Welcome to Coney Hill

Coney Hill is a small hill located in the county of Gloucestershire, England. It is situated on the outskirts of the city of Gloucester and is known for its stunning views of the surrounding countryside. The hill is a popular spot for walkers and hikers, who come to enjoy the peaceful surroundings and take in the breathtaking scenery. The area is also home to a number of wildlife species, including rabbits, foxes, and birds of prey, making it a great place for nature lovers to explore.

One of the most notable features of Coney Hill is its rich history. The hill has been inhabited for thousands of years, with evidence of human activity dating back to the Neolithic period. In more recent times, the area was used as a quarry for the production of building materials, and the remains of old quarries can still be seen on the hill today. The hill was also the site of a Civil War battle in 1643, and there are still remnants of the fortifications that were built during this time.

Today, Coney Hill is a popular destination for visitors to Gloucestershire. The hill offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life, and its stunning views and rich history make it a fascinating place to explore. Whether you're a keen hiker, a nature lover, or simply looking for a quiet spot to relax and unwind, Coney Hill is definitely worth a visit. So why not pack a picnic and head out to this beautiful spot in the heart of Gloucestershire?
