North Hill, Malvern

North Hill is the second highest point of the range of Malvern Hills that runs about north-south along the Herefordshire-Worcestershire border, although North Hill lies entirely within Worcestershire. It has an elevation of ,〔 making it the highest point of the Worcestershire Way.
The eastern flank of the hill lies directly behind Worcester road in Great Malvern from where its summit is a brisk 15 – 20 minutes steep walk from the town centre via St Ann's road and Happy Valley. A path from the car park in North Malvern follows the lower contour of North Hill to Happy Valley and St. Ann's Well.
== History ==

Although the flint route from North Wales to Wessex lay to the north of Malvern, there is some evidence to suggest that traders passed over the Malvern Hills. Parts of an arrowhead, scraper and flint flakes have been discovered between the North Hill and Table Hill. A 19th-century guide book describes both a collapsed burial mound on North Hill named the Giant's Grave and a tump on Table Hill. These tumuli may have been connected to the Dobunni settlement in Mathon.〔Smith, B.S: 1978 ''A History of Malvern'' Allan Sutton and The Malvern Bookshop ISBN 0-904387-31-3〕
A track that runs along North Hill was known as the "Pyx Path" and was used by the priest from Worcestershire when bringing Sacrament to the hermits that lived in Malvern in the 11th Century. It was also referred to as the "Pixie Path", as it was believed to be used by faeires.〔Severn Burrow, C.F: 1948, ''A little city set on the hill: the story of Malvern''〕 The Lodge spring can be found at the foot of North Hill, off Worcester road. The ornamental fountain has a small spout and basin that is similar in design to those at St Ann's Well.〔Bruce Osborne & Cora Weaver: 1994, ''Aquae Malvernensis - The Springs and Fountains of the Malvern Hills'' ISBN 1-873809-07-7〕
