Hill top web site for all UK people
I was trying to find any web sites with information on Hill tops to talk to people and could not find any. So I have made a CB Hill top web site for the UK.
Here is the link and there will be a link to here soon.
http://cbhilltopsites.weebly.com/
I hope that people will help me to help others.

Re: Hill top web site for all UK people
there is a list on wiki called "A list of highest paved roads in uk" or try the same for scotland or wales as well, you could at least add them as a start.

Bing Maps can switch to ordnance survey maps which would show View points which is helpfull

Re: Hill top web site for all UK people
There seems to be an error in your webpage already - - Theres an entry in the "North" section which is away down south in County Durham, some 25 or 30 miles south of the line of latitude that sits halfway between the Northern and the Southern extremities of the UK.

Re: Hill top web site for all UK people
I can definately recommend the following
Burton dasset hills along the B4100 (formely A41)in s Warwickshire
Edgehill B4086 further up the same road turn right after the villiage of Warmington
Rollright standing stones Near Chipping Norton
and the A361 in between Banbury and Brailes there are several high points and stunning views over the cotswolds
