Jubilee Hill is a prominent hill located in the beautiful county of Herefordshire, England. It is situated near the village of Much Marcle, approximately 8 miles southwest of the city of Hereford. Rising to an elevation of 256 meters (840 feet), Jubilee Hill is classified as a hill rather than a mountain due to its height.

The hill is renowned for its breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, offering visitors a stunning vista of rolling green hills, picturesque farmland, and charming rural villages. On a clear day, one can even catch a glimpse of the majestic Malvern Hills in the distance.

Jubilee Hill is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts, offering a range of activities such as hiking, walking, and nature exploration. Several well-maintained footpaths and trails traverse the hill, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the tranquility of the Herefordshire countryside. The hill is also home to a diverse array of flora and fauna, making it an ideal spot for wildlife enthusiasts and nature photographers.

At the summit of Jubilee Hill, there is a small stone monument that commemorates Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee in 1887. The monument serves as a reminder of the hill's historical significance and adds an additional point of interest for visitors.

Overall, Jubilee Hill is a hidden gem in Herefordshire, offering visitors a chance to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the English countryside.

Harper bench on Black Hill The seat is inscribed: "In memory of Roy William Harper 1912-1973" Just one of the many memorial seats paid for by friends and relatives, but installed by the Malvern Hills Conservators who maintain the hills for us all. This seat provides wonderful views of Herefordshire Beacon, Herefordshire and the distant, blue hills of Wales.

Pinnacle Hill from the south A choice of paths. The left hand path takes one around the west side of the hill to "Thirds Land" and Jubilee Hill. The alternative is to follow the ridge path to the two peaks of Pinnacle Hill and see the bronze-age tumuli. In the foreground is one of the simple bench seats installed by the Malvern Hills Conservators.

Jubilee Hill A small, but distinct peak on the Malvern ridge. It was one of the un-named peaks until Queen Elizabeth's golden jubilee in 2002. Her son Prince Andrew walked to the top of the hill (which was adorned with a flagpole flying the union flag for the one day only) to name it.

Larch buds at Thirds Land Close to Jubilee Hill. The flowering buds will form into cones as the seasons pass. The land got the name "Thirds Land" as it was part of the Malvern Chase common handed to King Charles II as compensation for the disafforestation of the Chase.

The Gothic Well on Wells Road, Malvern An old wooden green door stood under the central arch until recently, but this has now been bricked up. This gave access to a chamber going 30 feet into the hillside to the well which supplied 30,000 gallons of water per day. During the war the chamber was used as an air raid shelter. <span class="nowrap"><a title="http://www.malvern-hills.co.uk/malvernspa/well-info/gothic.html" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" href="http://www.malvern-hills.co.uk/malvernspa/well-info/gothic.html">Link</a><img style="margin-left:2px;" alt="External link" title="External link - shift click to open in new window" src="https://s1.geograph.org.uk/img/external.png" width="10" height="10"/></span>
