Welcome to Hayes Knoll

Hayes Knoll is a small hill located in the county of Wiltshire, England. It is situated near the town of Calne and is a popular destination for hikers and nature enthusiasts. The hill is known for its stunning views of the surrounding countryside, including the nearby Cherhill White Horse and the ancient monument of Silbury Hill.

The area around Hayes Knoll is rich in history and has been inhabited since prehistoric times. The hill itself is believed to have been used as a lookout point during the Iron Age, and there are several burial mounds and other ancient sites in the surrounding area. In more recent times, the hill was used as a training ground for soldiers during World War II.

Today, Hayes Knoll is a peaceful and picturesque spot, perfect for a leisurely walk or a picnic with friends and family. The hill is home to a variety of wildlife, including birds of prey, deer, and rabbits, and there are several footpaths and trails that wind their way up to the summit. Whether you're a history buff, a nature lover, or simply looking for a quiet escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, Hayes Knoll is definitely worth a visit.
