May Hill

May Hill is a hill between Gloucester and Ross-on-Wye. Its summit is on the western edge of Gloucestershire, though its northern slopes are in Herefordshire. The hill is made distinctive by a clump of trees on its top.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = National Trust )

==Toponymy==

There is an unverified story that May Hill was named after a certain Captain May who used it as a landmark when navigating the Severn estuary, but documents from a couple of hundred years ago relate that the hill was known as Yartleton Hill and was renamed because of the May Day events held there.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = (www.longhopevillage.co.uk ) )
〕 Each May Day, morris dancers dance in the new dawn on the top of May Hill and hundreds of observers join in the celebration.〔 A ceremony on May Day morning has been carried out for several centuries; originally it included a mock battle between youths.〔
