest point on the south coast.
Ludgate Hill starts under the railway bridge. In 1991 Ludgate Circus was raised to allow the railway to run below ground.
On the right is St Peter's, the parish church of Blaenavon, built by the ironmasters Hopkins and Hill in 1805.
We are looking south-west down Crofts End, the lane which leads from Crofts End itself at the top of the hill behind the photographer to the main through road.
The A1 sweeps north between Moat Mound Recreation Ground and Mill Hill Golf Club, and is little changed since it was built, apart from the introduction of high level lighting standards.
Each cottage comprises two dwellings, with a central door and a tiny hall. The lane curves gently down towards the ornamental lake at the foot of the hill. CORFE CASTLE, From the Church
Mount Lane climbs the hill towards St Peter`s Church on The Mount (right of centre).
This photograph was taken from Windmill Hill, the only point in the town that is higher than the castle. The road curving up to the left of the castle is Roydon Road, known at this time as Zulu Road.
At the northern end are the Green Hill Gardens, and at the southern end, the Alexandra Gardens; while near the clock tower stands an equestrian statue of George III, erected in 1809.
Farningham is just a short distance from Eynsford, set at another pretty crossing of the Darent between ridges of chalk hills.
In the distance is Coombe Hill; since 1904, three years after this view, it has been dominated by a Boer War memorial obelisk.
Its more salubrious site was, and remains, the one pictured here on Milford Hill, just east of the city centre beyond the ring road.
Instead the hill is now an important nature reserve.
The observatory on Bidston Hill is a recognised weather observation station.
