Pen Hill

Pen Hill forms part of the Mendip Hills plateau in Somerset, England. The hill is located in St Cuthbert Out civil parish in Mendip district.
The name Pen is believed to be Celtic for hill or tor. It gives its name to one of the four periclines which underlay the geology of the hills.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cambriancavingcouncil.org.uk/cavelife/mendips/index.html )
The summit is 305 metres (1,001 ft) above sea level and is marked by an Ordnance Survey trig point. It is the second highest point on the Mendip Hills. Pen Hill is home to the Mendip TV Mast which is 281 metres (922 ft) high. On the ground Pen Hill provides spectacular views in all directions, particularly to the south, with excellent views down to the City of Wells and Wells Cathedral (approximately distant). On clear day it is often possible to see across Somerset to the Blackdown Hills, Quantock Hills and Brendon Hills.
There are ancient remains on the hill, in the form of a neolithic Long barrow,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.megalithic.co.uk/article.php?sid=15318 )〕 which has been listed as Scheduled Ancient Monument, and a post medieval pillow mound thought to have been built specifically for rabbit breeding.
